I hope not Monty. Seriously these roads were undriveable in a car at 10 mph and absolutely shocking condition. I m not taking a little stretch but mile after mile of proper pot holed road. It was dangerous if I'm honest.

Could have easily cracked a rim or worse at barely walking pace. Genuinely 3rd world roads and these were so called main A roads. Disgusting imo.

Dying from a hangover.

Was having a nice romantic meal at home with the missus as kids were at a sleep over. On the second bottle of wine the missus decided to have a downing it in one competition and it got very messy and silly from then on in.

Suffering now but we have both agreed to go for a run (facepalm) I guess it's make or break hangover time :?

Went out shopping today. Spent around 80quid on new clothes...I don't spend my money on designer things anymore don't see the point. 50quid in a top doesn't seem value for money in my opinion so spent it in Primark got a lot of new things really happy with them all!

And we had a Nandos out. It's was lovely, but I really don't like the seating arrangements you feel fat too close to people for comfort in my opinion!

Researching drones, would love to get into a bit of aerial photography. The Phantom 3 looks really good and highly recommended by a bloke out here that is a commercial drone pilot as a side job.

Anyone got one?

Done the remote IT training package. Silly sods had left a "review" option on one of the big quizzes which saved me about an hour.

Took the dog for a walk with the wife and kids.
What could be better than a canalside walk with the family in the sunshine.

Ooh, I don't know...

Maybe a canalside walk with the family in the sunshine where the dog DOESN'T jump into the canal and can't get himself out, and I have to pull him out by his collar!

Still, we can't have everything!

Well yesterday was eventful.

Grand parents were minding the kids, me and the missus were chilling and then we got a call to say the youngest had been injured at laser quest.

They bring home and he looks like a pirate with a patch on his eye. We remove the patch and there's a deep cut above his eye so off to A&E.
Two hours later action man is on his way home with stitches and what will definitely be a little action man scar.

Wakes up this morning with a black eye too so I'm sure he will be telling his class mates tall story's of his adventure this morning and getting lots of attention.

He's ok and his brother did a really good job of looking after him which was nice to see. I was the same as a kid and always banging or cutting something (blush)

At least he isn't damaged in any 'serious' way if you know what I mean..

Sounds like he's got a story for life!

As above glad mini Blade is ok. Scars are cool but I'm sure it will fade over time anyway. No experience but I believe bio-oil can help.

Very busy at work. We've got 3 big hearings in the next 2 weeks, the first of which is tomorrow in Norwich, so my alarm is set for 5am (doh)
