Easter Weekend
Anyone up to anything?
House hunting tonight.
The wife and kids are supposed to be away Friday and Saturday, but the kids are having second thoughts. Much depends on what they're doing.
If they want to stay at home we'll go out on Friday evening for a meal.
Saturday will be various boring household jobs. I need to clean the Versys
Sunday eating Easter eggs and getting fed at my mum's like a pig being prepared for slaughter
Monday being pushed back into the sea by Greenpeace

Re: Easter Weekend
Today I am making my way back from lux and crashing with a few glasses of wine.
Tomorrow we pick up the caravan and head down to Weymouth for the long weekend. I am currently praying for the traffic and weather gods to be kind to us, or a sizable amount of gin may be drunk!

Re: Easter Weekend
All the plans have gone out the window.
Today (Saturday) the full Brady Bunch was supposed to be going up the coast to have a lunch with Jess’ parents.
But her Dad is dealing with kidney failure and dialysis and as such is very prone to infections. So I was out due to my chest infection ( and I wasn’t very interested in dealing with Jess’ sister while I am still dealing with headaches) which means my kids are hanging back too. Then yesterday Jess’ youngest came down with a rash and vomiting. Managed to get hm in to a doctor who said it was likely just a virus. He seems ok this morning but we didn’t want to risk him being in a car for 4 hrs and puking or infecting her dad, so he’s hanging back with my kids and I.
So, Jess and her daughter are heading off alone!

Re: Easter Weekend
Dont blame you, looking at some of the footage from there today, it does not look good.
Yesterday I watched a mini on the M4 crash on its own, no other car around... sitting out in lane three, for no reason, then hits the centre and ends up going backward across the other lanes Car dash cam caught it.....
