      Yes thank you.

      Went up to Alice Holt parkrun on Saturday to run up and down the hills. Then had TdF marshall training - quite fancy the flag waving role - standing on a bollard in the middle of the road waving a yellow flag. Probably suits me better than interacting with people. Got my uniform - hideous and about 17 sizes too big for me - apparently I'm to wear it with pride. I've attacked the T-shirt with the sewing machine, but not sure much can be done with the clown trousers.

      Sunday, did a nice 40 mile bike ride with the guys from clientCo. Bangers and mash for tea.

      What about you.

        It had its highs and lows!

        On Saturday we spent 11 hours sorting the garage and made a total of 4 dump runs and 1 charity shop run. I also have a stack of things to give away or dump if no one wants them.

        On Sunday it was my father in law's birthday bbq which was great and then, after putting the kids to bed, I went over to get refitted and remeasured for my new armour. I wore the body protection as the armourer walloped it was a large hammer and barely felt a thing, which was nice. We also had a chat about armour developments and the future of the art which is a nice way to relax after a manic weekend.

          I spent most of Saturday catching up on admin, and then yesterday I went over to help fix a friends bike. I then massively underestimated the heat and foolishly went for an 8 mile tab. I'm now sore and a little sunburnt.

            Knackered. I told your wife I was seeing her sister when i was banging her from behind and had to hang on for dear life. Think I've popped my shoulder.

              I fell out of a plane attached to a lovely man with a parachute - it was most excellent

                What should have been a few quick system checks turned into a day and a half working. Joyous.

                    great weekend thanks

                    little one's Birthday party BBQ & Beer with family & friends.

                    only down side was that the Garage door broke in the morning, our spare fridge & freezer is in there so we had fun getting the burgers out.

                    just enough food & booze so perfectly planned thanks Mrs V.

                    Little lady was totally knackered after it so I got a decent nights sleep.
