    Well my weekend, as nearly always, starts this afternoon but I have said I will try my damn best to have a quiet one this weekend. So basically it will start with a nice meal and a few Bembels of Ebbelwoi tomorrow evening with friends. Thats it so far, I think I'll just let it flow as it comes and as long as I do all my paperwork on Sunday then I'll be fine (as long as its not like last weekend when Frau D. rang me up at work and said she found a piece of paper in my trousers with the telephone number of someone called Chrissy on it!)
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

        Good on ya! Try not to pinch the captains silverware! Also, a tip from a salty-sea-dog, remember your etiquette and be sure to complement the Captain's wife on the size and pertness of her breasts.*

        *It distracts people long enough for you to steal the aforementioned silverware...

          Friday I've a meeting until 17:30 so won't get home until half seven The missus normally cooks something nice on Fridays so will eat and put my feet up.

          It's only two weeks until the Father-in-Law moves into the annex on the side of our house so Saturday I'm moving his workshop. I've hired a 3 1/2 ton Luton with a tail lift and a pallet trolley. Me and three mates are moving a lathe, milling machine, drill stand and various other bits of kit to the newly constructed workshop in our garden. We'll also move the rest of the furniture he's taking at the same time and will dump the rest.

          Saturday night we're out for dinner and to take a look at a friend's motorhome as we're thinking of getting one.

          Sunday I'm still wiring the workshop itself so will do that if it's raining, if not I've some concrete to mix for the base of the new shed which I'll put up next weekend.

          Back to work on Monday for a rest!

              Tomorrow morning I shall probably get my lardy-arse to the Gym.

              Tomorrow evening I will be wearing my apron and gloves.

              Saturday I shall be building wardrobes and swearing a lot. Evening I shall be drinking wine over a convivial meal with friends and family.

              Sunday morning I will be admiring the newly built wardrobes. (In reality waiting for CM and her sister to finish making the breakfast. )

              Monday morning back to the grindstone.

              CM got you cooking on Friday then ? Or do you mean a different type of apron and gloves ?

                      My favourite vineyard sent me* an email inviting me to try their new 2011 Pinot Gris release so I will be popping over there at some point this weekend.

                      I'll probably have to watch some Rugby too.
