Sunny days.... well it has been anyway. Bloody windy though, is it just my imagination or has it been a LOT windier this year ?

Anyway.
Fri. WFH and out for tea with the family.
Sat. Mostly chilling, maybe a gentle MTB with @crust
Sun. Uplift day at a place i've never been and no idea if i can ride it oh !!!!
Mon. No plans, need to start getting some packing sorted for house move, or at least some planning of it.

Fly home tomogga, looks like the weather is about to turn so not too upset about it.

Will miss the service, it's gonna be a pain getting my own drinks

Leaving this morning for a bike club weekend in Oban.

14 of us going, some leaving later because of work.

The weather looks okay for today but Saturday might be a bit iffy. First time to put decent miles on the GS since I got it really.

Where been. ?

Icmeler in Turkey, it's a walk from Marmaris.

Took a punt on a cheap Holiday right at the start of the season, the week before we arrived was pretty crappy apparently and next week doesn't look great, been sunny and mid 20's all this week.

The hotel has been one of the best we've ever stayed in, big up to the Hotel Aqua.

Out for a run with the twat-hound this morning. WFH today and nothing planned for this evening. A pre-made garden gate is being delivered today so that might be done this weekend.

Sat. Usual gym class and coffee. There has been talk of jet washing the drive. Much quicker if we both do it as one can jet while the other sweeps all the dirty water and crap off, move bins, untangle hoses, etc. Nothing planned for Saturday night either, which is unusual.

Sunday. Around friends' for lunch. He's been in and out of hospital since Feb after a 'minor op' on his ankle. Infection, clots, you name it. Out now (permanently, we hope), but still got a PICC line, vacuum dressing, etc.

Monday. Gym class in the morning and not much else. Hopefully catch up with friends and take the mutt on a long walk. Weather taking a turn for the worse, but we're hardy.

Not got much work to do today, so will probably finish early and cut the lawns.
Tomorrow out for a family meal in the evening. Sadly my boy is on a stag weekend in Lisbon, so wont be there, but should be good anyway.
Sunday, the wife is out to see Devil Wears Prada 2 in the afternoon, so i was going to go for a ride on my bike, but I think the weather is crap? So, dunno.
Monday wife is working so mooch bout doing stuff...

Boringly it's a three day weekend cos today is Labour Day - bonus is that we got croissant with breakfast so that was nice!! (Usually that's only on a Sunday! And doesn't usually happen on a normal bank holiday )

Normal boring shit but no visitors this weekend

So, sitting inside or outside. Trying to persuade myself to go talk to other inmates. Inside will usually be cross stitch or reading, outside, gazing at the mountains I love and maybe reading.

I am definitely anti-social !!!

First of 3 rest days. Friday is doing stuff around the house before going out with a bunch from work. It’s celebrating a year since we last went out, so few non alcoholic beers and a very nice curry to look forward to.
Saturday is to the F’s, Toby carvery at very at some point through the day then relaxing.
Sunday is stuff on her house that needs doing.
Monday is an annual leave day, so home, shopping delivery, back to it on Tuesday.
Enjoy whatever you’re up to
Mick

Anti-social in that you like to smash the place up and swear at the other inmates or unsociable in that you're a bloody miserable loner?

You think I can get anywhere with smashing things up? From a wheelchair, with one working leg and one and a half working arms ???

Nah - literally anti-social - I seem to be anti being sociable

Taking missus to airport about 6:00 so the weekend might get messy

Asocial.

Anti social is lobbing bricks through folk's windows n' schitt.

I've four raised flowerbeds to dig in,make level and line. Two finished and two still to do.

Maybe it'll rain.

A social what?

WFH today. Over to the parents this evening to install a cabinet in the new downstairs toilet - that's the last thing to do in there I think

Sat/Sun/Mon: mix of gardening, tidying up the out-buildings, DIY, and mates coming round. We'll see how much actually gets done

Today was work stuff and getting ASHP and solar quotes for church hall. Some admin, taking the usual school Eucharist in the morning.

Saturday: Install CCTV at the smaller of the churches. Eufy Homebase 3 unit, the Homebase 2 kept dropping the cameras, so a change was needed. Coffee morning with raffle and then a quiet afternoon of working on my sermon.

Sunday: 9.30am service followed immediately by the APCM (Annual Parochial Council Meeting) and then a quiet lunch. Might fix the car door if I have the energy... most unlikely!!
