Weekend

[cjwatson]

Saturday started off fairly quietly; I slept late as usual, and then did some increasingly urgent Debian work and a bit of laundry and half-hearted room-tidying, nothing terribly earthshaking. Later in the afternoon Peter and I wandered over to the Carlton and watched mad people bungee-jumping towards a concrete car park. Rather them than me, but it was entertaining to watch the various Superman impressions. After that, lark_ascending and crazyscot invited me over to help eat their large quantity of lamb, which followed by ice-cream and chopped stem ginger made for a very nice dinner indeed. (Thanks!) I'm sure I'd made a mental note to go into town for something or other on Saturday afternoon, but let's hope it wasn't very important.

Today I overdosed on children (hic). My nephew Finn turned three on Wednesday, so I spent most of the afternoon at a family party over at my sister's, which included three of his even younger cousins on her husband's side. Finn seemed to enjoy the radio-controlled car I got him, as will his dad I suspect. :)

Bedtime now - mmm, sleep. Tomorrow I need to stop off on the way to work and pay our council tax, otherwise Bad Things will happen. Sigh. It's so nice of them to send a seven-day demand after I'd made the effort to go to the council offices to ask for a bill to be sent, because I'd lost the old one with the amount and the address we're supposed to send cheques to. I think I'll have to succumb and set up a direct debit there.

So much for going home to work. I had entire party ring you up and persuade you to come along and you weren't even there. Bah.
