Morning,

A 13 hour journey home, 4 hours sleep and up for work. I'm not sure a 16 hour shift is what I need today!

    Ooo, tough day for ste-t!

    Mornin' window lickers,

    A good weekend was had - Saturday was a tough 13 miles overt the Malverns with Bails followed by struggling to recover on Sunday (oh yeah, this bodes well for the CC2CC!). A nice man visited my house and repaired my broadband though, which meant I was finally able to catch up with the Andorra DH (oh interwebz, where have you been!).

    Sunday afternoon also saw a bbq in the depths of Bedfordshire - the very posh depths of Bedfordshire.

    I'm now in work discussing plans for the week and it looks like any thoughts of a quiet week was largely illusionary!

    Onwards! To coffee! And frikken layzur beams!
    How would I write my own epitaph? With a crayon - I'm not allowed anything I can sharpen to a sustainable point.

    ste_t - asleep in the store room already?

    Morning

    Great having the family back, but no-one cooked any food yesterday as we eat out - so no different to the last week!

    Today is work meh as I prep for meetings, later the new au-pair arrives - so fingers crossed she is a looker, but as the wife picked her, I doubt it

    Good weekend was had but I don’t feel rested at all, still suffering the effects of all the sporting efforts.

    Second week in charge so it’ll be a busy one again but plenty of things to look forward to as well.

    Week 2 of weight loss regime going well but I do miss getting H’d now and again.

    Onwards to meetings, spreadsheets and bureaucracy. Minion recruitment interview sorted out but they are still 4 weeks away.

    Later……

    Pictures please, we'll judge for you.

    Normality has resumed. Sat around like an idiot because not only has chief minion locked my keys in the office for safekeeping but she is also bloody late for work. Head chef has a key for the office but has also text me to say she will be late.

    I vowed not to shout at anybody today yet I am struggling already.

    Morning bumders

    Horses today, typically it's raining. Still I don't need to be there until 10 so I'm still lounging around. Not sure what time I'll be finishing tonight but hopefully it won't be too late either.

    morning all,

    i'm still hungover from my birthday on Saturday where i'm sure I consumed most of a bottle of sailor jerry's, 4 cans of red stripe and 2 bottles of wine :shock:

    spent yesterday monging around and went to bed at 8.30 :lol:

    today will involve more work avoidance and hopefully an early finish

    laters :D

    Saturday was spent laying the patio and an abortive attempt to change a front wishbone on the BMW (the ruddy parts suppliers sent to right hand arms, only foud out after getting the left one off GRrrrrrrr, yesterday quieter as the rain put paid to the patio, so we went to see Wolverine (Tao is FIT!).

    And you got to see me in a dress Waylander!

    Muddy puddles while riding yesterday washed off with a dunk in the swimming pool.

    Spent about 18 hours over the weekend cutting and helping make 4 bridesmaid dresses. Mine just needs some adjustment to take it in on the waist and then it's done.

    I would quite like this week to be over already. One minion on holiday which means stacks of work to do and stupid meeting for 2 hours this afternoon. Low carb diet in the run up to the wedding has been put on hold for a week as I fear I may injure someone if I don't have carbs while working late.

    I heard the womens' open was on this week :wink:

    Evening Fisters,

    Average day finished well - we didn't have much in the house for dinner so had to make use of the weekend brekky supplies - Full English Dinner it was then. Win :mrgreen: Luckily I'm pedalling in to work tomorrow to burn off the 3,000 calories I've just consumed...
