    On Saturday I shall be caught up together with the risen dead in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So that I shall ever be with the Lord.

    Sunday, not sure, probably in the park trying to get within boasting distance of Wrath Rob/Jzed's 18:01 (wtf? Well done fellas...). Followed by gentle recovery in the pub with a roast in the afternoon.

    Saturday sorted, thanks to the London trip ideas thread.

    Not bothering with Sunday as the world's due to end on Saturday night apparently. Bit of a shame as I've got a squash court booked for Tuesday.

    I'm going to find someones lovely garden to sit in. Unless Ms DDD is away, in which case I will stay in curtains closed and play Star Trek.

    No, he allegedly ate part of an animal, which was contaminated (depending on what your own view of "contamination" is), which he didn't know about (depending on what your own view of "knowledge" is).

    Maybe some riding, but hopefully taking down a shed and having a BBQ with loads of (uncontaminated) beef.
