alright mate yeah cheers, how's yours?
It's been good! Had a lovely weekend, took the kids to the park for a few hours and had a picnic, my eldest bumped into his friend from school so they just went off playing for a while, a win for us as he was moaning he wanted to go home and was getting angry before his friend appeared. Came home and had a BBQ.
Sunday we had a day out to Bolton Abbey, had a picnic and some walks, it was lovely! And another BBQ when we got back!.
Nice one mate, sounds grand! My kids just cannot play together at the moment - they're like a pair of magnets and either want what the other one is playing with, or just annoy each other to the point of tears. Telling them "just play with your own toys" lasts about twelve seconds until they can't resist fucking with each other's game or toys.
Glad you're enjoying the barbie weather!
Oh don't worry, mine do that too! Anything my eldest has, the youngest wants it too, or wants to copy. They're constantly aruging over the trampoline as whenever he (eldest) gets on, she (youngest) gets on, but he doesn't want her on it so he climbs off, so she climbs off. He immediately sees its free again and gets back on, and repeat over and over and over and they're both complaining going "daaaaadd!!!".
Tough because it was an 8 day week condensed into 4 days due to the BH Monday here.
But, nice weekend to chillax and now I'm ~~almost ready~~ less depressed about work already starting again tomorrow.
The weekend was great, and we got a lot done in the garden while enjoying the weather.
Are you roses/flowers type, or a carrots/potatoes type of gardener?
I’m more of the BBQ decking, raised flowerbed for the tortoise and somehow keep the front of the house buxus alive type gardener.
Oh nice. Can I get a pic of the little green fella?
I’m away at the moment, but I’ll try to remember to add a pic when I get back home.
We've been enjoying the sun and ignoring the news, life is bliss
Sunny with cold winds, exactly how I like it. Though, will see how long it lasts
The intensity at work continues, just glad to get 1 day to truly relax. Awesome day party with two of my fave DJs playing b2b for 6 hours... and all done by 10pm! Just the ticket for an oldie like me
Sounds great! Who are the DJs?
Helena Hauff and L.F.T., two of Hamburg's finest bumping electro like it never went out of style o>
