We will be in touch
Well , my host is not pleasant to his parents.
So a little tricky here .
He actually went to bed for a power nap before a the cheese course!
Currently working on extit strategy.
Oxtail stew was grand though,..
On our last of 10 nights in Tenerife. Had to work on one of the days as it couldn't be avoided, but spent the rest of the time with the kids and missus , swimming, playing mini golf and 5 aside football . Topped off tonight with a plate of lobster , langoustines and Iberian sirloin.
Gonna miss that sun !
Merry Christmas
Well nobody has parked in front of my dropped curb,and I don’t have any topsoil to shift, so things could be worse.
i always read these threads and wonder how the hell folk manage to get out on their bikes on xmas day, especially with kids... well this year i did too! only for an hour or so, using the dog as an excuse - but it made my day!!
Any Christmas misery has now been firmly put in perspective, now I've had to return to work :?.
two highlights of xmas for me. Family meal in restaurant my mum looks at crankbrat and says he's really tired you should get home, to which i say i can't leave as they haven't brought the bill yet and i need to pay our share my mum looks to my Brother and says "can you sort the bill out" me and brother assumes she means get the bill now and work out the split so he says "of course" , my mum turns to me and says "its ok you can go he is paying." Genuinely funny as my brother has stayed for a week and eaten and drunk and made close to zero contribution.
The second highlight was seeing the meteor/comet over leeds on New Years Eve genuinely strange and otherworldly.
