Don't worry rain, this was just for the weekend, I'm planning on getting a much earlier night tonight. And the batteries both going flat quickly so we had to finish work early was nice.
But back to my weekend.
A very long Friday found me eating lasana at the House of Fun. What made the Friday that bit longer was the fact that we then stayed up far too late chatting. Not so good with our competition the very next morning. Oh well!!! ;o)
The trip down to Exeter went very well..... for all those who weren't in the Car of Death.... apparently there were only two... moments... on the way there. One involving a HGV and the other a car stopped at a red light. And no, it wasn't my car!!! :p
The competition went well, both our experienced and novice teams came second and there were several individual golds. I had one of them, thrashing my competitor from Exeter. Is it wrong to use a bit of gamesmanship to put a competitor off their game?? I'm not talking like poking them with a stick but more just not letting them settle into a routine. To put them off just enough that they don't do as well as they might. Is that wrong or just part of sports??
And does it make any difference if I'm then thanked by his team-mates as he'd been becoming a bit too cocky and needed taking down a peg or two. See, I did good by handing him a crushing defeat.
I shan't mention the car keys being locked in the car, as it wasn't my fault. Needless to say we got them out. We do have a slight history with the breaking in of vehicles. Well, minibuses really.... but that really is another story!!!
Sunday was the lie-in day. Caught up with a few friends at church. Even though I got there early, it seems that someone has stolen my pew. Leave the place for a couple of months.......
After taking Ceinwen and Jack-Jack shopping we then headed off to watch James Bond in Casino Royale which we enjoyed. But I did think that the bit where James 'retires' to live with his girlie, who we all knew was going to die like in On Her Majesty's Secret Service, was a bit annoying. And they could have played the Mr White out like a Blofeld-esq charactor.
Of course, doing this made it that coming home bit well, slightly delayed and well, you can see what happened then.
I'm now going to finsih off my tv prog and then go to bed. I think I deserve it.
