mottaloo Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Went to see Foil Arms & Hog at Warwick arts centre on Friday night. Front row seats and i got dragged up on stage to help in a sketch ! Loved it, playing kiss chase with 3 grown men ! Sat night went to a micro pub in streetly, full of real ales and gins etc.....then next door for a curry in a rammed restaurant. Today, chilling and "looking forward" to work tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted March 20, 2020 Author Share Posted March 20, 2020 So... What we all doing this weekend? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekka Posted March 20, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted March 20, 2020 (edited) Seeing as I'll be working from home for gawd knows how long, I've got a new desk and office chair turning up tomorrow. Work are looking into providing those in need with chairs etc but I'd rather not wait and it gave me an excuse to get a big gaming-style desk . As for Sunday, apart from moan at the lack of a roast dinner, I'll be attempting to sort out a few things to send on to my team. Wish me luck - I don't look forward to going to the big supermarkets so I might be reliant on the likes of the Co-Op and then the Post Office on Monday Edited March 20, 2020 by trekka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelVilla Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 I have downloaded a few games. Call of Duty for example, havent played that type of games for many years. Instead of watching hockey this morning I read a book. All good so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted March 21, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted March 21, 2020 Might as well close this thread down for the foreseeable. My Saturday has been more or less a carbon copy of my Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted March 21, 2020 Author Share Posted March 21, 2020 I've just relaxed today. Watched some TV (Morse and Midsomer on Britbox) and plenty of YouTube videos. Needed it after an emotionally draining week at work. Same again tomorrow although I will be meeting my Dad for a handover of goods at a remote location! Then I will log on and do a bit of work on Sunday night and try and get a head start for the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I moved my daughter into a flat it hurt me a bit physically and that will continue today getting a washing machine into a first floor flat. That all done I am holing up indoors for the foreseeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il_serpente Posted March 22, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted March 22, 2020 Went out as a family and weeded the raised beds and turned over the soil to prepare for this year’s vegetable garden. Seeds have been ordered on line. It was sunny and warm when we started and right as we finished it started to rain and suddenly a violent hailstorm came out of nowhere.

COVID-19 aside, don’t forget your hazmat suit. You’ll need it, especially if you’re going anywhere near Hanley! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted June 19, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 19, 2021 Oh hello old thread, it’s been a while… I’m actually going to a couple of pubs today with some mates. One of my mates I haven’t seen in person since before the first lockdown, despite him being only 4 or 5 miles away. Just local village pubs, but very much looking forward to it, despite the sunshine deciding to retire for the time being. One of the pubs has had a refurbishment and layout change this year, so it will be our first proper look at that. I expect to be quite drunk after 2, maybe 3 sips of alcohol. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 This week, I’ve been to Dover, Great Yarmouth and Carlisle. This weekend, I will be going no further than the end of the garden. I am going to relocate the bird feeders, I may or may not have some beers and a small controlled middle class fire this evening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Salad Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 This morning am going to a family breakfast. This evening am attending a cookout. Sunday morning I am going to try this new doughnut truck. And Sunday night going to a crab festival. Yes, I need to drop a few pounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot tip: get a lift in a mate’s car, and put your wallet in a front pocket. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Oh yeah, and on Sunday I will be watching Italy vs Wales which I will not fret about but will simply enjoy, even if we lose by 6, because our striker scored 7 goals in 50 appearances for Yeovil Town, whilst our right back scored 0 goals in 45 games for Yeovil Town, but popped in the second goal against Turkey. And I will get to open the parcel that just arrived that looks suspiciously like it could be beer or wine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted June 19, 2021 Moderator Share Posted June 19, 2021 Went to bed after tea last night and woke up between 11 and midnight (as kinda planned). Made a coffee to complete the wake up process. Logged on to my tablet, all good. FInished my coffee and off out to work. There was no signal outside the house (not unusual) so I thought nothing of it until I got up the road, still no signal but I think maybe the mast is down, so I drive on to Formby, still no signal. I spend the next half an hour back in the house trying to fix the issue to no avail. Oh well thats my first night back on the cabs buggered but that coffee now means I'll be awake until 4am at least... Go into the office this morning to rectify the problem only to discover I have about 2 hours worth of work from the Police and Test and Trace This weekend is doomed already. Time to attempt to strip down a wooden chest we have and make it match the rest of the furniture and stick to some more useful wheels on the bottom of it.

Seat68 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Fed Penguins at Dudley Zoo. It was excellent. My wife bought the experience for me as a vift and it was every bit as good as I hoped it would be. I showered after I got home but the fish smell lingers. Tomorrow I assemble my grandsons bike for his birthday next weekend. Outside of that, sit on my arse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Took my golf green card today. Was a laugh and a half. But gnats and golf don't match. Impossible to concentrate with those **** in your nose, ears, eyes, hands etc. And they were biting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 Should have been in London this weekend for my birthday weekend which included 4 tickets for the England v Scotland game. Those plans changed with covid and the reduced capacity at Wembley meaning we didn't get through the ballot for existing ticket holders. Having watched the game though - what a stroke of luck! I'll catch up with my pals another time when the world is back to normal. Instead I went to see my folks for a few hours. Always nice to be out in the sticks. Sheep were up in the top field making a racket, which was nice! Always hate coming back into Brum... getting off at J7 and going through Great Barr. The competency of driving immediately drops by a third. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
