Bank Holiday

Well here we are at the August Bank Holiday. We have already taken the kids to Chessington theme park. And are now set for a peaceful weekend. Yeah right!.
Yesterday I spent all afternoon re-installing all the drivers and software on the "better" computer. (The one that doesn't take half a day to load each page), only to be told that one of the kids is having a friend sleepover. I admit my reply was "Not again". "She had a friend staying Tuesday night, so who's staying tonight?" Same friend was the reply. At this rate I think we need a bigger house.
So back to my peaceful weekend. Today (Saturday) I have to do some work on the car. Change the front brake pads, repair the electric window and start sorting out the rust spots. So no peace today. Tomorrow (Sunday) I am going to continue with repairs (i.e. whatever I didn't get done today) until the afternoon when we are going to a friends BBQ in Whiteparish. Then on Monday, if the weather is good, I will be helping the Husband of one of my darling wifes friends with some building work (Namely kennels) at their bungalow. So where is the peaceful weekend.
Oh well, rugby season starts again next week so this was my last weekend of peace.What with going to see Harlequins (both my son and myself are season ticket holders). Refereeing Rugby matches (I'm a qualified referee) and coaching on a Sunday morning at Eastleigh (Now there I am involved far too much really). So I hope everybody else gets a rest.
