    Clint & Sharon: You must be very proud.



    I'll be going to <pauses for breath> my dad's, girlfriend's niece's ballet recital tomorrow.

    The rest of the weekend is free for whatever...probably drinking.

    Sounds like fun Will probably pop into work Sat morning for a rest then as much time as poss doing similar to you Currently ripping out/ stripping the old kitchen, have to move door along, to put corridor along one side, to make it into a bathroom, & the kitchen/diner will then end up in the extension

    The trouble is some has been at the place before & it's bodge, bodge, bodge which ain't making life no easier......

    Just having a 10 minute break from stripping wallpaper off to see what's behind it

    Do have a car show booked for Sunday though at Yeovil so that's a bit of a break

    Re: bank holiday

    Going to Dublin for one day/night to see a new American singer called Ray Lamontagne. Saw him in Bristol in March and he just blew me away, totally unbelievable live, his voice is just amazing. He was on the Radio 2 show with Jonathan Ross a few Saturday's ago. His album is called Trouble, check it out !

    First time in Dublin so me and the missus will have a few Guinness' in Temple Bar area and have to pop into The Clarence Hotel (Bono owns it !), back to work Tues afternoon though probably very hungover !
