• How was your weekend?

Saturday morning: work. Large print job, preparing for Sunday work.

Sunday: Work, made 32 large signs for a delivery this morning.

• What's the weather like in the UK?

Dunno, but here in Holland it's all bright skies, excellent for doggy walk

Very good thanks, wired up the lighting ring main for the upstairs loft conversion, fitted shower tray / enclosure in 3rd bathroom, painted the landing and stairwell, obligatory trip to B&Q / plumbers merchant, plumbed in cold feed from loft header tank to bathrooms, entertained friends for dinner Saturday evening, better half cooked excellent meal, dranks lots of Leffe and red wine, relaxed in our hot tub.

In loft, B&Q / plumbers merchant - mostly dry with flourescent lighting.
In hot tub, overcast but dry.

• What are you having for diner tonight?

Left overs of excellent meal cooked by better half.

Ooh, something I can finally comment on.  

Weekend:  Sooo long.  It all started on Thursday with our sales conference when I got somewhat over refreshed.  
Friday day I went to catch up with an old friend.  
Friday night I had a 40th party to go to.  
Saturday I was working at the pub.  
Sunday I was studying.  The Human Skeletal System is truly fascinating.....Honest.  
Weather:  No idea as I work in an office that has no windows.  It was quite nice on the way to work this morning though.
Dinner:  None for me tonight as I have to go and learn even more about bones.   I believe we're doing legs tonight.

1.  Weekend great thanks.  Watched racing of the 4-legged hay-burner variety; continued the never-ending process of clearing out the barn; watched rally Sunday.  Good old Seb, can even win a championship from his home in Switzerland!  Great first rally win for Mikko Hervenen - great to see some new blood in this championship, although it could do with some more top manufacturers.  Mr Termite comes in from time to time to proudly show off the water tower he's been building for his model railway (crank - but it keeps him out of my hair). Two or three bottles of fizz from local supermarket.
2.  Haven't got a clue.
3. Pork chops, baked spuds and ratatouille.  Bottle of cheep fizz from local supermarket to wash it down.

Friday night was spent in an ever-so trendy bar in Brighton for the launch party of a friend's new business. Some jolly nice peopel there and in the charity raffle I won a years subscription to a gym. Not just an ordinary gym you understand, but a gym that specialises in combat. I've got my first lesson in Total Fighting on thursday and they've promised to kick the ever-loving sh*t out of me. Saturday was spent out with the dog in the countryside chasing peasants, sorry pheasants. Having worked up a goodly thist, this was followed by giddiness in the local pub with Chris Z. I also waved away the golden opportunity of an invitation to a halloween party at the local gay bar. Sunday was spent tidying up the garden and cutting the lawn hopefully for the last time this year. I can see the mower coming out on Xmas day at this rate. This morning I've been at the bloody House of bleeding Commons listening to a speech by the Minister for Pension and Welfare Reform; dull as ditchwater sounds exiting in comparision. Frankly, I'd rather have my piles lanced whilst watching Eastenders.

Weather: dry and warm - am I alone in still not putting the central heating on yet?

Tonights meal: Sausages.

Not at all Andy.  Mine is still off and I don't see it being turned on for some time yet.

Hmm, the weekend? CellPhone died on Saturday, so made meeting friends in the pub hard, but I made it. Spent a few hours in the company of a few lovely ladies no complaints there...  Sunday was a slow boring day.

Whether is ok-ish, nice and dry.

Dinner tonight is plain hot dogs, just spent time baking, so not in the mood for much.
