Month: February 2001

right – the weekend in summary:
Friday night – beers at the bar, in the company of Paul F, Kearn, DA, DAGS, Paul S, Tam, Sacha …amongst others. Followed by more beer at Paul S’s house.
Saturday – lunch in East Sussex in the company of some friends I know through work – Morven, Tony, Emma, Pierre-Andre, Jennie, Kev McG, Marina, Damian and Julia – followed by a very pleasant stroll around Ashdown Forest.
Saturday night – yup, more beers down the bar, this time featuring Polly (celebrating her birthday), Sarah, Sacha, Ian, Tam, Paul S, Kearn, Paul F, Jo, Andy, Michelle, Arron, Lynne and Fi. Again went back to Paul S’s house, and drank beer and chewed the rag with Fi. Very pleasant.
Sunday – lunch with DAGS and Michelle at the Hare and Hounds at Stoughton, followed by a stroll along one of my favourite short circular walks – about an hour, and not more than a mile and a half, but with easy walking and lovely views in the sunshine across the Downs.
Sunday night – worked on the redesign that you are now admiring, and then went to the bar for beer with Aris and (briefly) Bora and Paul F.
Tonight’s plan – a long soak in the bath followed by meeting up with Bora.

bizarre – I actually have an Iris field just outside that Vaughan could come and dig, if he so desired.

oops! bit of a cock-up there – invited feedback on the new design, but managed to type my own mail address incorrectly – *d’oh!* – thanks to Matt for spotting that.

redesigned!
I fully intend to further tweak this design during the course of the next few months, but for now….whaddya think??

what a fantastic sunny day – put me in a good mood!

other news:
– won £10 on the lottery! wheee
– bought a new mobile phone
– found out that my new double glazing probably will not need planning consent after all! great! more money (and time) saved. have to wait for official written confirmation, but I have it verbally from the planning officer. good news indeed.

Parcel mystery solved – not what I had feared – instead it was this book sent to me by Richard – thank you very much. Respect due. You succeeded in putting a smile on my face, which is quite an achievement.

this weekend’s plans:
– to the bar tonight for beer
– lunch tomorrow with friends near Uckfield
– drinks tomorrow night with Sarah and some of her crowd from work to celebrate a birthday, probably in the bar for at least part of the time.
– Sunday – maybe actually doing some work on the redesign (yes, yes, yes, I know I said I’d have it done ages ago!!), followed by drinks in the bar. spotting a pattern yet?

whilst some people were out living it up, I had an oven-ready pizza and went to the bar for a pint. guh.

nor have I solved the mystery of the e-bouquet that was sent to me on Valentines Day – c’mon, fess up!
