Dentist, dining, Departed and other stuff

Ooh it's been a while, i'll try not to drone on.

Wednesday, Steven never showed up for his hair cutting, so i did nowt, read mags, ya di ya!

Thursday, something very similar, kept my head down at work and was all sweetness and light as i needed to take 1/2 day Friday.
AP and i did jack shit at night, resisted the temptation to bring new pine drawers home so we wouldn't have to put them up. Early to bed, early to rise.

Friday, the start of the weekend, yippee! bring it on, where's my glittery top and spangley shoes?
Left work at lunchtime and shlecked over the moors to Wilmslow, Chris patched up my back tooth (putting any more serious work on the back burner for when i am able to have x-rays), free scale and polish, then he signed off for the day, so we toddled off to a nice country pub and had a pie, a pint and a good old chin wag! Chris rocks!

Home for 4.15pm, got a wriggle on, let cats in and out, bathed, made myself looked 1/2 decent........collected Andy, then Ruth and Mark, we went to the Oracle for gourmet burger and chips, they all had pints to wash theirs down, i opted for a soft beverage, being designated driver etc!
Didn't stay too late, it wasn't overly busy, so we settled our bill and were back in Clecksville for 7.15pm, quick pint and a game of pool in the Commical, left R&M meeting some other party people, we shuffled off home to don our p.j's, turn the fire up and watch DVD's while eating cake and ice-cream.
Bed at 11pm, leaving Andy switching everything off!

Lovely Saturday.....early morning snuggles, coffee and tea in bed, we watched princess Nicky, then i put the washer on, changed into swimming cossie, dropped Andy home to get ready for rugby, then hit the pool.
Was a tad worried when i arrived, as i was earlier than usual, there were only a few randoms in, a bloke who looked like he'd had open heart surgery, three folk doing doggy paddle with blue floats attached to their backs, one girl having a swimming lesson and some old people, was sure i'd gatecrashed some pals club, but just got in and swam up and down hoping noone would ask me to leave. I later checked, it was only length swimming so i was in the clear.

Out, dried, home, bathed and grilled breakfast all before midday! look at me go!
Did a couple more wash loads, bedding etc, was ligged on the sofa, reading the bible (Take a break), when Marlene came visiting with vanilla slices......hooray!
We chatted an hour, then i blitzed all clothes drawers/dressing table drawers in the bedroom and bagged up charity stuff and things for the rubbish! I've thrown more rubbish out in the last 2 months than i have in the last 17yrs and 3 house moves.

I love my Saturdays, but they're over too quick, i could have done with another couple of hours slobbing but it was time to fetch Andy from the rugby. Called in G&D's, have noticed she talks to my stomach now and not my face, we wolfed a fish butty down each, then to the showcase for pop, revels, wine gums and The Departed............ace! reight do!
Home late late, bed for me and my magazine, sky sports and switching off all things electrical for AP!


Sunday, WTF? alarm woke us up in the middle of the night (9am), it was a flurry of morning coffees, showers, shaving (Andy not me), hair straightening (me not Andy), best togs and we were the last to the church, sat in the back pew, behind 19 other members of our family, for Marlo and Jim's ruby wedding celebration.
After 1hr, and me only knowing one hymn, the novelty had worn off, i was tired and hungry, stifling giggles at boyf doing Pavarotti impressions, praise the lord (literally) it was all over and we headed for the Priestley rooms for a finger buffet, poor Andy got interrogated by 15 Aunts, i sat and nodded at all the folk congratulating us, who i hadn't seen since the 90's.
Was bombarded by the Richardson's with news of their daughters whereabouts and well being! Struth get me out of here. Chistopher Garforth was, oh don't get me started.
Most of us ended up in Drub club (Andy drinking Stella and playing snooker with my brothers, would that be why he's blobbed work today?).
My mad Grandma was there, wearing all Auntie Edith's best clothes, she'd actually laid out on the bed for herself, but Grandma was up 1st and thought they'd suit her, she also had Tena ladies in her shoes thinking they were insoles (how is she supposed to know?).

the bar shut, all Aunties, Uncles went off home, me, my siblings and partners went to Gomersal Cricket club for one, i then dropped Andy at the Rose and Crown to meet Deano, Blacky and Waitey ( i know he's allowed a life etc, but what he cannot do is get mullered with the singletons, shirk work on a Monday morning and lose a days pay when we are with child, as we'll be living on a shoe string as it is! ) lecture over!

I went back to bed for an hour, got up after tea, p.j's, pie and chips, fire on full, laked wi cats and to bed at midnight to read trashy novel, all quite nice.

Monday fooking morning, i hate them, had to get up early to take Marlene and Jim to the the Station they're off to the Isle of Man for a trip down memory lane, bless em!

So that's my news, all lager free, party free, but full and varied all the same, i hope you'll agree! ooh that rhymed!
Off to fetch David some Kenyan shillings now, only 2 days of him this week, as Weds i'm having my scan then Thursday he's going fishing.......whoppee do!
