If I'd Blogged on Friday night it would have read:
"F*cking windscreen wipers locked up again and the f*cking wind has just smashed the side gate!"
Beth's best friend Meg stayed over Friday night which increased the number of young'uns to six. Our house, if nothing else is full of chaos. I did feel guilty though when I asked Beth if they'd found something for breakfast and got the reply "yeah, we toasted the bread that hadn't gone moldy" - hmm Tescos time!
And so the weekend got off to a storming start. Luckily it got better!
But first to Chatham and the Post office. Sarah's girls are off to France next weekend with a local youth group and we were only told yesterday that they need an E111. Unfortunately when we get to the Post office we find that the E111 is no more replaced by another form that now takes 21 days to process. Oh well at least we got the Euro's while we were there!
Got my haircut again at the same place as mentioned in my previous blog. Got my ear hair singed again but didn't come out smelling like a tart's boudoir this time. Unfortunately he gelled my hair before I could stop him!
I bought a new winter coat, my old one is getting on a bit and hasn't been the same since last years works Christmas party! Only thing is the new one looks awfully like a parka (except it's not green) and I feel like I should have a Lambretta.
Sunday morning was spent going round garden centres and DIY shops looking for a new gate with no luck. It would appear our gate isn't a standard size....
Sunday afternoon was spent cooking - I made Beef stew and dumplings followed by Apple and Cinnamon crumble.
While I was doing that I was also fixing the gate which now opens better than it did before.
And I was also rebuilding my pc, installing a new hard drive (120Gb), new DVD burner, USB2 card and replacing the broken A drive as well as installing Windows XP.
Who says blokes can't multi-task!
