Well - here are latest thoughts - as always observations and comments welcome!

Weds night - played badminton - i play doubles usually - and we have a regular 4 - last night we had a stand in who I played with - he was pretty good - but it took us a little while to get to know each other's game - we lost the first 3 - then recovered - it turned out that he was pretty good! I enjoy those games enormously! we ended up 4-3 down - not a bad recovery! Anyone else play badminton? I suffered a broken string at about game 2 - so one I persuaded that string back into a place in my racket was all the more pleased that we were able to get that result! I've got the measure of P - my nemesis - he has a cr@p backhand but but is wicked on the forehand and smash - but difficult thing is he's left handed - which makes it essential to play with a thinking mind! Which can be hard over 2 hours!!!

Had H overnight last-night - he's tired from his term now - needs a holiday - I suggested climbing - " awwwww......!" We ended up having tea then tiling and doing jobs - just as good in terms of dad-son time as far as i'm concerned....

W phoned a couple of times last night - missed both calls - but I think she goes to a class on thursdays...to a place with poor reception too...we tried calling back - and left a message - sorry I(H) missed your call- I was up a ladder tiling! H is now conflicted - wants to be a tiler OR an

Traffic was dreadful this morning - everyone heading into city to shop! Not helped by roadworks...

Got H to school all fine - with buckets of treats for his class pals...for his birthday - his birthday is on Christmas Day so he doesn't get the chance of having this celebrated in school within term - he was v v excited to be able to take this stuff in on the last day of term!

And so to me - went for drinks with with folks from work at the close of play this afternoon...and then bailed out at about 7...train home! busy day tomorrow...and then H from 6 - while W - and this is the speculative bit - introduces new OM to BIL and sil...

The thought of which makes me sick...

but - hey - nothing i can do - and H and I will have a ball tomorrow eve and all day Sunday.

So...there we go - KBO - GFI
