Bob Veitch`s last couple of weekends - a summary...

Well it has all be happening - and in no real order ...
12th March drove to Hinckley with dad- loads of work from Saturday to Tuesday morning - grass cutting, cleaning, yellow flowering plant hedge vicious trim ->amoeba of waste into car, 3 trips to Barwell dump, carpets installed on Monday 15th - very pleased as look better than expected. Spent a long time trying to get wall units aligned - nightmare. Wednesday 17th replacement gas hob should ahve been fitted. Neighbouring house towards Tesco sold and builders started, 2 estate agents visited, chinese carry outs and Witherspoons, car sharing started on Wednesday 17th March - excellent. Archie, dad and I`s birthdays mainly celebrated on Sunday 21st March - all visited Susan and Allan`s - Ping cooked a lovely Thai Mango chicken dish followed by 2 birthday cakes. I received 2 shirts, a bread making book and the latest Sade cd - which is dating me somewhat but I like it a lot. For dad Ping and I got him a planer.
On the Sunday evening after birthdays, Ping and I did a lot of estate agent research and decided on the one who shall get the job to sell my Hinckley house - Profiles and a guide price. Saturday 13th I got wing out on hill behind Craig Ross`s house but failed to fly as mentally in the wrong place as well as getting dark and wind along the hill! - I hear though that earlier in the day Gordon, Tina and Cliff had a successful flight from the same hill to near the M9 at Stirling.
Monday 22nd and Tuesday 23rd Ping and I jogged for the first time in ages - I had my usual swimming and badminton and on the Tuesday had to collect car from the P+R as locked in so cycled there - triathlons to come?....
Work currently more interesting than normal as learning how to use the banking system to setup payments to forign vendors. Ping is naturally in deep study mode as exams in less than a month now. Richard currently away on skiing holiday and going from the texts received having an absolutely fab time. Probably missed lots of things but must sleep now .....
