Long weekend coming up!

Got a few free minutes, and thought I'd take the opportunity to put up a quick update on the week so far. Work has been typically busy, but a little less frantic than the last few weeks when we had people away. It was Andrew Ballem's (Australian friend who is currently living here) birthday yesterday - and a group of had dinner and a few drinks at one of his local pubs in Belsize Park (very nice area). There was Aaron, Sam, Cleo (Sam's g/friend), Pixie, Adrian (another Ozzie friend living here), Tim and Lisa (more Australian friends who are living here for a short time), and another Adrian (Andrew's friend) there - so it was quite fun. The food was really nice, and the surrounds very comfortable, so it made for a good time.

I was hoping to have tomorrow and Friday off, but now I think I have to come into the office tomorrow for a little while, but I am going to do my best to limit it to just a few hours. With so much DIY work to be done, I really need to spend some quality time in the flat during the day when I am free to make as much noise as I like and get on with it. Fingers crossed I make some progress over the next few days. Pixie is away this weekend on holiday with a friend, so it will give me a little extra time to get on with it (as I'll have nothing else to do), although there is talk of some picnic in park action on Monday afternoon (Monday is a bank holiday, for what I am unsure - but we don't question these things!). So that should be nice. It's always fun to see everyone, especially little Madeleine, who is just the cutest!

Well that's all about I have time for at the moment, as it's now about 8pm and I really want to get home. I will try my best to keep this updated (weekly maybe..? We'll see).

Hope everyone is well, love to all

Dan

First post

This is the first one in yet another attempt to be a blogger. Can't help but feel I am too lazy for this, but here we go (again).
