I really appreciated us all getting the seasonal colds/flu thing about 6 weeks ago.  I thought we'd all be clear of any illness when our holiday arrived.

While that's worked out pretty well, I didn't plan for the stress factor which has kind of taken over. I wouldn't mind so much if I was clear, but I know I come back to around 2 months of pre-booked work.

I suppose it'll pay for next year's vacation.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

Tomorrow I'll be closer to your timezone and may catch that wave in real time.

However, there are other waves for me to catch...

A dignitary, no less.

Well, I'm finally in Loosha - and up and about at 4am... That'll have to change as there is no sun at this time!!

Stay hydrated and don't forget the sunscreen.

Go to bed. Jet lag be damned. More beer.

I decided to go fishing instead. No luck as yet, but my daughter had a tiddler with a £6 kid's rod and reel.

We threw it back as it wouldn't've fed a cat (her words).

Stay hydrated and don't forget the sunscreen.

That's plenty of beer and a baseball cap in my language.

After driving son home from Wales, so he can receive his A Level exam results, I am about to drive back to Wales after buying a few bits and bobs we forgot.
So a quick visit to say hello  :)

But how were the results?

Sons results are as follows
A* Maths
A further maths / physics
B Chemistry  (apparently he messed up his practical again)

So Son is off to Birmingham University in September to study a 4/5 year course in
Chemical Engineering.

Well done, him.

I'd be happy if either of my children did that well.  In fact, i'd be happy if they uninstalled minecraft.

Like that's gonna happen..

Congratulations to goldshirt jr!  :)

My daughter is playing Minecraft right this minute. Every single day I have to negotiate how much time she will be playing. It's exhausting.
