    The weather improving means I, as a pasty ginger, have to start deploying my vampire-grade sun protection. Seems to be working fine so far.

    I had to be at my brother's most of Monday to accept a shower tray ("sorry mate, we aren't insured to go inside", cue dragging the sodding thing into the garage), be there when the kids got in and wait for my SIL to get home at 6ish. So I took a boom, the craptop (need a new or refurbished laptop) and managed to box off Adolescence as they've got Netflix (managed to watch it in the wrong order as I don't have Netflix but I don't think it mattered much).

    Managed to avoid the bulk of the Grand National madness that dominates this weekend up here, although more from luck, not judgement.

    Went to a friend's for his and his daughter's birthdays (she was born on his birthday, so he hasn't had his own birthday in 21 years now) and it was nice to catch up with people I've not seen in a while (one woman I haven't talked to in 25 years). There was some drunken shenanigans and I suspect a few frosty receptions from spouses today (my best friend's wife was threatening to throw up in my car all the way home but saved it for when they got back - he didn't sound best pleased when he informed me of this as 2:45 this morning).

    Downsides: managed to injure my right hand twice this week because I am very clumsy. Nothing serious but a bit sore.

    So a good week all told.
