So Long Weekend

Ahh, the usual pitfalls of having to go to work today but it does provide me with an opportunity to go into town at Lunch and sort out some bits and pieces that needed doing at the post office, and pay some money in for Phil.

Other than that, there isn't much happening at all, it's been a very quiet day all round but I do have to organise and book a trip for some people in the office who are going to Scotland for a meeting. It's amazing how easy such things are with the advent of the internet - 30 mins and I was done, though I was vetoed on booking the Hilton hotel for their overnight stay... strange, I thought it looked nice and was reasonably priced (about £140 a night per room). In the end they opted for a travelodge, which at £75 a night per room is a bit more reasonable, though it looks more like a YMCA than anything else.

Back home and we have tea and I then set about watching the first half of Deep Impact. It's a good film, but with the intervention of the news at 10 pm I don't quite make it to the second half. Not to worry though, Phil has been super generous and has said he'll order the DVD for me so I can watch the entirety of the film at my own leisure. Thank you Phil! :)

I also have a phone call with my Mum who tells me that my devious plan of obtaining something from my sister whilst she visits a hotel near us this weekend has gone to pot, she's not coming this way after her party was cancelled. So it looks like I'll be going to Wales tomorrow to pick up said item. I might well make a long weekend of it too.
