Bit of a random post, this one… we went round to Alex’s this evening, and got talking about song parodies (amongst other things). I was reminded of one I wrote ages ago (well, a few months), but didn’t get round to posting up here. Possibly for fear of being sued for libel, but hey ho!…

As I’ve already told you what I was going to do this weekend, just a quick update today! On Friday we drove down to Kent to stay with Philippa’s parents for the weekend. It was a fairly trouble-free journey! On Saturday, while Philippa was out, I cleaned the car. Phil’s Dad gave me a hand,…

This week, I have been mostly doing… not very much! On Tuesday evening we went round to Alex’s for dinner, who made us a Lasagne (thanks Alex – it was very nice!). Yesterday, we went over to Wivenhoe to have a drink with Alex and Phil P. It was good to see Phil as we…

So… what did we get up to this weekend? Well, I’ll tell you. On Friday night, we didn’t do very much. On Saturday we did some shopping in town, we bought a new CD Rack from Argos (which is OK, but I wasn’t very impressed with the construction of it!). In the evening, we went…

I’ve uploaded our holiday photos! They’re now in a Yahoo! Photos album. I think there are a few duplicates on there, but not many! Changing the subject complete, on a geeky note — I found this the other day which I think is a brilliant idea if you find out anyone is using your wireless…

The time has come to write about what we got up to on holiday. The slight problem with that is, (1) I can’t actually remember everything; (2) we went on a lot of walks which – while they were nice – aren’t necessarily good to write about. So, um, here we go. We set off…

I’m back from holiday! I would say, “We’re back” but Phil has a hen night to attend in London tonight, so unfortunately she can’t return until tomorrow. The holiday was great – very relaxing! I won’t go into details here, but I shall post a full report with reviews and photos at a later date…

Last night, Philippa and I went to La Tasca on North Hill to celebrate my birthday 🙂 La Tasca is a Spanish Tapas bar / restaurant. I’d never been to a Tapas restaurant before, but I really enjoyed it! I’d definitely recommend it to anyone if they want a place to eat out in Colchester…

… you shouldn’t be. Let me elaborate. Some of you may know, I am not a huge fan of our good friend across the pond (pond = Atlantic Ocean, if you’re not up to speed with British slang…) I disagree on a pretty fundamental level with some of the things he has said and done,…

It’s fairly unusual that I make a “The Weekend” post on a Tuesday – normally it’s Mondays! But still. The weekend is now far enough away that I can’t actually remember what I did in much detail. On Saturday, Rich came round for dinner in the evening, and then stayed the night and came to…
