Sometimes I think I’m a little bit quirky; I spent the morning getting the stuff to make cakes, cookies and ‘american style’ brownies; and then spend the rest of the morning making them. Carrot cake, Choclate cookies and Brownies were made.
Of course, after lunch I got changed and went out and serviced my Morris Minor. I spent about 3 hours grovelling under the car, I slathered some old grease on some areas where the underseal’s wandered off – realised that I’m really very glad I’ve got new tyres being fitted tomorrow. One of the rear ones was more worn than I’d realised. Quite a lot more worn.
I am quite tired now though, and I realised that despite forking out 40 quid on service parts I failed to get a set of points. Yes. Dozy mare that I am. Or a new fan belt. And, in award winning news, I found out what was making the irritating tinging noise. The bearing on the alternator’s gone – I think – it’s moving front-to-back, which is worrying. Still, it’s still working at the moment.
Anyway, I then spent the evening at the Cinema watching Superman Returns, which, contrary to expectations was fantastic. I really enjoyed watching it – and it really felt like a proper Superman film.
This has been a really nice weekend – yesterday after work we headed out to TGI Fridays, which made for a really chilled out evening – then over to Nikki and Kates for an evening of nattering. All in all it’s been a nice, relaxed weekend…
