  • How to feel old.

    This weekend was manic.

    Friday - left work at 5 on the dot to get home and get round to the pub for fireworks. Meet brother-in-law, his girlfriend and their 4 week old daughter (who slept through the fireworks). Have some drinks and chat, walk home.

    Wake up and go and get hair cut for 9am.

    Get home and get dressed to drive down to Slough for friends daughter's 1st birthday party. Enjoy Indian food and pop, play on bouncy castle with Bean for a bit and cuddle him when injured.

    Drive home and meet in-laws.

    Get changed again and prepare to go out for b-i-l's surprise 30th party. Get into minibus with wife and mother-in-law, several glowing balloons, cake, fizz and glasses. Leave father-in-law in charge of Bean.

    Arrive at b-i-l's and drop off m-i-l. See worried face on b-i-l. Get back into minibus having lit a Chinese lantern (no, me neither) and had a glass of fizz.

    Drive to secret venue and watch b-i-l try and figure it out.

    Have fantastic night and enjoy really good food and great venue.

    Have some alcohols.

    Get back into minibus (being driven by someone else I hasten to add) with b-i-l and girlfriend and drive them home.

    Light more Chinese lanterns.

    Leave b-i-l's and take m-i-l back with us.

    Stay up chatting/debriefing with in-laws until early hours.

    Get up early and rake leaves from garden.

    Take leaves to allotment and do a little work whilst LadyWayne goes out to collect food for "family party".

    Have food and go for walk.

    Stop off at the pub on the way home and have a pint.

    Go home - finish off buffet and feel fat/knackered.

    Fantastic weekend, and during the "surprise party" I was invited to a joint stag do in Vegas next year.

    Wouldn't mind but - I was knackered after this weekend, and LadyWayne said I could be like the George Clooney of the group as I'm the oldest, and have the most grey hair.

    Pft!
