Weekend Roundup – 27/06/10

Saturday – Mum and Dad went home, and then went out on a fabulous 72 and a bit mile bike ride (in a story further down). Home and had a BBQ and a few Budweisers before going to bed pretty early before flicking around iTunes on my new iPhone, finding, buying and listening to the new Orbital EP (iTunes). Awesome choonage.
Sunburn kept waking me up though, so a bit of a restless night’s sleep.

Sunday – Up early(ish) and off to mother-in-law’s for an hour or so. They have a problem peacock that is tearing up the neighbourhood. I did offer to borrow a shotgun and despatch it (and then pluck and eat it) but she reckoned it would be a bit tough and all the locals like it anyway. Shame. Peacock curry anyone?
Back via Harrogate, trying to get a case to protect the shiny new iPhone I have, but nowhere seems to be open and those that are open don’t have any iPhone 4 cases yet. Aargh. I know it’ll get scratched if I carry on like this.
Home via Tesco (who also didn’t have any cases either) and we had another BBQ and a welcome surprise visit from sister-in-law, hubby and nephew so we sat and watched the England game. Actually, it was a day of slobbing out, drinking beer and BBQ as it was way too hot to do anything else. I reckon another day of riding my bike would have killed me!
Thank god for the return of Top Gear.
