Well a quite but enjoyable weekend. As the weather was good down my neck of the woods did a bit of gardening. Dug out a corner of the garden to plant a couple of trees and then laid a brick edging around it.

Other than that and a bit of shopping on sat was roped into a bit of a spring clean by SWMBO on the Sunday

So overall a nice relaxing weekend

This weekend starts on Friday morning for me when I go to the airport to pick up a friend who's staying with me until Sunday.
He's coming over specifically for the purpose of taking photographs of the north Antrim coastal area but we'll probably be doing some photography on Friday evening and night.
Saturday starts at about 3am when we get up in preparation for travelling up to the Giants Causeway to hopefully capture the sunrise, after that we'll be travelling down the Causeway coastal route stopping off along the way at certain designated spots as well as anywhere that just takes our fancy.
From there we'll be heading down to Strangford Lough, crossing on the ferry and making our way up to Lough Neagh to hopefully capture the sun setting across the water.
After that, we'll either make our way back to my place or we'll take a circuitous route, depending on the weather.
Sunday could also be an early one as we might be getting up to capture the sun rising from Knockagh Monument.
So, all in all, a busy weekend hopefully filled with much photographicing.

Mark

Off to Brooklands, for the classic Italian car show, on Saturday then Chartwell house on Sunday. Then i will be ensuring SWMBO is stocked up on tea and chocolate as she has her MA assignment due in next Friday.
:D

Hmmmm.... long weekend with the bank holiday and all. Car is having a service on Friday so might pack it up and head for the coast with the missus if the weather is nice. Maybe take the camera. Call in at the parents on the way home.

Or

Stay at home playing Xbox and checking X404 on a regular basis

I just spent yesterday fixing my car, due to a leaky petrol tank. Hopefully fixed it now, and at the weekend might be going to look at some new ones. Fiesta mk6 hopefully.

I intend to get very, very drunk, have a BBQ & burn stuff in the fire pit.

Then after a 24 hour hangover I'll probably sort out my office.

London on Saturday to "Do the Eye" and possibly have a wander around the HoP and Westminster? Sunday we're hopefully going to spend with Rosie TR7, the body filling in the back is nearly finished and then it's paint removal FTW!! We're also going to (again hopefully) get the DP and Otos for the new fish tank. Monday dunno yet, might be back with Rosie, might be doing house stuff, fishy water changes etc.

I'm joining my folks for a bit of sailing, out of Oban. Hopefully my girlfriend will come too, but she's not overly fond of water, so might take some convincing.

Unless things change, a friend and I are off to the Barbican to see the Le Corbousier exhibition. Friend’s health being what it is, he could call it off on Saturday. We’ll have to see.
