[b]Coming up, only a few days to go.[/b] :bounce:

I have it all to do. Its my first wedding anniversary so we're off to London on Saturday for a WestEnd show. Sunday will be for the football and Monday will be spent chilling, drinking and watching some historics razzing round Oulton at the Gold Cup meeting. :thumbup:

Looks like the weather could be OK too.

Enjoy, everybody! [small][b][i]BrInG iT oN[/small][/b][/i] :spin:

Who's doing what?

Its also my 1st wedding anniversary , and i'm desperately running around trying to find somewhere nice to go for the weekend (Porsche festival @ brands might just be met with the sort of wrath I thought had died out in biblical times)

That's bonkers, it is my 1st anniversary on Monday 29th!

Also struggling as the 1st one is paper and the idea of presenting her with a copy of the current bun, doesn't sit well!!

Going to paint the external stairway leading up to my front door or if its raining finish the tiling and grouting in the kitchen.

In between that loads of drinking and getting rid of the rest of the ex's stuff

Friday night - off drinking with the boys
Saturday - Hangover followed by BBQ
Sunday - Hangover followed by 'popping out for a pint of milk'
Monday - Taking the g/f to the airport to see her brother off as he's moving back home to Zambia. Soggy shoulder by the end of the day methinks.

Boys, this anniversary lark is easy. Knowing that Oulton was on Sunday and Monday, I craftily purchased the theatre tickets for Saturday as I knew she really wanted to go.

These were handed over to her with a cheeky grin and the proviso that I could go to Oulton on the Monday.

Worked a treat.

Friday: Getting pissed and making a fool of myself (again )
Saturday: Working (3mins walk from the front door and something I can do in my sleep...luckily). 10 mins later going down the pub for the rest of the day having earnt 3 days pay.
Sunday: Sleeping mainly but also being on call whilst in the pub (I love my job)
Monday: Possibily going down the pub, if my liver hasn't packed up by then.

After 1 gumball, 3 nurburgring trips, and about 6 trackdays since we have been married, she probably(?!) wants a weekend without cars

That sounds like a pretty sharp business plan! I'd certainly invest

Good weekend for me coming up after a week in Finland, hoof it upto Fife in Scotland in the Porker (not used it for 2 weeks) for 2-3hrs of Rage Buggies and then a pub crawl round Edinburgh, pop in and say hello to Mum and Dad and then back south to the Midlands on Monday to fly out to Sweden for the rest of the week.

I'll be knackered but it'll be fun
