One of my boxes of wine from Waitrose was incorrect. What was supposed to be pinot grigio, is sparkling rose. Not really my cup of tea really, or wine for that matter.
My people call me the dude. I share my teachings in the passages below... (along with many typos, grammatical errors and lazy writing)

Nice surprise
I received a letter from HMRC yesterday and it said i'd overpaid £460 in tax last year. Whohoo! It was a little convoluted to arrange to get it back but that's done now.

Can you spot it?
I took the dog out early last week as it was going to be stupidly hot later in the day. I spotted this. Arwen didn't even notice.
5 course tasting menu
Last Thursday we went to Mereworth Vineyard for a meal and some paired win. What a beautiful day.
Chiddingstone touch rugby
I played for the Badgers over in Chiddingston on Saturday. We got hammered in the first two games then lost again in the final game of the group. It was much closer though and good fun. I got the train to Penshurst then cycled to the ground with a friend. Then cycled all the way back to Leigh to say hello to some friends playing cricket, then cycled home to quickly get showered and changed as we were due at a friend's 40th back in Leigh!
The kids got a couple of games too.
My leg's not great. I got a nasty friction burn when sliding on the hard ground.
Foot long, who wants a foot long?
I asked the kids if they wanted normal size hot dogs or if they wanted the larger ones. They opted for the larger ones...
New dice stand
I bought another dice stand from etsy the other week, i'd need another couple to display the lot though.
Here's my current nerd shelves.

Riding back from the cricket on Sunday
Flo's decided to join in with the cricket every other week so this week we all cycled to Leigh and back from Tonbridge. It's a nice ride.
Secret Fathers Day
After cricket in the morning April took me and the kids into London for a secret fathers day. First we went to the sister restaurant of Fallow, Fowl. Fallow was where we went for my birthday last year. I follow the two chefs on youtube. After that we went back to London Bridge and onto Sixes. An indoor cricket batting simulator / bar. I came 3rd out of the 4 of us. Very disappointed...
Fowl. Lots of chicken wings.
