20 days left at work

 Only 20 days left of work!



We finished this too

Or at least April did. She probably dod 90%. 




Coq au picpoul

 I made this yesterday, not bad.


New dice

 This arrived from Kickstarter on Friday.  It's nice, but not tremendously reliable.  The d20 seems to always roll the same number.  I wouldn't mind if it always rolled 20s!




We did it

 After chickening out a couple of weeks ago due to the thunder and lightning we finally went camping.  All be it for only one night. Verdict:  A big success.

We picked the kids up a little early from school and drove straight there.  It took us 30 mins or so to set up and closer to an hour to put it away.  It's currently still drying in our living room!

Snigger

Saw this today and it made me snigger. It's from my weight app.

Damascus scraper

 One of the item's I favorited on Etsy had a heavy discount so I treated myself.  I have a scraper already but not one as nice as this!




This week's pitch inspection

 Or pitches are getting better each week.  More rain please, but not on Friday / Saturday as we're going to attempt to go camping again for one night this Friday.

One month till my operation

It's now one month till my nose / sinus operation. It's on the day of my daughter's 9th birthday. 
Can't be helped as it's the last time I can get it done before my contract ends and my private health insurance ends. 
It's been bothering me properly for 2-3 years though so needs to get looked at and if I really think back I've had this issue for 5+ years. 
It's a shame it's due to happen just as the rugby season starts but once again. It needs doing.

Only place for it

 My local pub lets local groups use the upstairs function room, my roleplaying group is one of them.  Another regular is a folk music get together and another is the Tonbridge Reform party.  This book was left in the function room so I returned it to its rightful home.
