New show

Found another new show, this one's on TMC.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1699748/

Hell on Wheels, watched the first episode and it's not bad. Kind of like Deadwood, set in the 1800's when America was building it's railroad across the country.

Funny insurance podcast episode

comedy: 07.05.12: Tom Wrigglesworth's Open Letters

Or at least it would be if you could still download it.

Change of career

We got rid of our old cleaner a couple of months back because she was rubbish so have been doing it ourselves since. Due to a combination of April having higher cleanliness standards than me and me being rather lazy we’ve decided to look for a new cleaner.

The first quote we got back was for nearly 3 times the price! A massive £22.20 / hour after tax. And they recommend two maids for two hours a fortnight for a house the size of ours.

Bloody hell! My hourly rate isn’t too a tremendous amount more than that! But I guess I probably don't look good in a maid's outfit.  Although, you don't know until you try...

Let's hope for April's sake that some of the quotes come in cheaper.

News for Ben

Ben, I know you've always wanted to get fit and now here's a chance to meet Wolverine at the same time as keeping fit.

He's been using a gym in Kettering this past week whilst filming his latest movie.

It's bloody hot

Just did about an hour in the back garden.  It's been a good while since I did anything out there.  Too bloody hot though.  Not great for a ginger.

New band name

April's new band has their first gig this Thursday at an open mic night in our favorite pub, but they still haven't got a name for the band.  Any suggestions? They wanted to call themselves the Remedies, but as chance would have it there was a band with the same name at their rehearsal studios so it's a no go.

Back to work tomorrow

After our week off we're back into work tomorrow.  Boo.  A week of work, then four days off with the extra long bank holiday weekend to come.  Then only three weeks to our trip to Portugal.  I've never been so looking forward to that.

Tenby

Here's a few shots walking round Tenby. Apart from the crap parking. Fairly nice. Great beach too. Plus I bought an Iron Maiden mug.

Any one for some food and chips?

Only in Wales. Tenby to be precise. A food and chip shop.

Our beast

Our golf buggy for driving around the resort. I was told off earlier for going round an assault course on it. Oops, it was only for off road vehicles.
