Highlights from the weekend

Dad's Back home - After saying on Frdiay that he'd be in for the weekend, on Saturday morning the senior doctor changed his mind and sent him home. Both he and mum seem happy and mum is rested from not having to man-handle him about for the best part of a week.

Saturday - Sue and I drove Andy down to Bristol to collect a BMW he'd bought on eBay. On arrival it wasn't as described so money did not change hands. Andy's quite disappointed but lesson learnt.

Saturday night - went to Paul Faulk's 50th birthday bash in Loughborough. Sue drove which meant I drank! An excellent night with his brother's band playing "Irish" music, a loverly buffet with curry or chilli con-carne and rice. Some familiar faces, so not. We both enjoyed ourselves staying right to the end.

Mark rode up to Manchester on the A6 through Matlock, Bakewell and Buxton and spent the weekend with his girlfriend Eleanor. Says the road is a brilliant bikers road (I already knew that, but it shows that he's a biker at heart that he can identify it as such) and that he's looking forward to the next time in a couple of weeks time.
