Holiday

Well I've been looking at luxury holidays as i had a good win on the horses recently which left me with some nice spare cash so i thought I'd treat my self to a nice fancy holiday.

I quite like fish so I've been looking into places where snorkeling is on offer with good views. so its either the Maldives or Seychelles. these are usually places that people can only ever dream of visiting.

I've also narrowed my hotel choices down slightly as well to the Baros in the Maldives and Banyan Tree Seychelles both seem to offer what i need and am looking for, but i think i'm going to have to sleep on it for a few days before i make any decision. I've been looking through pictures of both hotels on Flickr and on Trip Advisor.

Anyway I'll keep you posted on what i decide. :)

Its Finished

Finally its finished the wooden garden room is finished in my parents garden and its really posh and nicely finished inside. my parents have painted it a choice of there own color which suits the dark flooring. Even the garden was left really tidy, which is a rarity as builders are usually slightly messy to say the least so i'm pretty impressed with Oeco.

I gave my weekend up helping my parents tidying up the grass and some of the flower beds that they have, We cut the grass did the edges, threw some extra lawn seed down and some basic aerating. Hopefully i can paint their fence on Saturday if the weather is nice enough then they should be good for this year and next diy wise.

Spend Spend Spend

Well it seems that my parents are on bit of a spending spree at the moment, they got a new car last month, a Ford Focus so that must of set them back £12,000 at least as its delivery mileage and on a 60 plate, i think the dealers have had it kicking around while and did a good deal to get rid. They've now just ordered and Oeco garden room its a decent size to, so its not piddly small but not huge and unlike to look out of place in the garden its 5m x 4m with an over hanging canopy, so it should look pretty swish when its done.

Although i can't help thinking that my inheritance is been spent away merrily :(

Down to London

Well when Ive been down to London before we've made some pretty cool friends and ones offered for me to go down over the weekend, thankfully i don't need to fork out for a St Pancras hotel as they are going to put me up at their flat which is pretty cool and will probably save me at least £70, that's half of a good night out in London.

I'm tempted to drive down on Friday afternoon so that i hopefully avoid all of the rush hour traffic. it also mean that we can pretty much go straight out on Friday night, I'd probably drive back Sunday late afternoon allowing me to be fully sober and be home in time for a bath and bed.

Temple Run

Temple Run Online is a new hit game that has been out on the iTunes for a few Weeks now and is already set to be massive, there have been few games since angry birds that have been claimed as better than, those where Bike Barron and of course Temple Run.

Temple Run is a pretty basic idea, all you need to do is run round the Aztec maze collecting the golden coins, but you have some crazy messed up monkeys chasing you, collect to many golden coins and you'll be slowed down allowing the monkeys to catch you and take your health away from you. your constantly ducking and diving over obstacles. theres no levels to Temple Run but you just have to survive for as long as you can before you die

Dating

Well after last weeks labouring i got home and was pretty stiff to say the least after hauling bricks round for most of the day, and what i missed is someone to give me care and attention when i got home so Ive decided to sign up on a online dating website to see if there's any lovelies out there for me. i haven't told any of the lads yet but i guess when they realise then I'll be in for some stick. Its hard to get talking to someone when your out with the lads as they always seem to be around or if you manage to sneak of they always end up finding you and make you feel bad for leaving them. I'm back doing some more brick laying tomorrow for my friend we manged to get the first few bricks down but its been left for a few days now.

Bit of Labouring never hurt

Well tomorrow I'm set for a day of labouring bricks to and from a friends back garden so he can build his new wall. Its quite funny actually as he's just moved into this house and we've always said that his fence was a bit wobbly to say the least and with the recent bad winds its errmmm, all fallen over.
So he's building a small wall with panels in sections between every pillar. It should in theory look good, hopefully he's digging foundations today. and getting all the concrete from the builders. To fill the foundations tomorrow then over the weekend we can get the first few rows of bricks done.
