What we all up to this weekend eh?

OK it's only Tuesday, but I'm licking my lips at the prospect of a nice run down to Wales & a blooming great big fly-in at Abergavenny. Mrs. Punter doesn't much fancy the idea of strapping an oversized kite to her ar$e, so I've got a visa to go out with the lads & get lashed into the bargain!

Wot are you lot up to?

Rebuilding the kitchen, weekend number three: laying a terracotta tile floor.

Have to keep myself occupied as the bloody CAA have taken my medical away

Stag weekend at Ascot followed by a rehearsal with a 12 piece funk band on Sunday

That should cure the hangover nicely

2000 KM trek north. Crossing the water on a cat (apparently) and eating motorway "food"
Looking forward to that
Should be cooler than here at least.

Maybe a BBQ on the beach at Bournemouth, weather permiting. Fly if anyone needs instruction (anyone out there fancy a lesson at Bournemouth Airport?), perhaps a bit of writing on a manual I am trying to work put together.

Shame I am missing the heli fly-in at Weston. Enjoy it under-exposed.

G-ALAN,
Don't kill yourself over that.
I have been trying to become "gainfully" employed since I failed my medical some months ago.
It's hard, but not the end of the world.
I am fortunate that I'm still able to maintain an income today which I am gratefull for.

Look at the bright side. You (probably) live in a country with freedom of speech and if you are reasonably healthy................(antibiotics?)............
Also, you will get the rain we have been looking for since March!

Best of luck.

Well, looks like the wx isn't gonna play ball after all this w/e, so I might have to change plans. Not looking so smug now am I?

Removing the hammock ropes and changing them to bungee's.

LADY G. let him nod off in the hammock but we'll use bungee's instead of rope. When he's asleep, towrope on the hammock pull back and fire the blighter out of the garden!

I already have a job, It's just really crappy and I bloody despise it with passion! I'm trying hard to get out and break into aviation line of work. I do live in a good country mindyou, there is no where else I would rather be than the UK, even though it has all its faults it's still the best country in the world, I'm proud to be British (ducks to avoid the on comming projectiles) And antibiotics, I have a chest infection that's why (cough cough )

G-ALAN, you can get pissed on most antibiotics, except a few when you will really wish you hadn't. Feeling lucky?
