Birthday Blues!!!

Hello there people,

Well it's been a fairly busy week, firstly work has been manic. As Architects we are Quality Assment 'Registered' so that people know we aren't cowboys. It also means that our Practice has to have set rules on how EVERYTHING is done, and i mean EVERYTHING.

So, this Thursday we have a man coming to the Practice (who will be here ALL day!!!) going through our QA Manual and basically making sure that we are doing what we say we do. So everyone is running around like headless chickens making sure everything is where it should be and up-to-date!

Anyway on with the blog -

Last Monday evening Stuart came round to have a go on my Wii, however he started taking the 'Boxing' on Wii Sports a bit seriously and managed to put a faint scratch on the wall where his hand (and my controller) hit it!!!

Thursday evening Rosey, Emily and Dan came round (Jim was away on training with Flu!) to have a go on my Wii. We had Chinese and then i showed them Wii Sports and Warioware. Emily and Dan got into the bowling but they didn't really seemed bothered by it!!!

AHA - at last the weekend was here!!! Me and Kieron had booked Friday and Monday off as it was his birthday on Saturday and we wanted to have a long weekend. So Friday Telewest were coming to fit cable as we get no reception!!! So whilst Kie sat playing Zelda and waiting for Telewest to arrive, i went to Tesco's with mum to get the shopping out of the way. We then popped into Kings Heath for 20mins as i needed to pay some cheques into the Bank and i needed to buy a broom!!!!

When mum dropped me back home, Telewest had been and gone. So we now have 30-40 channels to watch in peace - excellent!!!!!

Saturday was Kieron's birthday, and the poor old bugger turned 24! He doesn't really bother about his birthday much so he wasn't over joyed!!!! We went to my mums in the afternoon as nan & grandad and mum had bought him little prezzies, he cheered up alot when mum got the wine out!!!!

Stuart and Becky arrived at mums at about 5pm, as we were all going out to an Indian Restaurant called 'Sweet Chillies', and its not all balti's and curries, they do a range of Indian food. I had a chicken biryani, Kie and Becky had Chicken and Potato Balti (which looked really nice), mum had a lamb balti, Stuart had a Chicken Tikka rogan Josh and Gareth had Malibu Chicken. All in all it was a good night, we all had a laugh and a bit to drink, but soon it was time to leave. Stuart and Becky had other plans to go out, but mum and Gareth decided to come back to ours. We got home and Kie invited Steve round. We played on the Wii for ages, i dropped mum back about 10.30 and when i got back to the flat, they guys had put on Warioware (which is really bizarre and you do need alcohol to play it!!).

Gareth was really good at this puzzle game and got to level 30 ot of 50. We soon decided to play Atmosphere, we played one game of Khufu: The Mummy and then one game of original Atmosphere. It was way past 1am, mum came to collect Gaz and Steve ventured off home too. It was a great night and i think it cheered Kieron up!

Sunday was quite a boring day, the only thing exciting was i went to my nans for tea!

Monday (yesterday) i went to the hairdressers at 11 as my hair was way too long for my liking and needed cut-off. So i had a good gossip with my mate Catrina who always cuts my hair!!!!

I called into mums for 10mins to make sure she was ok. I got back to the flat for about 12pm and Kie had gone out. Not too long after my phone rang and it was kieron telling me he had gone to kIngs Heath and was having problems in Argos and said he would be about 30mins.

I got myself a pot noodle and settled down to play on my Wii. After getting frustrated with Warioware, i sat down to watch a bit of TV and Kie came home. He had bought himself a weights workout bench ( a little treat to himself for his birthday!) and he had also bought new towels for the bathroom.

That was about it!! Not a overly fun and amazing week but i had a nice weekend!!! Next Saturday should be a laugh as i bought Kieron for his birthday a 2 hour skiing lesson, so until then...

Tat-tar!!!
