I'm Running Out Of Ideas For Titles!

Hello everyone these weeks are flying by as we are now into May!

So last Monday was a bit of a nightmare at work due to having the Friday off for our Team Bonding day there were loads of messages and work to catch up on, but at least i was busy and i was soon back home.

In the evening i watched the usual load of soaps before Kieron came in and joined me, watched a bit more tv and went to bed.

Tuesday work was good i still had plenty to do to keep me going, in fact a bit more than i thought as i left work 15 minutes late!

In the evening i watched some tv with Kieron as he didn't fancy playing on his xbox. We watched some rubbish tv until New Most Haunted came on, although it was the last in the series!

Wednesday not alot happened at work just same old stuff, phones were a bit manic but nothing to major!

Wednesday evening i watched The Apprentice which was absolutely brilliant! So, so funny! Their task was to sell some sort of greeting card. They had to come up with an idea, make some examples and then try and selll them to Tescos, Clinton's and Celebrations. Team Alpha came up with National Singles Day and Team Renaissance came up with Save the Environment card! Alpha won and sold the most cards however Sir Alan made a really good point by saying who would the Singles send there cards to? and Renaissance badly lost as why would you send a card (which is made from trees) to send a message about saving the Environment/Planet?

So after that i went and watched Kieron play Grand Theft Auto 4 before going to bed.

Thursday work had slowed dramatically down for me but i didn't care as me and Kieron were having Friday off so i was just waiting for the clock to strike 5.30pm! Which (obviously) it eventually did!

Thursday evening me and Kieron planned our day ahead with exactly what we were going to do on Friday.

Friday morning me and Kieron were up nice and early as we had British Gas coming round to replace our electric prepayment meter with a normal credit one. The chap was there for about 40 minutes and then was out of our way.

Me and Kieron had to phone the bank to sort out a few problems but that was all sorted finally after waiting for god knows how long in a queue!

Next me and Kieron set about putting together our new chest draws, which we've had for awhile but wanted to wait as we were expecting a delivery from Argos with the matching wardrobes. So Kieron got all the pieces on the floor, got the instructions out and spent the next hour trying to figure out how the hell it went together. Kieron is no means thick, he is an engineer and spends all of his day taking things apart, re-building and putting back to gether (with no instructions!) but these drawers were silly!

Anyway Kieron lost his temper with it all, he had had enough he had got half way through to find some of the holes weren't drilled in the right places and we hadn't got a drill! In the meantime Argos had arrived with our wardrobes (flatpack), so we left them i nthe hallway, down went the tools and off we went to the cinema to see Iron Man which we had been waiting for!

It's another brillaint film from Marvel Robert Downey Jnr is amazing and they've gone all out with the special effects.

After the film we quickly popped in to mum's to borrow her drill so that Kieron could at least finish the drawers, which he did. We then sat down and had a rest before tidying up a bit. In hte evening we had a curry and we watched tv.

Saturday was another busy day as we were going to put together the wardrobes. As Kieron was getting all the bits out of the boxes i started to clear up some of the cardboard and load it in the car to take down to the tip.

I went down to see mum, nan and grandad as usual whilst Kieron took a break from the wardrobe building. When i got Kieron had done a bit more but due to lack of space in the bedroom he was finding hard to move, so we moved the new wardrobes aside a bit and started to demolish the old ones (which Kieron thoroughly enjoyed!).

I started to load the car up again with bits of wardrobe to take down on Sunday to the tip adn Kieron carried on building. It was soon 8pm and we had finished!! Kieron went and had a shower and i put away our clothes. We went and sat down in the living room to watch tv and had some cheese on toast and then finally went to bed.

Sunday we did bugger all! I took most of the old wardrobes to the tip and then me and Kieron went food shopping. When we came back Kieron played on his xbox and i did some more tidying up. In the evening i went down to nans for tea, Gaz wasn't there as he had gone out. We watched the first half of the Snooker final and then i went home to bed.

Bank Holiday Monday was a great day. The plan was to go with Steve and Natalie and their two kids Lucy and Phoebe to Kings Norton park and have a picnic but due to the weather we had a slight change of plan.

We decided we would go the Navigation pub on the green for a pub lunch and then we would have an indoor picnic for tea.

Me and Kieron went down to the co-op to buy some bits and bobs for the indoor picnic and then went over to Steve and Natalie's. We got Phoebe in her pushchair and off we went. We walked through the park so that Lucy and Phoebe could have a bit of a run around before going into the pub. It actually looks very grotty and old on the outside but its not too bad on the inside. The food is good aswell and very reasonable. We had a natter and a laugh and the kids went outside in the activity playground bit.

We were there a couple of hours and then set off back to Steve and Natalie's. We all had a sit down and a drink and Natalie put the kids to bed. Steve and Kieron set up the xbox and me and Natalie went upstairs to get our fill of the Soaps. After that we had our indoor picnic and sat around chatting for most of the evening. Its was soon 11pm so me and Kieron said our goodbyes and headed back home to bed.

Well i think that just about sums it up for me but before i disappear for some reason i can't leave comments on my shout box from my computer at work so in reasponse to the real Lank all i can say is we must both be really great people if someone wants to impersonate us (hpw do you get around so quickly?)

cheerio :)
