Hockey and Eastbourne

The weekend was extremely busy non-stop. Friday night was spent doing my expenses and invoicing - incredibly early for me in the month... Saturday I played hockey for the 2's against Abingdon 1s. We won 1-0 but it was hard work - I was left half and then right half (much better) but I was working from D to D - very tired by the end of it. Very pleased to get the win though. Back home and in the bar for a few beers - and serving a few too!!

In the evening worked again for a few hours - mostly on my sister's web site I've just 'launched'. It is nowhere near finished yet, but it is good practice for Actinic V9 - my first launched site in V9. I waited for V8 to be stable but never seemed to get there and then they launched V9!! As I've been working with Actinic since V2 I know you have to wait a while before it is stable... In fact, I've been working in V9.04 all day today on another site and had a few crashes which has been rather annoying. Regular snapshot backups...anyway, I digress.

Anyway, so went down to see the Watts family on Sunday in Eastbourne. Good value as always, arrived nice and early played some games on the large lawn - though it was fairly chilly, nice roast lamb, then down to the beach to soak a few items of clothing. We had a look round the rock pools off the end of the normal beach but didn't really find much this time - the tide was right in pretty much.

Very busy week this week with work every night - and probably not playing hockey this weekend as Katie Shaw / Shanksy's weddding which should be a good knees up. Saying that I think I might be playing at the Windsor mixed hockey tournament on Sunday - last one (Wallingford) we cancelled so assume this one is still on...

Two Parties, The Beach all in all excellent

I had an excellent weekend last weekend. I played snooker with martin and charlie on the friday night - and I won which was even better. Then straight down to Eastbourne on Saturday morning for Harry's birthday party at 11 - not so great I think i was caught with a mobile camera on the A23 just past Gatwick.

The party was great and we stayed there until Sunday lunchtime - we also went to the beach which R & J love doing - though it was bitingly cold.



Then back for Eve's party on Sunday afternoon - they were pretty tired by the end of that though as can be seen here where they are content to look after Anna. It wasn't the best nights sleep ever though either.



The week has flown by - i've been covering Cater For You this week - its been enjoyable though getting back involved in the day to day business again - and its so much busier than this time last year. But i've been balancing that with my other work as well - did over 12 hours yesterday. The largest amount of work I can talk about is I've almost completed a brand new section on CK Tools on the CSE Buy online web site. I think that'll be a rather good seller - i fancy some of the kit myself!

Still feel ok today - but next week i guess i'll be paying!!

I've had loads of web site enquiries recently as well which has been a bit odd - they tend to come in flurrys though.

Playing hockey again this weekend - though not particularly looking forward to it - High Wycombe - and i've a hacking cough still - had it for three weeks. Might also be playing on the Sunday as well.... maybe.
