Some weekends are better than others

Well, what a splendid weekend, weather was great, and we managed to achieve some jobs around the block too. Thursday evening and Friday, Connor, Ronan and I went up to Mum and Dad's so as to collect a 1.5m wingspan model aeroplane (my new toy :-). We had a pleasant trip, and the highlight had to be having fish and chips with the boys sitting on a grassy patch near Napier wharf watching some boys fishing (not ours). Saturday and Sunday saw us do a little bit of wiring in the extension, I started putting the data cable in, and digging down to the lid of the septic tank (not really a nice job). Whereas this morning, we moved meemee and PorkChop into the area beside the arena with lots of grass, and Connor and I spent some time in the workshop. He was making a plane, whilst I was starting on the CNC milling machine. We both made progress so that's pretty cool! Then this afternoon we mowed the lawn, and basically strolled around admiring our last 8 years of hardwork. Now to have tea, put the boys to bed, and then maybe play a board game with Steph, a very pleasant weekend.
