Hallo all
Back from art exhibition - our tourism office holds one once a month, featuring a local artist. The wine cellars around here sponsor the wine, and all proceeds go to charity. Packed, which was really good, but people started leaving early - SA playing Wales, I hear.

Book-in-bed time, so have a looooovely what's left of Sat evening :l:l

G'nite Dreamy. See you on the morrow.

I didn't even realize there was rugby on, tbh.

Haven't read back yet. We had a very busy day in the end, but winding down now. We all need to be in bed early, though. We need to get up at 4.45, leave the house an hour later, drive to CT and park near the finish. From there we take a train to the CBD for an 8.00 am start.

Reportage, everyone?

It's 10km Molls, but it involves a whole trek.

It's a huge event. The largest of its kind in the world, if I'm not mistaken. All in aid of charity, so that serves as a bit of a motivator.

I've already done the weekly shop, so we can just chill when we get back.

Hiya gg.

Mrs. T has a strange laundry fetish. A weekend isn't complete without her having done at least two loads. And we have a housekeeper three days a week, FFS. Luckily I don't need to get involved. Apparently I'm clueless about the correct way to put stuff on the line. I'll remain blissfully ignorant, methinks.

Thanks Molls! My vote is still for disposable clothing! Nobody will listen, though.

Well, as it was explained to me, in AA, you (everyone) is encouraged to say 'Yes' whenever possible. And, if the person I asked was to decline, it would not be personal. Principles before personalities

So, I did summon my courage and asked, and she gave me a big smile and simply said 'Yes'

Hello Tipps! That's quite the walk! 10K! *gulp*

They make their money through the entry fees and corporate sponsors. Individual participants don't raise money on their own.

Was just going to offer Mr JC's laundry service to SunnyGG but she must have gone to take another load out. With him being up at his Ma & Pa's all day I've had to do it...........just how many under dogs can a 25 year old wear in a week.

Only bits of X-Factor I've seen have been courtesy of Gogglebox on Channel 4.
