Following a very busy week, with some very difficult tasks, we had the opportunity of a quiet weekend. A chance to relax, stay clear of almost everything electrical, and do walking (Jo did some paddling too, no me though) some serious reading. I started on "The God Delusion" - Richard Dawkins. Only three chapters in and it is hard going. It is such a rant! I'll do a review later. I also started "On the Edge" - The story of Richard Hammond's crash - for some light relief!

Busy Week - Quiet Weekend
Following a very busy week, with some very difficult tasks, we had the opportunity of a quiet weekend. A chance to relax, stay clear of almost everything electrical, and do walking (Jo did some paddling too, no me though) some serious reading. I started on "The God Delusion" - Richard Dawkins.

Party Weekend
Out of sequence - doesn't it just annoy you so much!
Saturday Jo and I attended a fortieth Birthday party. Lots of things were different about this party. The time in particular. Given that I had a busy Sunday to follow (see previous post), it was nice to be home and in bed before midnight. There was also live music and a singer, instead of the usual disco. Not my sort of music, but a good singer, and easy songs, and not too loud. So a very enjoyable evening. I had some very interesting discussions, and as a result was lent "The God Delusion". Can I refute the arguments of Prof. Dawkins, all on my own? It'll be an interesting challenge.
Sunday was the 18th Birthday party (family version) for one of our friends sons. I was pleased that both Andy and Mike could make it. We knew most of the people there, and it was good to catch up with a few of them. Jo did a cross stitch for him. It was one that I had scanned and manipulated, so if there are stitches out of place don't blame Jo. He's off to university soon, so it will remind him o home.
