Busy Busy Weekend.

A "long"weekend off work, Saturday 350 mile round trip to Northampton Uni in the warm sunshine, the only downside was having to get up at 5 am to be there just after 9. It is Beth's preferred choice of University after "government funding cuts" led to the cancellation of the "degree" course at Edgehill Uni in Lancs, she wanted to do. Nice Uni (Northampton) good accommodation/lecturers and presentation, providing she gets the required UCAS points she will start there in September.

Arrived home at 4.30pm taxi arrived at 6.30 to take us out for an "Indian" with workmate Graham and his wife Sue, lovely meal, great beer, good company. After "Scholes' " late late winner in the Manchester derby and Spurs demolition of Chelski, I was a happy bunny as we got home a bit the worse for wear after midnight.

Sunday after a short "lie in" we watched the Chinese Grand Prix great 1-2 for Maclaren.
Left home at 1pm for a trip over the Yorks Wolds to Knaresborough and a meeting with master reel maker Chris Lythe to pick up my Barbel Master special.
Took "The Berridge" with us he was very impressed with Pauls work.
