Things That Gladden The Heart

Micheal Smith is just outstanding tonight and looking like winning his first WC
 
MGV when interviewed yesterday.

“Asked about his final opponent, the 33-year-old added: "He's not going to stop me, no-one is going to stop me.”

One that may get some derision on here but, Lego.

A mate bought me a Lego set to build a Mandalorian Helmet for my 50th as he knew I was a bit of a geek. This kit is aimed at adults and I set about building it on Monday. Just 2 of the most relaxing, theraputic hours I have had in ages. Bit of music in the background, shut away for perfect peace and quiet and just something about the whole experience was very calming. I do not have the skills to build and paint proper model kits to the standard I would want to display and so this was perfect and I am now looking for the next kit to build (it will be the smaller ones as I am not stumping up over £500 that some of the bigger ones cost).

My daughter (27 years old) likes building Lego models if people buy her one as a present. The last one she did was Disney’s Cinderella Castle. It is massive.

I’m 43 and still build Lego. Didn’t get any this Christmas so will have to buy some. Last year I got the Technic Lamborghini. I’ve got a few sets on display, but most of mine is now in a box the lad and I use to have build battles.
 
Mrs started her new school today

5 min walk

Eldest and I walked her up

She had a lovely day by sounds , had lunch with eldests teacher from last year who she always liked so that was nice

Looks like all her nerves are gone and she happy

Home in time for the kids dinner and she seemed less stressed as much much less rushing around after work

Long may it continue
 
Back to 5 aside and a few pints after tonight. ?

Going to suffer in the morning though!
 
Mrs at work
Twins with nanny
Me and eldest off to the cinema and then Nandos for lunch

Dunno who's more excited ?

We left the cinema after 20 whole mins she didn't enjoy Lyle lyle crocodile

To be fair .. she's 5 and it was boring. You need more fast pace to get kids into films.. can't go slow pace

So went bowling

Nandos now lol
