The Weekend’s Over – Relief!
That must be a first – relief the weekend’s over! Well I got through “the visit”. It wasn’t as bad as I expected I must say. G & I enjoyed the zoo (even though his brother & nephew complained after half an hour that they were bored) – we cut the visit short, I didn’t get to see the sealions but we can go back another day. There were loads of animals that weren’t out anyway, I loved the elephants last time but they weren’t to be seen as their enclosure was getting renovated, and the lions & tigers were all hiding in the shade somewhere :(
G only had a couple of drinks on Sat night which I was relieved about even though his brother got absolutely plastered – & he bought his 6 year old son shandy (yes shandy) to drink! Madness.
But my favourite was the Soccer Aid match at Old Trafford. I have been to a couple of football matches before but never really been too interested. I usually forget my glasses as well so can’t see the players properly & I’m not really too bothered about the footballers themselves. But this time I remembered my glasses (yay), I knew almost all of the players, the atmosphere was brilliant & I really really enjoyed it! I saw Robbie Williams, Olly from X Factor, Gordon Ramsey, Ryan Giggs, Ben Shepherd, Jamie Redknapp amongst others.
The devil child was annoying all weekend. He is spoilt rotten, his dad NEVER says no to him & he whined the whole time. I also think there is something wrong with him, maybe he’s just very shy & awkward but he is just very strange – he never smiles or shows any emotion. Oh to be an amateur psychologist. I don’t think he’s going to grow up to be a well rounded individual (not that I can talk).
G & I got on OK over the weekend, mainly because we could complain about the devil child etc.
No problems with my new anti-depressants either. My mouth has been pretty dry but other than that OK. For the first couple of days I actually felt less tired than usual but the last two days I’ve been shattered – probably because of the visitors etc. Ah well, onwards & upwards!
