So Ol' hook hand is going to be extradited to America. Human Rights law works perfectly, I'm sure you all agree.
If you could redo your 4 days off what would you have done.

I would have done more of the filling the preceding week
that way I could have got more of the painting done over the weekend.

I'm eating cheese and onion sandwiches,
but get this right, the onion and chives are actually WITHIN the double gloucester cheese. How fucking crazy is that?

Excellent thanks
Got some easter eggs, ate some of them, painted most of the hall, had the biggest bit of battered haddock from the chip shop, had roast pork made by the in-laws, managed to make it round the first 5 miles of a run in time to avoid shitting myself but my knee gave out about 2 miles later and I had to walk home.
And Arsenal beat Man City, which pleased me a lot.

Sounds like a fantastic weekend, all in all!
I only tend to get 1 or 2 eggs these days, I don't really have a sweet tooth as much anymore, so I'm never that fussed. Every year my Dad gets me one of the Green & Black's milk chocolate eggs though, they are fucking fantastic.
I saw family, got drunk with friends, laughed like an idiot, had a bleeding hand, not one hangover, and Liverpool didn't lose. Not exactly a spectacular weekend, but I've had far worse.

Mate, it's a scam, all the big companies do it, they say they're having a sale, a summer sale, a spring sale, an easter sale...etc.
They're only not having a sale for 24h a year, when they're closed. It allows for them to say 50% of when they've trippled their prices.
Don't be pushed into the hard sale, they'll be another open day/weekend/week/whatever in a month's time.
