A weekend less travelled

Hello, me little dudefaces. :teehee: I bet you didn’t expect today’s blog entry to go like THAT!

For those who are playing from abroad or interstate, yesterday was a holiday here in little old Queensland … Labour Day, which we celebrate by doing no labour whatsoever. I’m not complaining, except that it means the cinemas and eatieries are jam-packed with school kids.

It was a very quiet weekend actually. It never seems like a real weekend without Brek or Glara’s involvement, but we got by without them. Broncos on Friday night was a treat. Saturday was spent with dog visitation and then helping dad with a computer issue. And then the Lions that evening. The weekend was shaping up great.

Then along came Sunday, with the call of accounting to be done at Leyton’s place. Spent a few hours there before I had to leave to help M&D to the airport. Noumea, for those wondering. Spend Sunday night chilling in front of the tele - watching L&O:CI and NCIS double feature. :cool:
Monday I slept late and then had lunch and movies with Berny. We were going to hit Oportos, but it was closed. :wtc: Second choice was HJ’s, where I stole a voucher from the chick behind the counter and ordered with that. :teehee: Berny was dead keen for a six inch sub, even after the HJ’s, so I went along and ordered cookies. We then hit Baskins before movie-time.

Sahara is quite a good movie. Matthew McConaughey, Penelope Cruz, William H Macy, Delroy Lindo, and Steve Zahn as the comic relief. It tells two stories that become intermingled: one, a treasure hunter seeking a long-missing civil war ship, and two, the story of a plague in Africa. Good fun. Absolutely no realism whatsoever, but good fun.

We hit Foo for tea last night (after Woo got back from mountain biking in the middle of nowhere) and retired to our respective homes. I think Woo might’ve gone with Berny to watch a DVD at his place, but I can’t be sure. I know that I went home and rebuillt databases for online stores. Now THAT’S ENTERTAINMENT!
