Weekend Away

A bit of a busman’s holiday this weekend – away with 150 people from our church, to a very nice hotel in Sidmouth, where we have been several times, for a relaxed and fun social time.

There were lots of children – 40 ish? Several of them are past or present Paint Pots attendees. It was difficult to avoid them (not that I was trying to!) especially in the swimming pool where the question seemed to be who could splash David the most.

(Alright I might have started off encouraging it a bit but where were the parents when it got out of hand eh?  – sat reading the paper on the side of the pool and laughing at me, that’s where!). 

So anyway, it didn’t help my cold which, on my return home, is now threatening to develop into some form of ghastly man-flu and has rendered me very miserable and short tempered according to Mrs W. 

I have decided not to inflcit my germs or bad temper on anyone so am sat here with a warm laptop for company, feeling sorry for myself. 

I have finished a business plan for a new potential prospect. I just need to get the printer working so I can print it off, put it in the very official envelope provided for submission and have done with it.

I think I can feel a large medicinal brandy coming on this evening.
