Nor much of a writer either. I’ve spent a couple of days trying, and failing, to figure out the best way to write about what was a wonderful weekend. I’ve given up. And decided to let my handy little point and shoot, which spent the weekend in my pocket, tell you instead.

Friday:

Boy Z came to ‘work’ with me. On the bus. The bus, apparently, was the best part of the trip.

I’m pretty sure he was convinced that I worked as a bus driver, so it was a bit of a disappointment to him when we got off. Nonetheless, he found the ‘big kids’ at my university endlessly fascinating.

Surprisingly,  I didn’t get much work done, but we did do a fair bit of  ’sploring of the university campus. I like where I work.

That evening, Dr. O’C and I had out big evening out. With grownups. And music.

Saturday:

It is starting to feel a lot like summer in South Australia. So, Saturday marked our first trip of the season to the beach.

Sunday:

No weekend can be perfect.

Georgia Florida Football

I don’t think I want to write about football anymore this year.

 But meeting other bloggers has turned out to be good fun in the past and it certainly turned my Sunday around. Brunch with the charming Headbang8 will cure all that ails you.

We lazed the remainder of our weekend away; boys lounging in the first real heat of summer.

I’m really rather fond of this little family of mine.

Since Friday night, I’ve been listening to Gomez’s back catalog and it really is quite good. “Hamoa Beach” was one of my favourites from the show and is featured on 2006’s “How We Operate”, available from Gomez - How We Operate. And if you ever get a chance, they are very good live. They are headed back to the UK for a tour later this month.
