Friday evening - Supermarket  :( because:

Saturday - drive to Bristol, collect youngest from dump student house, pack 3 months washing, 100 weird CDs, 6 books, contents of toxic waste dump kitchen, a collection of "clothes" that Oxfam wouldn't take and sundry other garbage possessions into Omega.  

The plan is then to go out for a meal, stay overnight at the house and set off back to Suffolk in the morning.  

Guess who won't be having a beer with his curry.  :(

Well, my MV6 has been in bits in the garage all week, so change the nice removable towbar for a shin breaker and finish the LPG conversion (as much as possible, without a vapouriser) and get it back in one piece I guess.

You must earn far too much if you can afford to do a PPL!!!!

I got a scholarship in my school days and did 20 hours towards it. Went back to it 10 years later and managed another 10 hours or so but got divorced and had to empty my flying account to be able to live  :( :( :'( :'( Perhaps one day I'll be able to finish it!!!

As for the crane simulator... It's only for the smaller gantry cranes this time but I'm hoping to get up the bigger ones in the future!!

In the NHS? I should be so bleeding lucky!! Have quite a few contacts locally  ;) so it is well subsidised  :) have done quite a bit of flying and gliding from an early age. Seems to be very popular here. And I was an air cadet as a kid, which was cool. Would love to (but never will) fly a private jet  8-) 8-)

still want a go in your crane  :) Swap ya for another 10 hours flying  ;D

Mrs TheBoy is away this weekend at her C&G course, so I'm free to do as I please :D

Think I'll get a pizza in tonight, and wash down with some beer. Tomorrow morning, a quick tech2 job.  If weather nice, I may look at a problem with the tractor.

Seeing as I'm going up to lakes early, need to sort out camping stuff, and need to tidy up the house a bit as well, as there are piles of clean washing on dining room table.

Rumour of a beer and curry night on sat night with JamesV6CDX and Tunnie

My Gran, who is 97 has been putting me to same for years.

Totally independant, all though she shares a bungalow with my Auntie, and she still tries to get out shopping most days.
