THE WEEKEND

It's finally here. As you may have guessed from the higher than average number of posts today, it's not been very busy here today. In fact today has been possibly the slowest work day of the year so far.

So what does the weekend hold in store?

Sadly there are no major rugby games in the UK, not that they'd be shown here by the muppets at ESPN/Starsports anyway, so no need to be nervously checking the BBC for Tigers progress (we could really do with another few wins to get us into a spot for Heineken Cup qualification for next season - would salvage some pride from this seasons debacle).

We do however have some friends of my wifes family staying with us over the weekend. They have stopped off in Hong Kong on their way from home in Luxembourg to Dubai (you'd think Luxembourgers would have a better grasp on geography than that wouldn't you?) so I guess the weekend is going to be the usual tour of such delights as Stanley Market, The Peak, Times Square (for electronics), Mongkok (for some "brands" for the little Luxembourgers who have been left behind) and in the evenings a beer in L.K.F. and dinner in Indochine.

And of course some toast and marmalade before all of the above gets under way...

Anyway - I hope everyone has a good weekend, and Happy rest of St Georges Day to you all.
