weekend [belated]

we had nice plans for the weekend, including going to a hawking display at Tintern Abbey on the Sunday - it was our sixth wedding anniversary, and that seemed like a nice thing to do to celebrate the day.

however, after perlmonger had been Very Stupid Indeed, we found ourselves heading up to Suffolk on Saturday morning, to see some dear friends of ours, Mark and Anna, who live in a converted railway station which I covet (and WANOLJ).

perlmonger spent a good deal of the weekend mending the webserver that he managed to comprehensively fsck last week, to the point where it had to be removed from Redbus (by Mark - thanks again!), and nursed back to full health. Anna and I nattered, went shopping for plants and food, and generally relaxed.

we returned offler to his rack on Monday, and trundled home down the M4. Lovely weekend, and all the better for being such a surprised. There are always places to go and see hawks.

this weekend, we're off to Wychwood Musical Festival at Cheltenham, at which we will see gmul - if anyone else is likely to be there, give us a shout!

and now - on with some work.
