Nice Weekend

Saturday: the sun was out. Me and cosmolinguist went to gym, had a nap, and then to B&Q to pick up more topsoil for mother_bones' new raised garden bed. Some genius had parked an ice cream van outside B&Q so we got to have ice cream. I got rainbow sprinkles in my beard and we christened me Captain Sprinklebeard, the My Little Pirate. I watched P play roller derby in Iceland, courtesy of a live stream. We had the last of the big shepherds' pie I made the other night for tea. Me and E did the heavy garden lifting and rewarded ourselves with mediocre beer.

Today, I had a lie-in but got up in time for M & A and their dog to come round. It was nice to see them, they stayed for a few hours and we spent time on the patio in the sunshine. In the evening I watched the Twins play the Giants at Target Field. E had to go to bed early, but I stayed up and watched the nail-biter of a finish, texting updates to E so he didn't miss out.
