They're still at it - all those mysterious monday commuters. Its not a good start to the week my good mood upon leaving the house soon disolved on the outskirts of Glasgow.
The weekend was quite good. Milos current wakeup time of 6:30am leaves me forever "just a bit tired". I try to go to bed earlier but given that when everyone else is in bed is the only time I get to myself I am reluctant to eat into it. On Saturday however Abby and Milo went to a birthday party leaving me a precious whole afternoon to myself. I immediately resolved to do as little as possible and spent a pleasent few hours catching up on some reading. I also decided to have a look at one of the minor problems effecting my car. When I was young my Dad kept our cars running and it has always seemed a little bit lazy to me to get garages to do the minor repairs. When I had a company car of course this wasn't an issue but now I own my own it seems like I should be able to at least do some things to it. With this thought in mind I purchased a haynes manual a couple of weeks ago and investigated the various minor things that need doing to it. The easiest was the one that was the most serious - the brake light was comming on pretty much all the time. So on Saturday a bit of tinkering later the swtich is reset and only comes on when it is supposed to. Most satisfying.
On Sunday we went out for a walk in the Pentland hills which was most enjoyable.
My good friend Rick has entered the weblog fray.
