This weekend

OK .
So in the past 6 days, I've gone from here............

To here..........................
I started Saturday in unorthodox fashion: I had a back spasm on the A 1 (m).
When I pulled over to be sick I was thinking that I was doomed to never celebrate a birthday with my kid.
As I was sitting sideways on the seat. shoes in the gravel rubbing a bit of crap off my chin , watching the cop car pulling up behind me on the hard shoulder, I thought:
"Yep this weekend is buggered."
It was 7:15am on a Saturday morning and I was puking at the side of a highway sitting in a company pool car.
If you were a policeman pissed off at working a weekend graveyard what would you think?
After standing on one leg touching my left index finger to the tip of my nose and counting backwards from 100 by 3's , all the while explaining the purpose of my trip...... I was on my way. (Cop also divorced with a kid)
Things were looking improbably up.
My back still hurt like a bitch (and does as I type).
I had a great weekend and with the help of my long suffering sister, gave my daughter another birthday in as many weeks.
Hope you like the pics:






Sad?
Say it ain't so! OK then.
All is well it seems

My sister and her husband have a giant hot tub which was a big hit with my daughter. It soothed the back as well.
OK
Go about your business.Enjoy Venezuela Fi!
What does the next week hold in store?
God only knows!
Love to all

Nice photos Terry. It's great to see you've manage to pull Jess away from your ex's gravitational orbit and actually had a trip "out of country" together. Could Canada be the next destination? She looks like you a lot by the way. Glad to hear you've had a great weekend.

Watch you back bud - and try not to vomit in the presence of a peace officer form now on. Talk to you later. I have a few good London shots to send you. Be good, but if you cant manage that - be interesting !
