I'll be spending my Saturday in the machine shop working on the old car… Lots of things to do. Lots of things to clean. Lots of things to reassemble.

Sunday I will be recuperating and getting ready to start the week all over again

I'll be putting my feet up and spinning some records in my man cave.

For the last several months, all of our spare time (excepting a three week tour of Cape York last month) and some of my work time has been spent helping my Mother in law move out of her home of 50 years. She is a chronic hoarder so it has been a painful and arduous process. Property settles today, and thank f##k for that. I have earned a rest. And several cigars.

Doing some yard work, relaxing at the marina and smoking some good cigars.  Not too exciting, but it suits me just fine.

Super rugby final in Joburg followed by a midnight feast at the Butcher Shop (likely with another 5000 people!).

Reminds me of the lyrics to the song, "Up On The Mountain", by Dr Hook.

I'd be careful, John. If they bring in a new member of the band, you may wind up like "Al from the alley". :P

Looking forward to a craft beer tasting with a few friends tonight (Friday).

It sure looks like Diana and you are truly enjoying the beach!

Looking good Rob and Di!

Heading to Big Sky Saturday.  Be there for a week.  Wife is going to a legal conference.  We will hit Yellowstone and do some hiking.  

Nothing like smoking a good cigar in the wide open spaces.:D

My plans for the weekend will involve aggressively ignoring the Global Warming and Diesel/Petrol Ban threads. :D

I'm a newbie here,  so I'll tread gently,  but based on photo above  me thinks El Presidente's recent stay in the hospital was for a hair transplant,  and God knows what else,  and I can't find the right emoticon for this so WTH

I have to go to Vegas short notice tomorrow - will do my best to smoke up a storm and made a reservation at Bazaar Meat :)

That is one diverse set list! Hope it goes well.

Played in club/pub bands for years until it started to clash too much with being off late from the day job, I do miss it, was hilarious fun. You cannot beat arriving somewhere on a Sunday afternoon to be told you are on before the bingo to deflate ones ideas of rock stardom ??

My last band was a Foo Fighters tribute act, probably the most fun I ever had with guitar in hand.  I now have a Gibbo Lee Paul and an Explorer sat doing nothing for the last 12 years or so, perhaps it's time to offload them and buy some more cigars ??

Had an electrician in today to replace all my old halogen downlights (41 in total) with new LED ones. Good thing I did it, after seeing the condition of my halogen transformers. Some even caused scorch marks on the wooden ceiling beams.
