Blog2026 ≫ Saturday is usually my most active day

Not today I think. I did skip parkrun, as planned. I did stay up way too late watching TV. Have taken T1 to work, going to pick him up in a bit, then we're going to Tesco to pick up some lunch, then we're going to be sat in the cinema for about fifteen hours watching The Odyssey. It's on the IMAX screen, haven't been to that before. We messed up very slightly getting tickets, not realising it is a certificate fifteen, so T2 cannot come, but we have rebooked him a ticket to see Minions at the same time. He will have some sitting around waiting for us as his film is considerably shorter, but I'm sure he'll manage. As long as his phone battery lasts. He has his pocket money on his phone now, so I can quite imagine him spending that on the arcade machines too.

Then not going out for dinner like I originally thought, going to save the money as we're eating out tomorrow and Monday too.

It's real hot again out there again. I'm not sure if this is still the same heatwave, or we're in a very hot gap between heatwaves.

Sunny and a moderate breeze, 16 - 25℃.
