Uh, what patience and understanding? I got a refund on the unit after about a week of waiting and trying stuff out. I won't buy one of their drives again.

Quick trip to Mum and Dad's on Friday, with an afternoon off work thrown in, to be there for a fabulous family barbecue for Dad's birthday - I knew it was his 60th really. Just a flying visit, but still really good, nice to see so many people in one go. Trained back to Folkestone (via London) and we were home again in time for tea on Saturday, and another night out. Shame it was at my least favourite pub in Hythe but it was good anyway to just hang out with people. I even drank lager.

I always complain about the taxis back from Hythe, it's always a nightmare trying to get one at peak times. I must always be complaining so loudly about this that I never get around to paying, because this week I did, and it was SEVENTEEN QUID! Just to get back from Hythe to Folkestone! Lordy.

Today, a day of grocery shopping, cooking for the week (Clare's making jerk chicken and salsa and I'm doing a bean stew and sweet potatoes), preparing a couple of disks of music for someone's wedding next weekend (still not decided whether to drop a few tracks of my own choosing into the playlist), and trying to get my external hard drive working. I've given up, it is faulty, I'm getting a refund. I've found lots of other people who've had problems with this drive, so I'm not bothering with a replacement.

Has felt like a nice long weekend really, coming back from Fareham but still having a whole day to ourselves here. Chilli for tea tonight, and Midsomer Murders...
