Camp, Crickets & Tests

Joe's gone to Camp Seggie...it's about 5 miles away and I wanted to stay too, it looks that much fun! He's gone til Friday and since Sam has disappeared to his mate's in North Rustico, we have an empty nest...and after the initial 'We're Free!' hysteria...I can tell you it's crap!

Yes, we got to go out 'on the town', yes, I've not cooked a proper meal since they left, yes, I don't have to go round the house and clear up as much...but it's too damn quiet, I can tell you!

So, as I'm sat here typing, the sun is going down on a glorious blue, hot day - we're set for more good weather for the next week...and we have big plans for the weekend...Saturday is my work's car rally and bbq...which is a treasure hunt followed by a piss up...there's 6 of us going in our group, so a great laugh will be had by all! Sunday we're off on Lloyd's boat and there'll be 6 adults and 10 kids...should be great fun and the sea is fabulous when it's superhot!

The crickets are back - besidfes my typing, that's the only sound...Steve is away at a Soccer match til 9ish. I'm picking up Sam & Josh from Ida's around 10.30 - they are having a fire pit party...and Brodie's coming over tomorrow...so the pool will take some wellie!! and yes, Sam and Ida have made up.

Steve has nearly finished extending the deck, it should be done in time for our bbq on the 22nd...hope so cos we have around 60 coming...it's the gold cup here that weekend, so we'll all disappear to the harness racing after. Did I mention how much we love living here??

This Saturday the Canada Games start and we are hosting it here in PEI, there will be 4500 athletes arriving on Friday...so the place will be buzzing. We are going to go and watch the Soccer at some point.

I took another test for the Revenue, my third...it should have been a walk in the park BUT I got a migraine as I opened the paper - my own fault - it was 6pm and I'd had no food on a very, very hot day. It's pretty difficult when you can only see half the question and your brain refuses to process it...so I think I've ballsed up that prospect...never mind!

Mum is getting along fine.

I think that's all for now...I'll go and watch the local news, top story last week was a group of 'vandals' that had stolen a tractor and mowed down the fence of a local ice rink...imagine, shocking eh?!

Til Later!

PS Happy Birthday Joe Bez, Happy Anniversary the Bezerks! xx
