A day off!! In fact four in a row (annual billing,  no systems). I'd worked time in advance to offset against the Monday, but still...

So off into town I didst go. I met up with the hound and the hound's handler and a brisk walk about the 'hood ensued. Then breakfast at the relatively new Quinn's (its local and allows dogs to sit under the tables. Plenty of Gallic types were in, popping out to puff on Gaulios in between savouring the traditional Scottish cuisine.

A school pick up, a football training session (first of the year) and in for lunch with Alex.

Predictably the pitches were deemed unplayable for Saturday so a restful rest of day followed (not really, but you know, relatively so).

The pulled chicken quesadillas were well enough received. Dishes, reading, Southampton v Norwich was the evening.
