Fun And Games

Well at least that's the plan. This weekend sees the 60th birthday of my sister-in-law. To celebrate the occasion ten of us are heading off to a cottage on Lake Windermere in the Lake District. Well it's actually on the banks of Lake Windermere not literally on the lake. That would be a boat not a cottage!! I seriously doubt I will get much time and/or much of a signal in order to converse with the bunch of reprobates I affectionately refer to as 'you lot here'!! So if you don't hear from me for a few days I haven't gone off on another six month hiatus/strop/bender/flounce/cry for help (delete where applicable). It's far more likely I am under the influence of alcohol and indulging in some old fashioned fun playing cards or board games or going for long walks with the dog. The only concern I have is that being cooped up in a cottage for 4 days with 8 of my wife's nearest and dearest may see any planned murder mystery game turn into the real thing. So if you don't hear from me by Tuesday there's a fair chance I'm on the run, a fugitive from justice, hunted like an animal, seeking food and shelter wherever it can be found, for the crime of murder by grievous insertion of Monopoly playing pieces. And that wasn't pretty last time!!!
