Bit of a waste....

Today did not go completely according to plan.....

Today was meant to be the day that Mads (the floor guy) was meant to come over and start laying the new Slate kitchen floor..... that did not happen.

Long story short, he got stuck on another job where the basement he had tiled the day before had flooded.... which is not good. But that still involved me sitting at home when I should have been at work waiting for him to call. He finally did call later in the day and I gave him the 'grumpy' treatment. I basically told him 'you come now or not at all' and to his credit he did. He came over at 6pm (very rare for a Danish workman) to deliver the materials and get the floor ready for tiling on Friday morning....

Fingers crossed this will be covered in nice dark slate tomorrow.

I know, I know, its a great wooden floor and yes it's a shame to cover it but its a real PAIN to keep clean in the kitchen area. Every drip, splash or blob of food that hits the floor leaves a stain that is hard to clean off..... so don't hate me.

I'm back baby!

Hey internet peeps!

So how have you all been since we last saw each other? Good I hope...

Fee and me got back into DK last night after a rather 'mixed' weekend in London. All in all the trip was good and even tho we were there for some rather sad circumstances we still managed to make the best of things.

The day of my Grandads funaral was a nice sunny day and we could not have asked for better weather, so he had a nice send-off. It was only close family and it was actually very nice to see them all and catch up....but that's enought of the sad news.

For obvious reasons I did not take the D90, so here are some random iPhone pics for you to feast your eyes upon.



Coconut bubble peal tea from 'HK Dinner' in China town. Fee and me always try and grab some food and our favorite drink from this place when we're in London.



Two for one cocktails....sounded like a good idea at the time.


Normally when we hit London we hit it HARD and do some serious shopping, but again that was not the point of this trip as we were spending as much time as we could with family. However we did pick up a couple of bit's when we were out and about meeting people....we just couldn't resist.



Grabbed a few DVD's and CD's that were on offer at the Airport.... just don't tell me how they all end!


This is a great comeback album....a must buy if you don't already have it!


We really needed to get a new suitcase (pictures of that when it's not full of crap!) and while we were there we got this set of scales. Handy with all these luggage restrictions on airlines today.



This mould is for making chocolate spoons.....need I say more.


Sunday was nice as we meet up with Mama for brunch and my Dad came along, once we had our yummy brunch we said our goodbyes to 'Pop' and Mama kindly drove us to the airport. It was a typical wait in the airport but the flight back was not fun....at all. I wont go into detail about it but needless to say I will never be flying with Ryanair again.




Never again shall you have a penny of my money.


I Popped into work early but I had really bad stomach cramps from a meal in London. I was not feeling great on the plane and last night was not good at all. So I decided to take some work home, which is nice because I cant normally do that as a LEGO builder.


I had to build through one of my models to make sure the building instructions are OK, and this was a BIG model so that took up most of the day.


The rest of the day was spent paying bills, doing washing, trying to tidy up a bit and sorting out dates/times for people to come over and do work at the apartment. So blogging should resume as normal from now on and I will be thrilling you with my daily activitys like crime fighting and developing mutant super powers. Peace out!


PS.

I was rocking the 'skeleton' tee today :)

I hate the wind!

There I said it!

I hate the wind, and not 1/3 of the of the Chicago based 70's R&B band but the actual wind it's self.

Ok, I know pollen and sailors need to get to places but come on! For the past week all i've had is stuff blown in my eye and my hair blown around so I end up looking like Don King.


You guys are cool....I have no beef with you.




But you!!!! If I see you i'm going to kick you in the nuts!


There, rant over.
