The weekend

...was lovely. We did everything and nothing, especially yesterday. We started the day by having a lazy morning catching the end of London Marathon on telly. After that we went into town on our Sunday walk which means we go to WHSmith and buy a magazine/newspaper. As it was the 3rd Sunday of the month, there was a farmers market outside John Lewis and we bought a roast pork sandwhich (fantastic!) for lunch and ate it while sitting on the steps of City Hall. Once finished we took our stuff to Bungalows and Bears where we had a drink and a read for a couple of hours. And after that we had another stroll through town as it was lovely weather and we ended up outside the Crucible where there's the World Snooker Tournament. We went inside the info-centre and read up on the history of snooker - very much needed for me!

As Boyfriend was staring to get a bit peckish we went back into the Winter Gardens and bought a Panini that we ate while watching a bit of the tournament on the big screen they had put up outside the Crucible. After a while Boyfriend talked me into watching a movie at the Showroom so we went there. The one he wanted to see wasn't on at that time so we ended up watching Half Nelson. It wasn't too bad, a bit slow but in a way a comfortable pace. It's about a history teacher played by Ryan Goslin who just happens to be crack addict. I was mostly annoyed about recognising the guy but not remembering where from so when I came home I realised it was "Young Hercules"!

It was nice to get out of the theatre and it still being daylight. I like doing things over the weekend and get out of the flat as the day feels longer and not "wasted". We just spent the evening watching House and cuddling up on the sofa. I really like House, he's awesome. My mom likes it too, apparently, and told me that she could see me as "House" if I had decided to become a Dr... I decided to take it as a compliment.

And as of 2400 last night, the weekend was over. It was a good one.
