I went out for a curry with some friends last night, have a fairly straightforward day at work today then a pizza this evening and have a day booked off on Monday: I have some DIY lined up over the weekend.

Should be a good showing of the Perseid meteor shower this weekend too. It peaks tomorrow, but it looks like it'll be cloudy. I might spend a bit of time in the garden this evening though, since it is supposed to be clear, and see if I can spot any.

I'm not from the UK but it's comforting to see your sub pop up in my /all feed after my move from the other site.

Hope you all have a good weekend!

I've had a good wee thanks. Looking forward to a nice poo later.

It was my wedding anniversary yesterday, so actually managed to sit outside at the pub and have a meal! Even our baby was well behaved!

Getting to wfh today after a hospital appointment. Feeling very tired after gettig no sleep the other night. Can't wait for a lie-in tomorrow.

Took advantage of last night being warm and drank a lot of wine with the wifey in the garden. Feeling surprisingly good today and looking forward to scrambled eggs for lunch 🤤

Going to the zoo today. So should be a pretty good one!

[–] Finnbot@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Love the zoo! Which one you off to?

It was Blackpool Zoo! Just to finish off our little holiday

[–] Finnbot@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Nice one. Love Blackpool - my aunt stays there so I was shipped off down there every summer. Not been in ages though!

Morning folks.

Happy Friday. Not for me though! Work are doing this stupid fucking push towards ai (years late IBM, as usual) and have arranged this stupid Watsonx challenge we have to participate in. I’m leading a team that aren’t bothering their arse. Work has given us hardly any notice and it’s all set up as a “sneaky” way to get us to train it I suspect.

Kicked off last Friday and the deadline is Sunday yet I’m still fannying around with Jupyter notebooks trying to get it set up and accepting the data. Clueless. Doesn’t help that there is zero context for setting it up, just a huuuuge list of instructions.

Last full day of holiday and going back to Heatherton as it was so good earlier in the week.

Driving up from Winchester to Edinburgh today, Seeing friends tonight and then the Tattoo tomorrow evening. It's been about (mumblemumble) years since I saw it at the age of 6 or 7. Forecast is a bit pants though so waterproof layers will be the order of the day!
