It's going to be messy...

The Boys are coming down again.

This time, I have taken Friday off work so that we get a three day weekend. Julio, who takes the concept of 'tardy' to a whole new and piss taking level, is actually due in about an hour or so (it's 00:30 Thursday night here) because Keith is coming tomorrow morning at 11 ish. He should arrive about 01:30/02:20. That may seem like an odd time to turn up to you (and frankly it is), but it's the only way that he can have any confidence of getting here before 5 tomorrow night. He gets astonishingly distracted by shiny objects and things that move/have buttons and is completely incapable of leaving less than 2 hours after he should have been somewhere. When he has a 3 or 4 hour trip (pending traffic) this is a bad thing.

He was on the phone just now telling me he was on schedule and all that, and was discussing how he had been on time last time and that we had been impressed. I pointed out to him that he wasn't, and that we had actually been impressed that he was only 90 minutes late; it being a record for him.

Plans for this weekend include much stupidity, taking the piss out of all and sundry and (the piece of the resistance as they say in france. Maybe) is a 3 foot long, electrically fired Rocket. It goes about 500ft up apparently, and comes down on a parachute when it has taken a picture. How cool is that?

I will record the stupidity, I assure you.

If no one else is going to make a brattish comment, then I fear I shall have to.

Brock, you have a 3 foot long "rocket," and it STILL doesn't work?
