Day 222 - Good to catch up with friends - Required 610500, Achieved 599738

No update yesterday because of the big birthday party, excellent time all around, had the lesson of not standing too close to the barbeque well considered by the end of the day.  Not as many made it as we'd have hoped, but that just left more food for the rest of us, which is never a bad thing.

Still, A number of presents received, from the very useful (a journal of ranting...), to the strange (a book on sticker dressing for special forces...), with all manner of things in between.  A new game called Boss monster that will be reviewed shortly, and in general, plenty of time with friends, including some that I haven't seen in far too long.

The world is good, and with two more days off, I can build up some sort of word buffer hopefully to offset against the words I'm going to lose helping at Worldcon next week.

All in all though, good weekend

This is John Dodd in the Socialist Republic of South Yorkshire and Goodnight England, wherever you are...
