Post by: Tamiyoman on March 27, 2012, 06:15:30 pm: Yup working from home permanently has its benefits, an hour on the driving range this morning, lunch with my neighbour at pub at the top of the road, took the dog for a walk on the beach (right behind the house) and the sea is like a mill pond, then washed my car this afternoon, managed to squeeze in 3 hours work too :happy2:

And tonight its steaks on the barbie with some salad :drinking:

Hiope the weather hold out until thursday as im off on our monthly golf society day (14-20 of us usually, all self employed lads), off to Greetham Valley for the day, my car staying at home as 4 of us wont fit with clubs so I get to drive my mates Range Rover :happy2:

Post by: VC on March 27, 2012, 06:52:38 pm: i know, shame on me :ashamed:

i'm normally a beach BBQ person though...

1. dig a hole in the dunes
2. split a bag of charcoal and light it
3. go surfing while it warms
4. slap grill on and food
5. eat food, remove grill add drift wood
6. seriously chill and watch the sunset

:innocent:
