On Quick Updates

A quick update.

1) BB is visiting for a week. She is back for another week at the end of her Easter break. Her 21st birthday is coming up. She is talking about buying a flat with her boyfriend. She graduates in July. Still no job but she tends to take things sequentially. Degree first. Then Job. Then  Flat.

2) See point 1 - I am about to propose a complicated property transaction to my family. No downside there, folks.

3) Work busy - lots of side projects for me personnal and generally very busy. Feeling quite engaged but there is lots to do.

4) Drama club - I think I have finally lost my patience with drama club - being on the committee is no longer fun, no longer valuable, and not really helping me get what I want.

5) Rugby - ran my first coaching session as lead coach. Did the coaching plan and lead the delivery. Lots of hats invovled to try and get the kids to think about their structure. Went okay. Need to explain the concept more to the other coaches and being earlier to the location would have helped. I do like the kdis, they are good value and seem to be progressing and enjoying themselves.  We have a nice run up to the end of the season, with away games at Stirling, our own festival and what I suspect might be a grudge match at Lasswade. They were not good sports when last we played. (Any game in which the Captain is provoked in to scoring a hat-trick generally invovles some skulldugery by the oppposition. He strikes down with great vengance and furious anger when provoked.)There is  coaching challenge re Lasswade in that I think we'd quite like to beat them but that's not really our ethos (Play when we're 9, win when we're 18.)

6) The Amelia sitution seems to be moving to a close out of stage 1.

7) My youngest niece is doing well. It was nice to see her last week.

8) I am looking forward to having a bit more headspace to spend some time with some friends.

9) Brexit - not sure how long May can keep the Tory Party together as they confront the nightmare that they have created for themselves. Hopefully long enough that they are utterly unable to function as a party ever again but I think they will either break more gently and sooner or smuggle themselves over the Brexit line and end up with zombie internecine fight for the ten years it will take to sort out our future relationship with the EU and all the constitutional damage we've done to ourselves. It is a shame Corbyn is unsuited to his current role.
