So after Thanksgiving we're returning the cultural exchange by having a curry night

Looks like it might be a  slightly wet but not snowy Thanksgiving :-(

Spent quite a bit of time yesterday playing with my new toy – an Asus MemoPad HD7.  

So fat I'm quite impressed with it – it's big enough to use as an e-reader or for watching movies without it being too big and some apps like Juice SSH and even Facebook work better with the increased screen estate compared to my Galaxy S3.   

I'm still getting used to the ASUS tweaks to the Android GUI and of course as a lot of my recent Android usage has been on my S3 where Samsung have done their best to completely hide Android under their bloated UI with all the useless apps that I never want to use but can't remove, its taking a little longer than I expected. I keep managing to find functions and features and then lose them again and spend ages trying to find them.

Actually I'm not where it says I am as there is some big party going on ..so I'm in the coffee bar


Must stop playing the game though !

It's looking a little wet in Boston for this coming weekend and it's looking a little cold in Augusta next week… Might need to dig out the long johns

Being on call over the weekend and working overnight on Saturday to Sunday wasn't that bad and the money will be nice but there was a lot of stuff that I really needed to get done so we can fly out Maine for Thanksgiving. 

I think I might have to draw up a task list of things to do each night and tick them off. Got a lot of stuff to cram into next weekend which I couldn't do this last weekend  – that includes getting a pile of junk out of the car and into the recycling centre so we'll actually have somewhere to put the suitcases.  

Actually suitcases are the first thing on the list – we know they're in the house somewhere – I suspect I might have to venture into the loft.

Going to be some big bangs tonight.

I always wondered why I used to get buzzed quite quickly when I was drinking it..now I know. The bottles in the USA don't carry the abv

Beer!
