😴 The laziest of lazy weekends, eating nice food, watching TV and films ❤️

🎬️ Skyfall (2012) ★★★★☆

📺️ Finished watching The Studio — hands down the best show I've seen this year ★★★★★

#weeknotes

🔋 Ran my car battery flat over the weekend; only realised when ready to go to work on Monday morning 🤦🏻‍♂

🎯 Had my first archery lesson this week. Katey and I both loved it! Cannot wait to go back for my next lesson (every week for six weeks).

🎂 Celebrated my great-niece's 4th birthday at a Frozen-themed party ❄️

🃏 Poker league night on Saturday. Finished 7th out of 9 but somehow still managed to extend my lead in the championship by another point. New rival has moved into 2nd place, but they're 4 points behind with only one game left to play. Tense 😂

🎃 Halloween at work so we dressed up our desks... and ourselves 🧟‍♂️

#weeknotes

🫖 Completely obsessed with Biscuit Brew tea bags (the malty ones, not the caramel ones)

🍒 Thank you science, for fusing two absolute top tier treats in their own right into these magnificent bastards [ yes, I've only just discovered them! ]

🐶 Took Ollie to play at a dog agility and adventure park to meet up with Mia & Milo

💼 Three-month review at work went very well 🤩

🏠️ Completely rearranged the lounge; Katey had an idea and it totally works!

🎬️ The Lost Bus (2025) ★★★☆☆

🎬️ Fargo (1996) ★★★★☆

#weeknotes

🎟️ Nosferatu (1922) ★★★★☆ Silent screening with live musical accompaniment (link shows the first seven minutes)

🏋🏻‍♂ Ended the weight loss challenge I was doing with a friend after four months of losing weight every week. I'm down almost two stone (12 kg). Aim is to lose more but it's the time of year where denying myself food just doesn't work for me. Slow, steady loss over the next few months will do me fine.

⚽️ Tried to watch Tobey referee a football match again. Cancelled, again!

🃏 Poker league night on Saturday. Went into game 10 tied for the lead with Harry. Managed to take the win! Katey took 2nd, so we properly cleaned up 🥳 Now 3 points clear at the top of the league with two games to play.

💉 Flu jab done – yay vaccines! 👍️

⚽️ Was supposed to be watching Katey's son Tobey referee a football match on Saturday morning but the game was postponed due to Storm Amy rolling in 🌧️ ☹️

🏋🏻‍♂ Last week’s weight loss: -0.1 kg

💪 Back at the gym again this week; only one session but used more machines and stayed for longer.

🎟️ Tried and failed to watch Hamilton at the cinema. Twice.

❤️ Best. Sunday. Ever.

🍔 Home-made smash burgers on Sunday with Katey were top tier 😋

🏋🏻‍♂ Last week’s weight loss: -0.1 kg

💪 First time back at the gym in almost a decade!

🎟️ Apollo 13 (1995) ★★★★½ (rewatch)

🏋🏻‍♂ Last week’s weight loss: -0.9 kg

👕 Lost enough weight to drop a size so bought some new t-shirts

🍫 O2 gave me a £10 voucher for M&S Food so got a £20 box of truffles (discounted to a tenner) for free 😋

🧱 Spent Sunday afternoon building another LEGO F1 car and watching 90's movies

🏋🏻‍♂ Last week’s weight loss: –0.2 kg
