My perfect Friday evening

You can tell I've become a BOF when I think this is a good Friday evening. Wife and family are out of the way for the evening so my plan is:

4.30 - leave work.
5.00 - visit hardware/tool store for some hardware and tools, surprisingly.
5.10 - pick up takeaway supper.
5.20 - home, eat.
5.30 - into workshop, finish some welding.
7.00 - into house, watch "American Hotrod" while drinking beer.
8.00 - shower.
8.20 - surf car websites while watching some "Mythbusters" and later "American Chopper".
10.30 - wife home, hopefully with desert.
10.45 - early night, so as to get an early start in the workshop on Saturday.

Cheers

Fred W B

This time of year, when its getting dark when i leave work , it bike lights on for a spot of nightime mountain biking.

40mph through trees in the pitch black with just a tunnel of light to ride in, cool!

Sounds good to me, but perhaps forget the shower and have another beer.

- get a beer on the way home (happy hour before 6.30)
- have a natter with the better half when I get home
- get a decent Indian takeaway from the local best one in town
- fill my face with far too much plus loads of good red wine
- go to sleep in the chair with the TV on
- wake up at about 12.30 and go to bed

boring old fart

Mine's a less than exciting plan
3.30- leave work early, since the boss is limes away
4.00- get home and realise I forgot to turn the heating on so sit in front of computer reading locostbuilders and having a beer.
6.00- wife home, get nagged at for forgetting to get dinner ready (and I will, even having typed this out!
)
6.30- get back from shops with dinner
6.40 another beer and more locostbuilders.
7-8 mate arrives with xbox and loads more beer
8-2 paly games, annoy misses and drink beer whilst farting.
2.30- go to bed and get told off for trying to get my drunken leg over.
