Xin nian kuai le (Happy New Year)

Tonight we will be having a Chinese takeaway, OK so not your traditional Chinese new year but a great excuse not to cook and have some enjoyable food.

Not much happened during the week, I took Wednesday off work to spend the day in bed with the gf just cuddling, but even then I slept most of it. I played football Wednesday night and had a good game, stopped for a couple of beers after and nothing was said when I got it. Friday night a friend of mine came round and we had a few beers and caught up and watch some films, I have to admit, the last one I did fall asleep through, so will need to watch it again, we finished about half 3 so off to bed I went. Saturday we went to the in-laws to see my son's Aunt and uncle, she is 18/19 and he is 15, they both like playing with my son and catching up on what he has been doing which is nice and means the gf and I get an hour or so to chat to her mum and things. The gf's brother came round with his gf and her two kids, about 6ish we decided it was time to get some food, so of to the local kebab house, we took it all back to ours and felt quite stuffed afterwards, the kids went and played in my sons room whist we played the Wii. The gf brought herself Carnival:Funfair Games, its a great game, I didn't play it to begin with and was just having fun watching them, I then joined in and won about 5 games in a row and was accused of playing it before, which I hadn't but had seen my friend play it on his birthday. During the night we put the girls and my son to bed under his bed as a sort of camp out which they loved and they all seemed to go to sleep quite quickly which meant our Wii night carried on till about half 11 that night.

Sunday I cooked a roast dinner again as I find it enjoyable to cook a great meal without much fuss, making the batter for the Yorkshire pudding is a bit messy but when you get to eat them fresh it makes it all worth while and I have got my roast pots down to a T now and they always come out crispy. If I make a roast this weekend I'll try and take a pic and make you all jealous. Nothing much planned for this week apart from meeting my dad for a beer Wednesday but if anything happens I will let you know.
