I'm enjoying an ouzo on the rocks and watching the planes flying in, it's been a long hot week here 🥵

Bookaholic73 · 20/08/2021 20:23

Counting down the minutes til bed time

Notsurenow43 · 20/08/2021 20:23

Laying in a tent with my two preschoolers. Listening to the rain. It's quite peaceful.

PaperMonster · 20/08/2021 20:23

I’m in a very hot bath easing my aching body!!

Brokenrecord3006 · 20/08/2021 20:24

DS is in bed and DH is shaking up a few cocktails! We'll just chill, drink and chat in the living room and probably stick something rubbish but amusing on the tele.

Whadda · 20/08/2021 20:25

Having my first drink (a vodka and cola) in months and feeling a little light-headed!

Planning my day tomorrow. I will be alone all day long and want to make the most of it.

poolblue · 20/08/2021 20:25

watching the BBC Proms with a glass of white wine. May crack open the wine gums in a bit.

historygeek · 20/08/2021 20:25

Had a take away pizza and we are now watching Bob Ross' Joy of Painting. Because we are super cool.

PresidentJoey · 20/08/2021 20:30

I'm also loving this track - so wrong but totally works??

Sacreblue · 20/08/2021 20:32

Watching Ali off twitter chia seed her astroturfed car - makes me laugh every time secretly memorising how for future reference

NatWestPigFamily · 20/08/2021 20:33

We have just finished dinner and have got the kids in bed. Have shared a bottle of Prosecco with DH as a belated anniversary drink and now we are watching Mad Men and having a glass of Bailey’s.

MaMelon · 20/08/2021 20:33

Eating my own body weight in sweets and crisps whilst half watching some crap film that DH thought sounded good (Palm Springs - avoid it). It’s all going on here.

Gertie75 · 20/08/2021 20:34

Just got back from our caravan, totally shattered, we came back a day early because of the rain tomorrow.

I'm sitting drinking Pepsi max and trying to muster the energy to have an hour on my vr headset.

thewinehasgonetomyhead · 20/08/2021 20:35

Kids in bed, DH and I just had a takeaway and now we're watching Schitts Creek Smile

TheVolturi · 20/08/2021 20:36

I didn't even know it was Friday night! One day blends into the next during the school hols. Might treat myself to a tipple then 😂

Pebbledashery · 20/08/2021 20:38

I just had a cobbled together fridge dinner, put a wash on and now watching Netflixs. DD is asleep.
Bliss :)

Lulu1919 · 20/08/2021 20:42

Just had dinner...roasted chicken and nice salad plus two glasses of wine ...watching tv ..husband washing up ....might have some chocolate !!!

Durbeyfield · 20/08/2021 20:47

Ate scrambled egg on toast, drank a can of Orange Pellegrino and now DH and I are watching Wycliffe on ITV Hub. That looks quite boring in print, but I’ve had worse evenings. DH had a pizza. Forgot that bit.

lucysmam · 20/08/2021 20:48

I'm debating picking up a crochet project. Not sure I cba though.

I'm knackered after a day taming the front garden jungle & starting decluttering before moving.

The girls are loudly making a brew together, in the kitchen 🙄

Usual2usual · 20/08/2021 20:50

Just finished our first week back at school here so kids are shattered and in bed. Youngest dog (who is usually a total arse at this time of the evening) was out with his new dog walker today and is fast asleep on the rug. Going to sit down with some Schloer and watch 24 which we always thought looked crap but started watching a week ago and we are now hooked on (talk about late to the party!).

vampirethriller · 20/08/2021 20:51

Having a cup of tea while the bath fills, I've got an infected heel fissure and I'm hoping it'll help it. Toddler is in bed. Very exciting stuff!

MyMabel · 20/08/2021 20:52

Not long orders fish and chips for me and DD as DP working a bit later tonight. Currently sat on her bed waiting for her to fall asleep. Then I’ll probably hop into bed and raid Netflix for something I haven’t seen yet.

AllTheSunshine · 20/08/2021 20:53

Wishing I'd gone to the restaurant with the social group.
Struggling with the last episode of Baptiste. It's shite but there's nothing else on. Fiona Shaw is the only decent thing about it.

bloodywhitecat · 20/08/2021 20:54

Just had an Indian takeaway, am now cuddling the sleeping 12 week old who is recovering from C.diff while DH watches some crap on TV.

MysweetAudrina · 20/08/2021 20:56

I'm propped up in bed with my tablet eating a salted caramel magnum and dh is on the other side watching a film on his phone eating an almond magnum. Ddog is between us and mama cat is looking out the bedroom window. Had Lebanese takeaway earlier and expecting kids home from the streets shortly.
