The weekend of the 16th is Star Trek weekend on Channel 4. So AIBU to want to lock myself in the bedroom with plenty of beer and takeaway menus (with a telly of course)
All the 10 movies are being shown and this will be a real Trekkie feast

I dont ask for much

YANBU - everyone needs a weekend off once in a while.

really, it depends on how you normally split all the daily/weekly chores. so long as it works out reasonably even, no problem. BUT do fumigate the room after - a weekend watching tv & eating take-away = smelly room.

You only need half the weekend off, only the even numbered films are any good...

thanks for the warning! Grin

Jareth,

You've just reminded me about one of my favorite films ever...

Labyrinth is awesome.

"Ludo friend!"

Cyborg,
DW gets a weekend off too - sorted (BTW, reminds me, I'm owed approximately 27 days off now, need to speak to DH about that... Hmm)

DH is also a trekkie and a (an?) SF fan, in fact he is currently watching "Dr Who - The Five Doctors" (25th Anniversary Edition) while I am on MN - perfect for both of us! Grin

Your DH sounds like a nice chap, if I was a woman he would ring my bell

what is dw's attitude? would she like to be there with you?

if so, i'm afraid you may have to record them all & watch one each eve once the kids are in bed.
