The weekend so far

I realy need to start coming up with imaginative subjects. Not least so I can find posts when searching through comment email. Unless anyone knows of any decent email indexing and searching solutions for Linux?

A friend of my two housemates that I vaguely knew in halls of residence at uni has been over for the weekend. I decided to cook dinner. I roasted veg for the first time which may not sound like much but I've only ever used the hob for cooking, so it was quite an achievement.

Later in the evening I went to jillys with softfruit. It was a surpriseing quiet night for a Friday, but I did manage to see neuromantix (welcome to my flist :-)), msbhayvin, db85 and Jay.

Saturday I was going to go flying for my first lesson after a 10 year hiatus, but the poor weather prevented it. Had 2 hours of ground school instead. Watched QL all evening and made it through to the final episode.

Today I have another booking for a lesson, but having just checked the weather I don't think it'll happen.

No plans afterwards, though maybe I should tidy my room and do some laundry, as the place is a sty.

GRRR

My mobile seems to have forgotten the entries where the names start with letters between C and O. If your own name or your LiveJournal name (I have people under LiveJournal names to make distinction easier) starts with a letter in that range then please can you let me know contact details as a reply? (Or link to one such post?)
