A weekend of snuggles

I now have Me Time. I should be happy. Sadly this means that flickums has had to return home.

We had a lot of fun though. Right from meeting her at the station and being squished to death by hugs until the tearful goodbye.

So after a slight delay caused by my leaving the interior light on, we set off and saw Brighton, went on the pier, wandered through the North Lanes, and Pavilion gardens, had a greasy meal at Kensingtons (actually I just had a cuppa, but Flick had a hefty meal), and went up on the Brighton Wheel to see views of Brighton, with commentary by Steve Coogan.

After that I took Flick on a drive to Devil's Dyke (it's funny because it has "Devil" in the name). Got to take the roof down, so that was fun. Loitered at the Dyke admiring the view.

Since I now have Netflix, we watched an episode of Daredevil.

Flick demonstrated her mad bread making skillz. I showed off my mad Toad in the hole making skillz and my roast spud abilities. Then introduced Flick to the wonder that is Pavlova and, apparently, to Strawberries and Raspberries. Flick now accepts that egg whites do have a use in society.

Went to the sci-fi pub quiz. Flick knew a regular there and he had a mate so that was a team of 4. Round one was Orphan Black. I was the only person on the team that had actually seen the show. After the scores were announced it turned out I was the only person in the pub who had. In the end though, we came second. General Nerdage was unusually hard.

Final day involved lots of snuggling, a stroll to the green where a small fayre was happening, and a meander to the beach. Brother, his gf and daughter were at the fayre. Had a go at the shooting gallery. Flick declared herself to have too many toys so I won a teddy for my niece instead. Flick was too busy admiring other aspects to pay attention to my shooting skill.

Also there has been much snuggling!

I think it's been a successful weekend. Just wish it was longer.
