Weekend Plans

Worked all weekend. Am however looking forward to a live gig tomorrow - the return of Japan's mighty psychedelic wizards Acid Mothers Temple. Rtn to London on Thursday for a few days. Been a while!
 
Overcast skies aside, it sounds like a great time to be Norwegian. The only winners out of the energy crisis...
Not necessarily. There are power lines from Norway to many other countries. The result is that electricity is just as expensive in Norway as in the UK, Germany etc.

The only exception is on the north-west coast (where I live) and up to a degree up north. This is because there are no power lines between the north-west and abroad and also the rest of Norway. The north-west is more or less an isolated and independent market, there are enough hydroelectric power plants, and the prices are still reasonable. The current price in the north-west is 0,90 NOK/kwh. The current price in the south-east is 4,52 NOK/kwh. That's five times as much.

No, I don't want a power line between the north-west and the rest of Norway/Europe. ;)
 
Been in Turkey since the weekend, nice resort on the peninsula off Fethiye. Weather is good, food and drink are decent. Added bonus is it a large resort, with a few bars playing dance music.

Been out n about, looked around the town/food markets and back streets (always more interesting and 'real') visited some beaches and spent a few hours on an amazing park with our 4 year old.

In negotiations with the boss about a 10mile walk over the hills to the blue lagoon and Oulez Denez

You’ve taken Bruce Springsteen with you?
 
Thursday is sort of weekend.
Heading over to this tomorrow eve with her indoors. Hoping we can get a seat as she still can’t stand for long periods. Greg’s on 9-11 and Jason beforehand.
 
Promising weekend ahead with Fantastic Man & Lydia Vilas playing around the corner at a small venue in Antwerp. First club night since I got back from the island, planning to make this one count
 
IF i make it (ADE hangover strikes hard...) i'm travelling to Barcelona for Elrow Horroween...
But i'll have to feel a bit better than I do now or i need to change my flights to another weekend.
 
long weekend ahead!

friday - hike early morning, then a bit of office still (we haven't stopped yet at pacha HQ!). and then finally dinner at o galego in sta E before they close for winter. it's one of my fave places, but we simply haven't made it yet this summer.

saturday - TWO hikes, but both with friends (one of them being a forumer) and then another forumer arrives from far away for a few days on the island who will stay at ours. night to be spent between akasha (tim green) and chinois.

sunday - sleep in the morning, then a nice paella for late lunch done by the mrs to officially say goodbye to the summer.

monday - two hikes! no halloween parties for me this year.

tuesday - another hike (bank holiday)

wednesday - back to work!
 
Friday - busy work day until 20.00
Saturday - fly EDI - BCN - IBZ. Dump bags in apartment, Locals Only, Paradise Lost, Pikes until kicking out (catch up with the Bennetts)
Sunday - imagine a slow start then Croissant Show, visit The Standard, an evening staying local in Ibiza Town (might all change dramatically lol)
Monday - Pikes Halloween
Tuesday- look like an actual corpse then home late
Wednesday - regret my life choices as I'm straight back to work at 0800
 
Standard weekend here...Arsenal and pizza with my boy, possibly both of them, tomorrow, sleepover in the cloud, then guitar lessons Saturday morning.

Saturday afternoon, I've got a cup game, which I'm hoping doesn't go to extra time, as I've also got a Vets cup game on Sunday. I'll have dropped the kids to my folks before that, pick them after and keep them busy for the day.
 
My weekend looks a bit like this:
Tomorrow evening - work
Saturday - more dissertation write up
Sunday - work, possibly go and visit my parents depending on what time they get home from their cruise.

Where have the fun times of Ibiza gone 😫
