August bank holiday weekend plans and chatter

Hi all!
I wondered what you all had planned for this weekend? Are you going anywhere nice?
If not, feel free to keep me company! I will be here most of this weekend and then on Monday I have to finish my university dissertation so I will no longer be a student
wooohooo!!
Inspire me with your activities!!

I tend to stay home at bank holidays due to the busy traffic and crowds and also my boyfriend has gone away yo Scotland on a motorbike tour so just me and my son this weekend
I want to finish the first series of prison break and also will be watching the grand prix (Im a bit of a fan)
Take away tonight then will make some brownies tomorrow
Have a lovely weekend
I watched Prison Break the first time round, Wentworth Miller is great in it. I'm sure my OH will be watching the F1 when he gets in too
Have a nice time!

I hope everyone enjoys the F1. I think it’s weird, I am really into cars and driving myself but watching the F1 (or any car racing) doesn’t interest me!
Critical Disability Studies sounds really intriguing @Cher_Scope! I've never heard of it before, what sort of things have you learned from it?

@Grinchy Good luck to your son too. I wonder if he will be on stage or screen in the future?!
@Ami2301 Ahhh exciting times, when are you due again? I can't wait to hear more about your bump's arrival! As to what I've learned - lots! This is a link to the MA course I did at Leeds and my modules covered disability research, politics, social policy and disability theory. I feel better placed to help other disabled people achieve equality now than before
What is everyone else up to this Sunday? I'm just going to make a coffee before responding to some more posts and I have a cat staring at me through the front window wanting to be let inside!

Me, on the other hand, I can't stop napping! I think there will be 2 more growth scans and we are having a 4d scan in a couple of weeks 😁 can't wait to see her little face! 🥰
You might want to let the cat in 😂

Frank the cat is now inside and sat next to me, dribbling on my new note pad

You’re welcome😁
I’m glad the squirrel photos are helping 🐿
I still can’t believe how cheeky the hazelnut thief is🤣
I hang the bag on the fence so I don’t have to carry it and she just decided to help herself🤣🤣
@RAwarrior The hazelnut thief! Hehe. These squirrels are very lucky to have you spoiling them!

Thank you very much 😁
what could I possibly have done, walk out? Not likely.
When I had my big toe and next one amputated this was before I had my leg amputated, I had both surgery's under local aneasthetic so awake throughout, not as bad as you may think
However on leaving the theatre after they had left my toe on the table so I cold see it as I was wheeled out, thanking god they didnt do this with my leg
I'm so sorry they had to do any of that at all. Very sad.
