In no particular order:
Riding my bike, going pillion on a GSXR750, eating ice cream, playing with water bombs, making burgers, getting a vajazzle; hanging out in Saaaarrfend on Sea at the Shakedown, bike service, fake tanning my ultra white legs, making sheep, pig and duck noises, buying the biggest water pistol I can find, drinking rose, taking a machete to a 5' cactus, weighing my pussy (as I think he's getting fat).
(One of these is a lie)

Friday, working on Sylvie the SV because she has her MOT on Tuesday and I want the front brakes sorted out!
Saturday, Working.
Sunday, working on the Radio station.
Monday, working. Disabled people don't get a Bank Holiday off from poohing themselves, needing care or blowing great green snot bubbles. I will be up to my elbows in human excrement. Joyous...

I humbly retract the above statements.
I'm glad I'll still be going to work tomorrow.
I have just seen on the news that a plane has crashed in a fireball just a few hundred yards away from my business. :shock:

A bit late to the party but, well I didn't really have plans, but seem to have developed some.
Friday - got the SV washed, gave it its first oil/filter/sparkplugs change in over 3 years. Got started on my super-secret mini-project, started a batch of Turbo-Ginger Beer. Put the Zed on the Optimate with fingers crossed that the battery isn't dead.
Saturday - off to the vets to get the cats special cat food, get some more bits for the super-secret mini project and do some more on it, do some packing/sorting/chucking out of stuff in prep for a house move. Check if the Zed has got a live battery.
Sunday - More tidying/packing/sorting and woking on the super-secret mini-project.
Monday - Playtime, off to The Ace, then to Saarfend, taking some of the Turbo-Ginger Beer for taste testing purposes, unveil the super-secret mini-project to the world.
Oh and probably fit some work-related stuff in there too.
Oh and Bananananana Man (I always forget how to stop spelling that word) hope the impact doesnt have too much of an impact on your business.

Pretty much the same as me. I've done nothing all weekend and starting to get pretty fed up. Can't use the bike as I'm still waiting on bits from the powdercoaters. :(

My plans changed slightly - thanks to Soulkiss's turbo charged ginger beer we had a rather sticky wet t-shirt contest in Supervox's garden. Tasted nice though!
Mine was a success however, we didnt make it to Cheddar and rode round the burning Brecons instead.
So, lordD, whom am i cooking for?

Don't I get to win for supplying the booby-wetting agent in the form of my super-fizzy Turbo Gingerbeer - from ingredients to soaking t-shirts in under 60 hours?
It was so fizzy that when Supervox just took the lid off it was like one of those you-tube videos of dropping Mentos in Coke, and after it had finished, there was less than half in the bottle.
What was left was tasted by most people and deemed to be good, so I shall have to find a way of brewing some up for the AR (I have ideas already :p)
Oh and the outcome of the super-secret mini-project is here (http://forums.sv650.org/showpost.php?p=2526506&postcount=685)
Oh and as a further example of being awesome, if I win I will donate my prize to some homeless guy that needs the feedig more than I do - lol

A pretty crappy, busy weekend in work (apart from Sunday), brought to a very unfortunate conclusion by this:

You were involved because of your job right?

While I wasn't actually there at the scene (I'm office based), I was there when the call came into the control room and everyone immediately sprang to action (my shift ended 15 minutes later). I've been reading the log entries of the incident itself and it's not pleasant. Being hit by a train does bad things to the human body, and bad things to the mind of the driver. :(
