It's The Weekend

Yeah! It is the weekend. for most fifty year old men I guess that means some time down the pub, working in the shed or going down the allotment. If could involve a trip to a sporting event, time with a partner a well earned rest. I'm taking three children under 5 to the photographers. It is a one hour drive, on a hot sunny day leaving early for a 10 am sitting. I know it will be a nightmare of not sitting still, tears and those words so familiar "I'm tired" and "I'm hungry." Becca will get cross driven by the shame she feels for our inevitably badly behaved children. Strangely it will be all my fault despite having nothing to do with booking the event, other than paying for it and being the father of the children in question.
Happy Weekend to you all.

SO...

I am 50, it was my birthday on May 7th 2009 and I have reached that milestone. Now what? Is it 50 and beyond or is it 50 and beyond me? I guess the latter because...

I have more drive at 50 than most of the 20 year olds who work for me.

I know more about computers than anyone in my office yet they all treat me like I listen to a wireless and don't know an wii from a wee or a twit from a tweet.

I also seem to have a capacity for detail over and above almost anyone under 35. This makes me think they are a pain in the arse and makes them think I am an old fart. The fact is they don't seem to care, I do and I am, of course, right.
