GF came over friday during the day while I was still working from home.
Chilled and watched F1 FP1 on my laptop because Loadshedding.
got dinner and brought it home fed the wife and GF.
snuggled on the couch in the rain watching netflix.
watched Quali while wife and GF worked.
went to bed while wife worked and GF helped with editing.
saturday morning made them breakdfast, watched 3 episodes of a show we all watch together on netflix.
GF left at 12 to have her nails done.
wife and I went out to play pokemon go around 3.

around 5ish we left for a friends place.
helped build a PC after loadhsedding killed his previous PC.
Borked kettle cord killed the new PSU and I think fried the new motherboard.
managed to get the old motherboard and the old PSU working again after fiddling wiht the modular PSU. I thinik just some of the ports there died.
that only finished at 2am. so went to bed. did take a break to watch the sprint race though.
left there at around7am came home and slept away the day watched the race and went to bed.
beautifully lazy weekend to restore the mind

It is a pity that your friend's new system went up in smoke so quickly.
yeah the kettle cord melted inside due to a power surge.
we didnt think to check the cord so the new PSU and I think his new bord all went poof wiht a puff of smoke as soon as we turned it on

weekend wasted thanks to work standby calls. quite annoying.
but other than that we just cleaned the house. GF was working this weekend and wife was off on Saturday so at least I had some quality time with my best friend on Saturday.

Went to Abu Dhabi to watch John Legend
most have been super busy because of the race there this weekend. I did see a South african flag above the pits during the post race interviews

Didn't know they made an EV. More choices coming is great. Not much choice here yet though.

They're taking the fight to the bigger manufacturers, that's for sure. The top spec trophy is like £10k or more cheaper than similarly specced rivals. In fact the top spec is cheaper than the bottom spec of the VW offering.

And next year they'll launch a 350kw version, 0-100 in under 4 seconds.

I bought 2 32" TV's on a black Friday special to use as second screens when working from home.
bought 2 pairs of headphones also on a special for me and the wife.
went to a freinds place on saturday, chatted about music until the early hours, then came home and did nothing. while the wife worked.
very chilled weekend.

considered going on the Toy run but wasn't feeling it on Sunday morning
