I’m not quite sure why I wanted to record this. Perhaps it’s to assuage some of my guilt at not being in the peoples’ vote/anti-brexit march yesterday. Anyway, this has been a relaxing weekend so far.

My reward for all of this is nut roast with roasted potatoes, onions, sprouts and carrots. You have been warned!

Saturday morning

• Spinning at LifesCycle. We cheated slightly by travelling by bus, due to the rain. I usually prefer to cycle there and back, as warm-up and cool-down from the lovely madness. (Elly and I are on the front-left bikes of that Facebook video.)

Saturday afternoon

• much-needed coffee and lunch
• catching up with personal and family finances, sadly neglected for a couple of weeks due to work-pressures
• washing our manky spinning gear. That’s the only downside!
• tidying my desk area after weeks of needing to let rubbish build up

Saturday evening

• avoiding watching Strictly Come Dancing
• writing a presentation on a project I’m about to finish, so I can demonstrate the outcomes to a high-powered audience. (I think I should not say what the project is just now, but I will blow my own trumpet as hard as I can when the work goes live.)

Sunday morning

• proofreading and commenting on a tender written by my ever-wonderful better half.
• much-needed coffee and lunch

Sunday afternoon

• New Town & Broughton community council website.
• Leith Harbour & Broughton community council website.
• Leith Central community council website.
• £eithChooses social media
