THE KIDS are through jumping all over me long before the alarm goes off…not gonna sleep in this morning!

After breakfast I hit the studio to do some prep for tomorrow’s (Sunday) radio show and Maggi and Joel drop off their wee dog Rosie for Freya and Aaron to look after.

Margaret and the kids go a walk with the dog and I carry on with some work in the studio. When Maggi and Joel come back we all have a coffee and a catch up then we take the kids swimming. Been a while since we’ve been – Margaret rented our memberships last week. Good to be back albeit a bit busy. It is a Saturday I guess.

Catriona and Will come for the kids just after 6pm and we chat for a while.

I get a pork butt out the fridge and say some prep with my ‘Memphis dust’ rub ready for the smoker tomorrow.

Then back to the studio to do a little more work then fire up some charcoal for it grill – Margaret’s marinaded some chicken with some kinda weird mustard and mayo stuff…it turns out great!
