Weekend? What weekend?

I can't wait for a day when I can just pootle around doing absolutely nothing...but it looks like December is going to be the earliest that that's going to happen. London this weekend, for a wedding on Saturday (great fun, possibly the best one I've ever been to), and the Archery Test Event for 2012 at Lords' Cricket Ground.

We only had tickets to the Ladies Individual Finals, since that was the only day we could do and fancied the lie-in (hence missing the knock-outs). Sadly, our one English hopeful following the seeding round, Alison Williamson, got knocked out at the 1/32s. Still, it was a great experience, despite the dire commentating (seriously, get someone who can pronounce the archers' names for a start, and not keep blaming the wind for every arrow not in the red or gold).

On the whole, though, the event ran so smoothly that it bodes pretty well for next year. And having never been to Lords' before, that was a pretty cool thing to tick off the list!
