I'm on my own

[dellzeqq]

...for the first time in sixteen years. Her Nibs is off to New York for a week, which she's done many a time before, but, hitherto, The Kid has been here when she's gone. This time the little'un is in Dublin.

So............brown ale in the fridge and Scalextric in the dining room? Take the Brommie apart for a deep clean in the kitchen? Late night alleycat racing on the Embankment? Suggestions please........

Spend the week in just your underpants.

Spend the week in just your underpants.

Or au naturel.

 

[postman]

Or just wear armwarmers.

Well I guess a bloke might suggest otherwise, but I know what I miss most in my household: Peace and quiet!
So, my suggestion is get provisions (whatever that traslates to the individual) put your feet on the coffee table and enjoy!!!

Have a house party and advertise it on Facebook.

 

[defy-one]

Have a bike party and advertise it on here! ...... Or get your money out and spend £500 on a high class hooker

The beer's already in, get some rock 'n' roll on, nice and loud, and you're good to go!

Spend the week in just your underpants.

And I'm sure Vernon meant that you're allowed to change them when required, although I stand to be corrected.

 

[Drago]

You got a week to sell the house and fake your own death

I was thinking that too. I don't think I could cope with so little time to myself, but I am at the other extreme. Before I got ill, I would sometimes go a week or more at a time without seeing anybody that I knew or speaking to anybody apart from shop workers.

My suggestion is a period of quiet contemplation. You clearly spend a lot of time talking to people and doing things, so why not take this rare opportunity to say nothing and do nothing! Ignore the phone(s), turn off the radio and tv and just ... relax.

Is your house ridable ?
You could host the first DZ-Manor Indoor Bicycle Criterium

 

[jefmcg]

Spend some time in Cycle Chat! You could really up your profile here. Let's see, in the last week you only posted ....<open search page> oh, 188 articles.

Maybe you could go for a long walk.

Could always get into mischief, post about Coffee in the Tea thread or start a Helmet Debate... then just sit back and watch the argument go on (trousers optional).

How about undertaking a week of intense tuition/practice at something her Nibs and the Kid have no idea about. Then on their return spring a little surprise?

Learn to speak a little Italian or Chinese, then go out for a meal and do all the talking....

Pick up a musical instrument you've never touched, then once the week is up go busking...

Loads of possibilities.
