Describe to me your perfect day

[painterman32]

Mine would be to see England play (and win) a one day test cricket match against the West Indies in Bridgetown Barbados, then to fly home on Prince Abdullah's private jet to a barbecue at the farm or on the beach with all my family

I`d settle for Barbados without the cricket! And I wouldn`t bother flying home at all :-)

[painterman32]

I've not long come back from three weeks there, staying with friends - sheer bliss!

I'd settle for a day at the river in Henley in the sunshine with the bf and no worries to concern ourselves with.

Maybe Scarlett Johanssenn and a beach somewhere.

I love Barbados. I was there in Feb and will probably go again in September. One time when I went I sat amongst that Windies cricket team on the aircraft. They were supercool dudes with their black suits and wrap around sunglasses. Did you get good weather? They said it was going to be a busy hurricane season this year.

We had a few overcast dull days, and when we went to the east side of the island the wind can be bracing because of the trade winds, but we were mostly around Bridgetown/Neils/Sweet Vale where it was just perfect, not too hot not too windy

A day snowboarding somewhere really amazing with a load of mates, back for a meal with my lass, a perfectly cooked fillet steak followed by a banoffee pie, then a few bottles of crabbies in the jacuzzi before retiring for the evening and telling you no more!!

wasnt this asked yesterday? or am i going mad?

[painterman32]

pa___ul3 - Have you tried Davos is Switzerland? My son reckons it hard to beat for freeriding - it's got a terrain park and two halpipes too....and I didn't understand a word of that, it's just what he told me!!

diving into a huge cherry pie

Watching U2 at a festival & having a picnic hamper full of goodies & wine to eat!

Just to have a day to myself where I can do what I want when I want. Sounds selfish but my Husband has Dementia and I am his sole carer. Usually can cope but finding it hard today. Thanks for that, feeling a little better for getting that off my chest

[Quassia]

barb .. Is there no respite out there available to you?

[pa___ul3]

I've never tried Davos, no, but I'll certainly bear that in mind for my next trip!

[kerriesmum]

My perfect day would consist of anywhere as a setting, so long as my son and daughter were not arguing .

[rowanwitch]

a days guided birdwatching with Martin Hughes Games, Bill Oddie and Bill Bailey... with mega good binoculars and scope... even if we didn't see any rarities what a laugh and a chance to learn loads

[Quassia]

barb ... As much as you love your husband, you sound like you could do with some 'you' time. Is there really no organisation or friends that could help you?

[sadielady]

He does go to his Group on Monday and Thursday, they always tell me to go home and relax but I seem to spend time rushing around doing things I cant do when he is at home. Usually he is very quiet but every so often he "blows his top" and today was one of them. I am feeling tired, think that is why today Im not coping. Thank you for your concern Quassia x

[Quassia]

barb ... you need some help there! If you can afford it, pay someone you can trust to come in to your home to do the chores & may be you can get out yourself? I'm exasperated for you!

[sadielady]

Quassia Bless you, I am fine realy, just having a bad day. This post came up at a low time for me, it was good to get things off my chest. Sorry if I put a downer on your post painterman32. I havent been to well myself for a few weeks so obviously that hasnt helped. Husband has been asleep for a couple of hours and has just woken, alot better now in his mental state. Physically he is very well, its just his poor old brain that doesnt work properly any more. It is a terrible disease. Thank you again for your concern x
