Keen to hear any novel ideas (or just the humdrum of your weekend).

Planning on watching Raiders of the Lost Ark and / or Star Trek Voyager with the 10 year old myself. Going on a decent hike and playground with the gang also in the mix.

The usual sports stuff.

Bicycle, bicycle, bicycle. If it rains, some movie, I have a new microwave popcorn popper to try out. Probably Minecraft also.

Nice. That sounds like a good one. Enjoy. :)

edit: Just to temper your expectations, I found those microwave poppers middling at best.

However I would like to introduce you to the greatest improvement in my popcorn experience since I was born: Flavacol. Just a sprinkle mind you. Instant cinema popcorn.

Friend of mine bought it for me as a gift. Incredible gear.

I have an old popper that's made of unknown plastic, we recently burnt it, so I thought to buy a glass one. In the same order was flavacol.

Oh now you're poppin'. Less is more with the flavacol. As my father used to say "You can always have more, but you can't have less". He was talking about alcohol, but it applies here too. :D

it is honestly a game changer though. Enjoy!
