Usual routine for us.

Papers get delivered by hand, so skim read them over coffee and croissants with freshly squeezed oj.

Shower, and then get dressed and take the dogs out around the woods we have.

Back for coffee and then sit in the orangery to read the read the papers in more detail.

Lunchtime pop in to the village to our local and have maybe a roast, or even a ploughmans if its too hot along with a couple of pints.

Back home, snooze for an hour or so, take the dogs out again and by that time dinner has been served.

Wash that down with a few glasses of vino, shower, get the staff rotas organised, make a cuppa then off to bed by 11.


Perfect.

Usually stay in bed until about 10am, try and catch up on sleep.

Maybe have a bit of breakfast though I’m not normally much of a breakfast eater.

Tomorrow I’ll be in the garage prepping my bike for a 3 day trackday in Spain in a couple of weeks.

Then a mate and I will go and find some food somewhere. Pub, maccies or whatever we fancy at the time.

Home, catch up on the bike racing and ufc that recorded the previous night or during the day.

Cling on to the last vestiges of sleep after the bottle of red wine last night, before my 3 year old wakes us up. Stumble downstairs in my boxers scratching my arse to watch Peppa pig.

My 7 year old turns up shortly after demanding toast and juice. I fetch it.

The Mrs sends me a text from bed saying come get the baby and bring me a cuppa while you're at it. I trudge back upstairs with a steaming mug for my beloved thinking where did it all go wrong, I wish I was reading The Times in an orangery like a smug git whilst I watched the gardener on the ride on.

Then I stumble back downstairs, baby in my arms, trying to avoid her spilling the coffee precariously perched on the arm of the sofa.

Then the two other daughters get up off the floor and come up fl and join us for a cuddle, and then all of a sudden there I am wrapped in three beautiful children and I think. Perfect.

Brucie bonus: I don't have to get up and walk a fking mutt in the pissing rain.

A quick shower then it's up with the lark.

I like to start the day with coffee, doughnuts, and a round of vigorous self-abuse.

Another shower to wash off the guilt, then outside to feed the Hippogriff.

After a refreshing shower there's time to write to the papers, then it's off to the pub.

The pub won't let me use their shower any more so I slip the Latvians in the car park a fiver and they give me a invigorating once-over with their jet wash.

Once inside, we'll have a roast local or maybe a pickled ploughman, depending on what the mantraps on the estate have yielded that week.

Back home by trolley-bus for a session in the stasis chamber - great for keeping the wrinkles at bay!

Showering off the stasis fluid takes a while, but after that I'll pop out again to muck out the Hippogriff, massage the Manticore and milk the Unicorns.

While I'm showering off the animal by-products the guards will slip my evening meal tray under the door of the dining suite.

I eat while drawing up the list of those who are to be executed on Monday morning.

After a shower I write to the papers once more, have a shower and retire to the bedroom wing to scream until I pass out.

Another perfect day.

Just about as true as the OP.

I’ve got three little girls, I’m up with the first one at half six ish to go downstairs and have breakfast, normally followed by the other older ones in short order. Breakfast is pancakes because it’s the weekend and a treat I do, then collapse on the couch whilst the other half rests, like you said I had all three on the couch this morning enjoying a cuddle while I can.

Get up at 14:30. Shower. Scrambled eggs on toast. Orange juice and coffee. Go for a walk. Eat evening meal at about 22:30. Mess around on the PC reading books until 03:00. Go to bed happy.

Up this early as the wife has informed we and the rest of the hamlet have no power.

Been there, done that.

Thankfully not anymore

Brucie Bonus: We don't have to get up to deal with whining kids anymore, and it doesn't rain every day!

Woot!

I wake up before my wife so, like now, catch up on News, PH, etc on my mobile in bed until I think the time is reasonable to get up, have a shower and then feed the dog.

I then have a light breakfast, just an energy bar, yoghurt and a can of Red Bull Sugar-free in lieu of coffee which I'm not a fan of.

Then off out on my mountain bike for a 60 - 80km off-road ride, might join my local Club ride if it is on.

Return home, shower, have lunch - tuna salad, sandwich or something. Then go for a swim - pool is warm 8 months of the year.

Relax by the pool, or go for a short hike with my wife along the coast.

In the evening, go to the local Wine Bar for tapas and a couple of drinks and meet friends.

Then, if not too late, an episode of something on Netflix before shower and bed.

Have a 'lie in' until 7 ish.

Sort breakfast.

Try not to go insane at the kids' moaning.

Go play rugby.

BBQ at a friend's this afternoon.

Get ready for work again Monday. Sigh.
