I always confuse Sal with 'this weekend' - my thinking is the current one / just passed but she thinks the one yet to arrive, which to my mind is the next weekend. A scientific straw pub poll suggests a 50/50 split opinion.
Really looking forward to see the Dog after the complete Woolfy magic , a remarkable & commendable resto of a CI conversion ...
... but also selfishly with additional funds in place, our Hunny's next in the queue

It's simple Paul, as of today, this weekend is the one coming. Next weekend is the one at the end of next week. Also, in case you're wondering, a week begins on a Monday (not Sunday as some think) and the weekend consists of Saturday and Sunday only - if there's a Friday and/or Monday involved as well it becomes a long weekend. Friday is not part of the weekend, it's merely the end of the week prior to the weekend starting. Also, contrary to what many think, the millenium started on 1.1.2001 and not 1.1.2000.
I hope that's clear?
Spare a Commer Guv?
If I told you I was a pathological liar, would you believe me?
On the radio they play so-and-so's 'brand new' single, which they've been playing for over a month! The first week I can accept calling it 'brand new', from then on it should be the 'latest' single.
Maybe I'm just a miserable old Git!

Thanks Baz for your most thorough and informative response and also for clarifying my understanding of this/next weekend (actually, my alternative theory fell down when asked 'So when was last weekend ...')
