“No Time, Never Got a Thing to Wear”

Uncategorized

Hi, While we’re not out of winter just yet, the lighter mornings are enjoyable. A touch bracing perhaps, but it’s light, yay! Lots of folk seems to be enjoying the brighter evenings, but personally, I like it dark around 6ish. I dunno, for me at least, there’s something a little bit magical about the night. Sure, summer’s fun, but dark night holds something else that a warm summer evening doesn’t. Still, that’s one of the good things about living in a temperate climate, we have seasons. Okay, a lot of rain, but seasons none-the-less. 🙂 It was Chams the other night and although we had nothing special planned it turned out to be a packed evening. A few new faces […]

“Do you remember the good old days,
Before the ghost town?”

Hey, I trust all is well with you and yours, yes? It’s been a bit of a quiet week so far. Well, work has been busier than usual, but then I guess that is everyone getting away from the Christmas holiday feelings and getting back into the swing of it. Well, it is nearly February 🙂 Home-wise, everyone is well and truly on the mend. There is that old line “so long ‘as you’ve got yer ‘elf (health)“. Like a lot of well worn and well loved phrases, it’s true. After a dose of a bad cold, it’s good to be able to get up in the morning and feel ready to face the world. Okay, that’s not strictly true, […]

“Get up, come on get down with the sickness”

Uncategorized

Hi, How’s things? Seems I’ve been at home more than I’ve been at work week. Mind you, is that really a bad thing? 🙂 Little Miss wasn’t 100%, so I was house husband / caring dad for a few days. It was rather nice, even if she’s now spread the love. Ah well. 🙂 That probably explains why I went to Chams in bloke mode. Funny, I had been looking forward to going and I’d had a few thoughts on outfits. Yet, when push came to shove, I’d sort of lost interest. That’s one the great things about going out regularly; the fact that I know there will be other times. Besides, I’ve got some more leave to take before […]

“Pack up your troubles,
Get your old grin back.”

Howdy, Back on to the grindstone eh? Ahh, that first week back at work. While it was good to catch with workmates, I can’t say I relished the early mornings. Well, I say early, but to me, any time before 10am I class as early. Too much of a night owl I guess. Hopefully your return to work – maybe it was earlier? – hasn’t been too fraught. I think I’m getting back into the swing of things. The collection of Xmas choccies is slowly disappearing, clearly that’s not helping the extra curves (Ed: she means fat) I seem to have developed. If my backside gets any bigger, I won’t need the padding at this rate 😉 Sadly, the weight […]
