“You may ask yourself, ‘Well, how did I get here?'”

Uncategorized

Hey folks, I am glad it’s the weekend – and a long weekend at that. Let’s hear it for bank holidays. 🙂 If there’s one word that could sum up this week, it would be: frantic (Ed: “like Harrison Ford I’m frantic”? ;-P ). One of those weeks were the work levels increase steady and surely until you’ve got more plates spinning than… umm.. someone who spins a lot of plates for a living. Still, it could be worse, I could be bored and that’s awful 😉 So work is building up (again), although I did get some feedback on the job I didn’t get. A few things to think about. Perhaps ironically, improving my communication skills. It seems I’ve got […]

“There’s a better life and you dream about it, don’t you”

Uncategorized

Hi, I think it was around Tuesday that I drove by a lorry and the large advert on the side, kick started my brain. Sadly, whatever witty and erudite post I had planned, fell foul to memory failure and a busy week. Ho hum. I suppose that’s a bit like the dog ate my homework. I do find the lapses of memory frustrating and no doubt that’s one of the reasons humanity invented writing. 🙂 Not much on the trans front his week, so if that’s your main reason for visiting, move along as there’s nothing to see here. 😉 Other stuff, health and family are fine. Work is not so good, or more accurately, work was okay. There I was […]

“It’s The End Of The World As We Know It
(And I Feel Fine)”

Uncategorized

Hi everyone out there in t’interweb land,  Argh, brain freeze. 🙂 Where to start? Well, it’s been a pretty good week, all things considered. The weather’s been good, the nippers have kept out of trouble, the Ever Lovely Mrs Jones hasn’t been over-worked and apart from a slight issue with the hound, all is good. Oh, and it’ll be about a week or so, since I reduced the anti-miserabalist tablets and dare I say (Ed: Dare! Dare!) that so far so good. All in all, it’s been rather quiet and relaxing. So there’s not really a lot to report! 😉 Given that I’d not been shopping for sometime, I decided to invest in some rather nice leopard print peep-toe heels. A […]

“Would you have liked a present too?”

Uncategorized

Hey all, It’s a well worn phrase around this here blog, but this week really has gone by in a flash. I *think* I can remember Tuesday starting and suddenly, it’s Friday night. I’m sure it won’t be long in that I’ll blink and Wee Man will be visiting with his grandchildren. 🙂 It was the Ever Lovely Mrs Jones’ birthday just the other day and that, of course, meant shopping for pressies. Funny, but I do tend to worry a little when shopping for others. Yes, I do buy my nearest & dearest a fair bit, but it’s not a scatter gun approach. There is a method to the proverbial madness: keep an eye on what they’re using, listening […]
