Gosh

Well that went well, with Paul. We pottered about, found Glynabbey(1) where I am going in't future, had lunch in a Café, it was just OKish

(1) Eventually, we wandered about but found it in the end, I can't remember from being there before

And at 'em

So I got up s'morning, now waiting for Small Paul to start his work as a helper/friend for me. Which should be in about an hour...

Digicam

And my camera seemed to develop an out of focus bit slightly to the right of middle, then this evening I dug out a "cleaner" and just cleaned the ens. There is not enuf light to take a comparison pic this evening but it does seem much better already.

And now it's daylight it seems to have worked a bit, I did it again, wait and see now

Girly

Then Freya came down to be very lovely etc

Busy Later

So we have a "team meeting" where they learn about me, then my beautiful daughter is coming.

And good lord, for the first half of their meeting they talked amongst themselves but I was involved in the second half, talking about what I want to do tomorrow with Paul etc. Gosh I am gonna be busy trying to have a life again

Out To Play

And Jackie has permission to take me to the new folk club in Burryport tonight

AND wow, it was excellent, I will be back in a fortnight

'Ello Dere

And I was in bed s'morning, thought "I am not gonna be able to drop off again" so got up, was reading the first email from Ixion before breakfast when there was a knock at the door. It was the man who came to replace all the plastic bits on my 'chair. Gosh I feel about 8 ft off the ground, it is no longer so saggy the bit I sit on :-)

FTP crisis

And tonight FTP stopped working, it said "Cannot" and didn't work. I tried again, still nowt. I restarted my PC, nowt. I read HELP, I thought nowt has changed, panic. I tried a few more times, after 15 mins etc, still nowt. About an hour and a half later I tried again and it started working

Spectators

And just now I looked at my BLOG's report and good lord, where in the world are my spectators?

Piss

And I was outside talking to a chap this evening, while we spoke a client from up the road came down in his powered wheelchair and said to him "Excuse me, can you help me go to the loo", he can't do even that by himself

My Birthday

First of all I saw my parents they came here then took me to Morrisons to finish this weeks shopping as I think my new printer might be delivered tomorrow and I want to be in for that not out at the shops. Then we came back here for lunch, I had a sandwich and loadsa leftover salad from last night. Then we went out to the National Botanical Garden Of Wales which I was much iller last time we visited, perhaps 6 months ago. But good lord it was impressive, when I am more mobile I hope to be back often

obAND I have got some chocolate birthday cake made by my big sisters eldest child, wow it is nice

Where did it go?

Happy Birthday To Me. 42 today, hoo-flippin'-ray. I was in my mid 30's, had a disaster now how old am I?

Visitors

Then my parents came over. Hoo-flippin'-ray. We had a cuppa and a chat then we headed off to the seaside to have a look at the beautiful women^h^h^h^h^hview and had lunch outside a café where they make your sandwiches from scratch, yes, it was lovely.
Then tonight we had a pizza and various salads that they prepared here, and did the washing up afterwards.
THEN we went out to Tesco where I got more Tofu with bits in that they don't sell in Morrisons &c

But tomorrow is a date closer to the day I died, 30th April 2003

They Are Away

But all of Ixion is away oop North ATM so I have got almost no email to read today. But as my parents have come over to celebrate me being still alive for my 42nd birthday tomorrow at least I have got some "entertainment"

Early To Bed

And I woke up at 7.15 s'morning with no chance of going back to sleep, it was much too sunny in my bedroom. I may have to close the curtains tonight, I usually leave then open as no-one can look in

Dinner

And because I had eaten a big lunch I needed a small dinner so it was actually to my benefit as I had far too much salad in bags to last me 'til Monday so for dinner tonight I just had a big salad.

Printer

And I started scanning a book for the next door neighbour last night, scanned 39 pages then it died, wouldn't print or scan in the end. So I went online 3 or 4 times and in the end bought a printer/scanner from PC world, then I had a phone conversation with someone who sold me sum inks, which cost nearly as much as the printer

Out To Lunch

And a MOS came and saw me s'morning and said "We are taking "him" shopping in Carmarthen, wanna come wander about while we shop then have lunch?" I said yes, had a thoroughly enjoyable wander with a woman, bought summat in a Charity Shop, went had a lovely lunch, went and bought an enormous bottle of chille sause for a quid then came back.

And after visiting town for so long I didn't need a pee even when we came back

Later In The Morning

Ooh, feels strange. Yes, I went to my new workplace yesterday and I felt so rough afterwards that I didn't go to Tai Chi but by next week I have "someone" with me 4 days and a couple of nights. This sitting on my arse all day every day seems to be at an end. Which is obviously good but scary

Morning

'Ello there, calmer day.......
