Open links

For some reason my PC had stopped opening links in a browser when I clicked them, so I had to copy and paste links into Firefox. So I was trying to sort it out. I looked on the www, then I looked again, looked again etc. In the end I was on a page and there was a click to see if Firefox is the default browser button, I thought "Why not?" clicked it and it said "No, wanna connect it?" so I obviously clicked yes and now it works. It has been broken for days

Eding

So this morning I woke, sat up in bed, was putting on my splint etc when my alarm clock went off. Gosh, a lie in by my standards. I finished splinting, went had breakfast, went to the loo and did an enormous pooh, came out of the bathroom and Ed knocked the door. So we went was too far east on the M4 to the Wildlife Trust where I did good work on the PC

Paul

Then Paul came over, and waited a bit as we were still at Dr's, and then did loadsa paper work and hoovering etc. We talked loads and I had a play with his phone, I now want one like that, internet, GPS, camera, and more to the point notepad, etc and loads of other aps. and download more if I want some. He knows the score, if we find one that I want then I will have to email the serial no. to Carolyn who will then, as my prefect, set up an account so it will be paid monthly. And I think it is about 25% more than I use in PAYG every month and a lot posher. If we can find one that I like and can use

Busy

So first thing s'morning I went to the Asthma Clinic with Denyse. We spoke to the nurse, and that was a busy conversation. For a start she told me that I can take between 2 and 8 puffs a day of brown puff, I currently use 4. It depends on how many blue puffs I am needing, if it is less than 2 or 3 per week then lower the brown dosage. She also said "Want to try one of these?" and showed me an Aerochamber device that you take your puffs thru to make them seem stronger. So if it works I will be able to drop brown puffs

Wiv Freya

And it went reasonably well with Freya today. She was still using my PC almost exclusively and shouting at me but I said to her at one point "So I realise that we don't need to speak etc, you are just here 'cos you wanna be with me" and she looked a bit embarrassed but agreed

Ooh

So Sarah with an H, the OT, came around to see me today. We talked for a bit then got stuck into making Refried Bean Quesadillas which look very good, sitting on a plate ready to go into t'oven and have some last stuff poured over then me and Freya will eat them

And good lord but it was delicious if a bit hard to cut up. We added so much stuff afterwards that I couldn't just pick up a piece, but me and Freya both made positive noises

Tum Ti Tum

So today is the only day this week when I don't have a MMMs coming in't morning but after lunch Sarah, the OT is coming and I expect to make some equally easy delicious food.

Which I shall share with that Freya this evening

Paul

Gosh, later we were taken off by Paul and he took us to an excellent folk club, we enquired and it is on the first and the third Mondays of the month

Scared / intimidated

So in a bit we are going off to get my weeks shopping and I am gonna attempt to walk everywhere again

And I didn't manage, my right foot was turning over as I walked, like last week, but since then I have the email saying "Relearning" so I didn't want my right foot to learn all wrong so I stopped walking ½ an aisle later then refused to go any more. I came back here and put my shopping away and had sum lunch etc then Ed said "Walk outside with me" so I tried and now I could do it without my foot turning over. So perhaps next week I will walk but be 'chaired round the shop

Then, after lunch we went out, for one direction I asked to goto Cwrt Henri which still makes me feel a bit emotional, even tho it was before Freya was born when we lived there

Phone Call

And I received a phone call today from Brian, Julia's dad. We chatted for a bit, I think his main conversation was "How's Toby?" and I think I was able to make his heart beat better. I think and I hope

Frances

I haven't got into Frank Zappa for some time but I have tonight "Why does it hurt" etc etc etc

SBS

Gosh, it is boring not being busy as I am 6 days next week. Although I did learn why I need to use my 'stick, to stop my body relearning how to walk all wonky

Much Later

So Paul came round and did some dull paperwork then took me out. Just before we went out I switched off the PC so I wasn't able to check the address of a good local veggie place, we went round town two or 3 times before a brain wave struck paul and we went to Frankie and Benny's in Carmarthen in what I remember as the cattle market car park, but it is now an enormous shopping center. Gosh it was mostly meat but we both had a different veggie dish and we were both pleased and impressed

But with the garlic bread to me it tasted like mostly toast, I couldn't taste garlic

And in the driving all over stage we went to Burry Port for a look. They couldn't feed us as the room was privately booked but they did confirm that tomorrows Folk Club is on

Iplayer

Watching Iplayer again

This seems to be becoming a habit now

A very very big habit now, still watching the same, hour long, program

And as a last track they sang "Sex and drugs and rock'n'roll, it's all my brain and body needs" which I can relate to

L8R

Well, it's now Saturday, a bit of a dull day. On a positive note I am going out for dinner with Paul tonight, dunno where we are going yet but it looks good anyway

Iplayer

And I am watching a program on't telly tonight too, BBC Iplayer Annie Nightingale - Bird on the Wireless and it is strange but I like it

Background Colour

And I couldn't find the code to put a background colour on a piece of txt, because I wanted one here, and good lord, I found clues like add this 76 lines of code to the tag etc, and was starting to think "I mustn't have done this before, perhaps I am remembering falsley.

Then at last I found 1 line of code to put anywhere on the page to work

Duh, it is so simple, I have done it and used it now

And where it sez here I did a bit so that link opens up the bottom of the pic, the relevant bit

Paulism

So this morning Paul came round. We talked briefly then went to town. There we went shopping bought 2 swimming trunks, an XL and an XXXXXL. We also bought some sweets, shhh. We came back and the XL trunks fitted so we went back to Tescos and got a refund on the XXXXXL ones. The ones that fitted were £3 (minus 25% at the till). The returned ones were £7 (minus 25% at the till)

Hot

Good lord, it is now 10PM, I have been sat outside under the sky for more than 20 minutes just wearing a T-shirt and a pair of trews, and it is still so hot

It's now nearly midnight and I sat outside for 5 mins before heading to bed, still in my T-shirt

Edding

So Ed came over this morning, we chatted for a bit then set off to head for Dynamic Rock Adventure, the Rock Climbing place, in Swansea. It's 2 junctions past Swansea West but it is still called Swansea North. Anyway we went there, he said I'll just go and see how to enter you, came back 2 minutes later and said "Closed 'til 12 o'clock, where shall we go?". I said that soon after 12 I would be looking for lunch so why didn't we head back for an early lunch then we can come back and play. So as we headed back to Carmarthen we passed a lorry, I asked "I wonder if that's my car being delivered?". After lunch we headed back to the Climbing Centre and good lord, all I can say is "Wow". It was a free visit for us today as we weren't climbing but I am rather impressed, I think we will go back, if we can sort out some hassle(1), and have a go

Yes, I said that I would have a go!!! (/radical)
