Cycling

And we have just been to the summer cycling temp place and it was OK. I had to stop early and complain as my right foot wasn't positioned properly but hopefully that won't happen next time. They were short of bikes tho as they hadn't brought too many to the temp place and we arrived just after a load of visitors

Treat

And the postman brought my treat from Treat.com s'morning. It said on their site "First delivery free, cost after that" so last night, after they told me they had sent my freebie I went online and spent ages looking for ways to unsubscribe.
It wasn't easy but I found it in the end
And I have eaten 2 of the 4 packets so far and on both of them if said "Only x calories contained" which was nice

Won Twice

And recently my life has been full of games, Solitaire and Backgammon mostly. I have won then both in the past but tonight I played one, won it, played the other and won it too (which is quite unusual for backgammon, I usually lose that)!!!

Slackbladder

I am watching a comedy series from my youth and enjoying it loads

More Reasons To Shop At... (-- clickable link)

So we nipped to Morrison's and bought some cheesy bread rolls which were t'only thing we couldn't get on Friday when we did the extra shopping

Colour Blogging

So I was trying to BlogUp some Large Words With Colour Round 'Em, but it looked like this, all small coloured patch, so I thought about it again and again and thought "Ah, size in the colour thingy?" and it worked, well readable

Out&About

So I said to Edweena that there is a new poster on my wall saying "Neil should be out every day" so where shall we go today, but he said "It's a weekend day" so we went nowhere

Blik Coffee (2)

And I am enjoying black coffee even more now

Watching

Gosh, I am watching Bridget Jones's Diary on't telly ATM and it is rather excellent
I have been concentrating for over an hour already, still concentrating

Double Scary

So then at lunchtime I had the first of my 2 groovy classes and walked round and round for an hour.
Then afterwards I came back here, had lunch got stuck into gaming on my iPad then looked at my watch and panicked. I ran to bed, had a nap then nipped to Aardvark and did my weeks shopping before it shut

Emotional

Then over breakfast I found a track name and listened to it. Gosh, it became a bit emotional, it turns out that the track was one off the first 12" record I owned.
Then I clicked a link to an interview and just generally was young again
Then later in the day I heard Abba at gym. I sort of thought "Gosh, my first Xmas records, Abba - Super Dooper and AC/DC - For Those About To Rock"

Blik Coffee

So s'morning I am drinking black coffee, a new taste, 3 or 4 days since I had milk in a coffee
A number of years since I had sugar and a number of days since I had milk either

Trysordy

Then we headed off to my rescheduled recycling trip, it was good. Packing loads of odd incomplete socks into bags, folk buy them and get stuck in with scissors and glue
But it was strange being there without one of the other Tuesday resident's, the Autistic aggressive chap

Lynda

So s'morning at 11 the toe cutter lady arrived and earned her cash in next to no time. Gosh but she is good and quick
And I arranged my next appointment for a different day as Thursday mornings are busy now

Isn't she...

So I had an appointment with Denyse s'morning and she talked a great deal about my "stage" of recovery and where we\I should be heading now. (Not "for the rest of it" just for now)

Out and About

Then me and Alex headed out in the car. First of all I directed us to Mynydd Cerrig and we called in at Ruth's house and delivered back Athan's toy which he had left here
Then we went into Carmarthen looking for a bun shop but everywhere was closed (It was after 9pm) we ended up in SHHHHH McDonalds and bought two mugs of tea and two buns

Ruth and Athan

Then about 4 o'clock Ruth and her talented son, Athan, came round. It was excellent to see them both and Ruth made some noises about me finding a life which was positive
When they went home Athan left one of his toys sitting on my table

Level 3 class

So I had my first Tuesday mobility class s'morning. I could walk faster by the end of it than I could at beginning.
And it is strange noticing stuff today. I wasn't concentrating on my right wrist and it stayed in position for the whole session.
I didn't have to concentrate on my right foot for about the first 3/4 of the session and it didn't turn over at all, then I had to concentrate for 10 minutes then for the last 5 mins it turned over outrageously

Ulster

I have just caught a program about NI on BBC3 "Petrol Bombs & Peace: Welcome to Belfast" it was called. Just wow, they came to "peace" how many years ago and many folk are still so bitter. Apparently the 12th July was more violent in 2013 than it has been for many years
