Java Snow

And as I managed to update one of my web pages with snow Java today but I can't find a way of making it just be over the picture, any clues pls let me know

Just in time

Then we headed over to Aardvark half an hour early and just caught them, they were closing early too but I did manage to get everything

Anti

And I started taking my antibiotics s'morning. I had initially thought "Wait 'til after tonight" but as I would then have to wait 24 hrs so couldn't start 'til Saturday I just went for it

From The Sky

And when we were heading out to gym today suddenly the sky opened with a massive hail shower that left a couple of inched of hail. Scary and slippery

Less Busy

So me and MM headed off to gym s'morning. I did 4 exercises plus a full 20 mins cycling afterwards so it is slightly easier than a few days ago.

Busy

Then s'afternoon I phoned the dentist to ask about an appointment. It sed "Were closed but phone this if it is an emergency" which I did and they said "Pop into town, see you in three quarters" so we had an emergency appointment at Water Street Dental Practice. She looked, found the pain, said "No fillings have come out but the gum is swollen" sold me some mega mouthwash and put me on antibiotics, so no getting drunk tomorrow.

Then I had a late bath, got up again and suddenly looked in my diary and it said "Go to docs and pic up 'script", we phoned and they were still open for another 25 minutes so we shot down and found the chemist next door also closes a bit later

Gym gym jeroo

So we headed to gym s'morning and I managed 4 weights before a 20 minute cycle session, that was all I could do yesterday, just the cycle

And on the way there we popped into the Spar, just walked in, and picked up a small book of stamps as I had used them all up on birfdé cards

Luscious Linda (or Gorgeous Greta)

And the totty is coming here (if she can get thru the rain) in 15 minutes to cut my toenails

(Or is her name SexySuzanne?)

Excited

And my 3 offspring and one spouse are coming over for me to buy them a Chrimbly Dinner tonight.....

And they were all there tonight. I didn't need a pee from before to afterwards, a number of hours, but generally it was just so special

Struggle @ Gym

And good lord, after 4 or 5 days off I really struggled at gym s'morning. We called it a day after 20 mins cycling....

Best

And these are the best pics of 2015 apparently, from Da Gruniad

Busy

So me and Timmy headed into town and pottered today. While we were there we popped into the cinema and booked 2 seats in Star Wars 76 or whatever it's called for tonight, using my Chrissy pressie of a free film view certificate

When we were on the way home we called into the pub up the street and booked us into there tomorrow, when 3 kids and 1 kids wife are coming to see me

And I owe Denyse and the team a big thank you, the film was a bit excellent, I took me back a few years etc

Going Out

And Sam phoned me tonight and said "Me, Emma, Toby and Freya want you to buy us dinner next Tuesday", so.......

Slimmer

And at the end of Xmas over eating and over boozing I have lost 1lb in weight so at least I am still moving in the right direction

Christmas Is Over

And the shops were open again s'morning, my parents have buggered off....... the Christmas Celebrations are over for another year

Shopping

So we headed off to the shops s'morning. First of all to Wilko to pick up 4 boxes of small tissues to fill the shelves for the next 6 months or so, then we headed over to Morrison's (noisy link) to pick up the rest of my weeks shopping, I think we needed 4 items today

Tara

Well they have gone off now and in the morning they have gotta leave too early to nip over here for a bit. So thanks for a cool visit

Visitors

So we just sat in here s'morning and my parents came to visit, had a cuppa and a mince pie and chatted for a couple of hours. Mummy has taken a few Cream Crackers etc and they are gonna have lunch while I eat lunch, bath and rest, then later we are heading out for dinner somewhere else

And the dinner was as delicious as expected. 

Ho Ho Ho

So I had a morning with the parents s'morning and they were verbally very pleased with their pressies, as was I. So I had an early bath and I am now in bed for an early nap then we are meeting them in town for lunch

Which was pleasant, we had lunch, the veggie option was peppers stuffed with cous-cous and it was actually rather lovely. And as for the Christmas Pudding and Custard, I am in pudding heaven

So as requested by Mumsie we are heading back to see them in the hotel after an hours break

And we had a delicious much lighter meal tonight

Happy Parenting

So we are meeting my parents later who are already in town(1) but I needed nap etc so we will see them in a bit

(1) Much earlier than they reckoned when I spoke to them yesterday
