Double Fark

So I got an email tonight offering me many disabled aids, like loads
What will they think of next.....(This seems particularly relevant to me, I had to learn to use my left hand....)

Fireworks

So Roy had kind of insisted that we go out and watch some fireworks but I wasn't bothered. He knackered himself *so* much cleaning up around the house that he hasn't mentioned it tonight.
Which I am not bothered about, at all

Cooking On My Own Two Feet

So this morning I have been back and forwards about the kitchen, peeling veg, stirring the pan, chopping veg etc making loadsa food and I have been walking backwards and forwards without my walky stick and without holding on at all about 90% of the time, just getting about the kitchen on my own two feet

Relax

So then we headed to the local pub to try and be sociable on a Friday night. There was 2 couples sat together eating and eventually playing pool and just the 2 of us sat on the other side, in the end watching rugger on't telly
So there was me trying to be sociable and there was no one there to be sociable to

Isn't She.....

So while I was in Sam's class today she was doing a "stand with your feet apart" exercise. I caught her attention later and said "It just doesn't work for me, trying to stand like that" and she said "Ah, that's probably because....... you need to do this" which although I didn't have a chance to try did make complete sense to me and I think as that follows on from loads of other advice I have been given that it makes complete sense.

Hectic Day Started

So s'morning I started off with a hurried, very early, lunch then popped out to Lammas St to the toenail chopper and what can I do other than kind of moan uber-gratefully and kind of moan "Forever in your debt"
Then we popped to the Drs and said "Someone contacted you for a proof that Neil is still alive letter for his claim" and they said "Posted it to Anthony t'other day" so again I made grateful noises then left
Then we went straight to gym for my class
Then we panted a bit and said "Glad that's done"

How Posh

So today I was searching on the interweb and this came up, lordy, how posh and how clever must you be

Intimidating Morning, in the morning

Then tomorrow I need to have an extra early lunch then we are heading down Lammas St to the toenail chopper then popping to gym for a class almost straight away afterwards

AM Busyness

So we have the usual Thursday morning business today, to Iechyd Da to fetch my organic food then to Morrison's (noisy link) to fetch the rest of my shopping then to gym for some stressful workout
Well that went well enough. So first things first me and Timmy headed to King St, were able to park without too much delay, and walked down to Caffi Iechyd Da, it had just finished raining. Now as the newbie who took half my veg away t'other week now knows, my box was sitting on a table by itself, waiting for me, when we got there. So we fetched that and then popped to Morrison's where I again didn't have a load to buy, it was cheap this week
THEN after I had put it all away etc we headed to gym where I got stuck into cycling 3.25 KM again, this week I just got stuck in from the start and did it about 2 minutes quicker than last week

Opened My Eyes

This program is very long but as I get thru it I am feeling more favorable about These Punks.
If you are gonna watch it leave an hour aside to watch it all

To Gym, To Gym, To Buy A Fat Pig

So we popped to gym to a different but similarly levelled class. Which was meant to be taken by someone else but actually had That Sam in charge. There were some familiar exercises and some new ones which Sam had to explain. And yes, I feel knackered but healthier, same as usual

Hoo-flippin'-ray

So as it is all confused by half term at gym and there is no swimming class today I had thought we would go out for a long walk today but GGtGG has just arrived and says "There is another worker running a class at the same level as Sam at 2pm today, we are going to that".
So I thought "Yo"

Off Out

And we are off in a bit to try and make a bat box at the Men's Club in Ferryside
Ooooh. Didn't I do well. We dug out a piece of wood, marked all the cuts on and cut it into about 8 "bits" for the box. That has been left on the side there for next week's nail gunning
And wasn't it extra fun using the "cutting it" tools, powered ones again

BT Feck Up

And the BT Broadband has gone down tonight, for the past hour anyway, still nowt.
And RoyGBiv went outside to phone {1} them and see if there was a problem. When he came back indoors I said "They are sorry, they know there is a problem and they are trying to fix it as quickly as possible?". He said "Yes, pretty much"
 {1} As his mobile doesn't work indoors here
And we popped to the Men's Club and came back and the Broadband was back

Restful

As we have already done the cycle we have a restful nooneraft then to Ferryside Men's Shed Club where I have the design to take of a bat box after making the bird box last week

Uber Cycle

So it was a bit strange going to gym s'morning but I think that many of the kids were away doing some kind of outdoor fun as the weather wasn't too bad so I went in and did a mega cycle, 10km. On the way I warned RoyGBiv not to be looking too closely at my time as my leg was so hurt over the weekend but actually I made it under 50 mins which wasn't too slow

Back To Normal Now

Lord, I feel a bit strange after the messing about yesterday and I do feel that I haven't slept very well but there you go. So it is all back to..... and it is Tuesday already even tho yesterday felt like a Friday or summat

Swimming Woes

So we popped to gym later than usual for a swimming session that had been moved cos it's school holidays and it was fscking cancelled. So we got in anyway and did sum exercises

Less Sore

And my right leg is noticeably better today, as it was predicted. Still a bit wonky but not half as much as yesterday

Marginally Scary

So a bit of a strange day today. So s'afternoon we are heading to WaterWorks for the first time. It is like AquaAerobics but with a different teacher. So I will have a shower after that then come back here for a late lie down then off to pick up that Freya who is just down for a weekend then take her out for dinner.
I think she was down to babysit her ex-step fathers brothers(?) kids but they are all too poorly to do owt and she had already bought train tickets so she came down to stay with her Mum for a few days
So she came down (Well, we fetched her), that was nice, we had a pleasant night
