Glimmer 7 and on a sunny day, I find myself looking up the noses of the heads on the Mill on the way into work.
Music
Lines…. it’s a brick. First of the lates and the usual greeting with Liberty of 3 more days! Bit of a slow start, the hardest HBB supported by Ash. Generally other than value think it was an alright day but a cheeky add line may have saved me. A few mobile lines help too.
Still feeling a bit shit but I will survive! Struggle to get up this morning. Am late in, Lib is worried! In the evening I struggle to eat tea, just not in the mood for it.
Way home and another pint of the Naughty Hooker and a wee nip of Black Bush. It’s not often I have a whiskey but have been chatting with a fella in Crumlin and feel like one tonight.
Day off. Day starts with me taking the piss… literally to the GPs. Whereupon NHS IT strikes, they have to hand write the sample form because the printer is dead. On the way up a couple of photos. Need to look at them to see if they are prompt suitable. Jump a bus back home.
Herself off work, still recovering from Asthma attack. Take a wee dander to get a photo for tomorrow in the afternoon.
Pump up the tyres and sort rear reflector on the bike. Usual day off preparation for first early of the week.
In other news there is some movement on the Roots allotment situation. They’ve announced it will be 16 minutes away from Ashton… presumably by car, ‘cos perish the thought you wouldn’t have a car. As long as it’s reasonable cycle ride, I’m in! Looks like a £40 upfront then for a baby patch about a tenner a month. Not looking for anything huge, it’s not like I have a clue what I’m doing! As much as anything it’s a healthy thing to do on a day off for the old mental health.
Swift pint tonight after work, day went a bit better, still not great. On the plus side the team is fab and that keeps you going.
Day off and Elsie goes to the Vets for her jabs. Given a lift by Steven and Ryan. Cat behaves well, jabs go well. Struggle with tiredness, Elsie and I repair to bed.
Beer avec Carol in The Lickers, snack that buggers me up for the curry I cook later.
1st of the lates and I’m struggling. Thank gawd for Kawa’s. Still struggle with a late start, too early to do much, too late to not do something.
Sunday and I’m in… at least there is Pizza. Phone the boy and Mum as usual, watch the Throw Down and Call the Midwife. More importantly home to meal cooked by C including dumplings. Love ’em!
Really rather proud of this one, reached the Top 10 of The Big Photo Hunt!
Day was a bit weird, started badly and finished strong. Job opportunity handed to me but would mess up appointments and things, will mull over and don’t have to give immediate response.
Saturday, little light shopping, drink with C at the Tom & Gerry which seems populated by geriatric one armed bandit raiders with loud voices.
Home and sort the cat litter and wash up. Simple food tonight in terms of Haloumi burgers and sweet potato fries. Making some fruit scones too.
Queenie comes out to play! Meanwhile a day that started off poorly but finished relatively strongly.
Manage to retrieve the bike from the Station, snow is promised for tomorrow so might be a bus day!
