We had aweekend planned out. This morning, I was going to go over to GunWharf, a bit unuusal for me unless it’s five guys or the cinema, but this time I need to buy a new pair of trainers, my old ones have been consigned to the bin. I’ve pretty much stopped having pain inContinue reading “1771 – What I didn’t do today (or won’t tomorrow).”

From yesterday’s post, you gather that I’ve been under the weather. All I’ll say is yesterday was very unpleasant today, less so but has been painful. The frustration comes from an online report by a local newspaper on the demolition of the bus station, which is now progressing apace. I really wanted to give aContinue reading “1770 – Frustration”

This is not one of those pictures which frustrates me, because “Scholars” have thrown a crutch into the cockle ponds, and it acutally turns out to be a nice picture (I have had a couple of those). This is one of those pictures that serves my intense frustration at people who do throw rubbish inContinue reading “1768 – Not Tomorrow, Friday.”

If I am not very careful, I will spend all my time writing when I am retired. Somehow, YouTube started showing me videos of people talking about “Morning Pages”. I had no idea what it was people were talking about but it didn’t take much time to find out. A lady, Julia Cameron, wrote aContinue reading “1767 – Morning Pages”

I honestly, really did have every intention of getting up for a walk this morning. Yesterday, we changed from the summer to the winter quilt. Of course, at the start of the night, it was way too warm. By the time the morning had arrived, it urned into a bundle of warmth that was wayContinue reading “1766 – A trip out”

Recently, it has been painful to walk. My right heel has been giving me a lot of pain, and my right leg in general hasn’t been right. I tried sommething today, ditching the trainers that I normally use and instead wore my firmer walking shoes. The result, a significant improvement and reductionin pain levels. TheContinue reading “1765 – A bit of a problem”

I think it was probably by last Thursday that we had mapped out how we wanted today to go. I am very pleased to report that it pretty much went as we wanted it to; We had a fairly easy wake up, except for Misty wanting breakfast at some ridiculous hour, and making no bonesContinue reading “1764 – A day goes to plan.”

Things really are happening down at the bus station. One concern I had was the charity bike shop that had been operating out of a unit around the corner from the Tourist Information Centre. I was speaking to a chap who told me that the shop was operating near St Vincents college. I was pleasedContinue reading “1763 – Friday”

Whilst I went for a walk yesterday morning I took pictures mainly of the start of the demolition of the Bus station, which has now really begun. The guy that I spoke to on Tuesday said that the first thing they would do is take the glass out. The question that immediately came to mindContinue reading “1762 – I should have posted to Facebook”
