while I was tidying up some photos on my phone today I found this one of the local Liesure centre under water during the recent floods, it’s a bit dark as I took it on my phone as the light was going, but I think you can see how much water there was… If you […]

so much water and no water to use… If you’ve seen the news you’ve probably seen something about the little bit of water we’ve had here the last few days. Here’s a photo of what it was like when I as heading home on friday afternoon, before it got really bad: and it did get […]

My Grandma on my mum’s side is 90 years old today which I think is wicked, and the way she’s going I reckon she could do another 90 years! 😉 so Happy Birthday Gran!! I guess I’m getting older, seems like I’m becoming a bit of a grumpy old man and starting to complain about […]

Our cat has decided his nice comfy cat basket doesn’t have a good enough view, or perhaps he just likes to be the center of attention… What you can’t see is that he’s sitting on top of some apples and oranges, so it can’t be as comfy as it looks! 🙂 While I was resizing […]

Busy, busy, busy… Having finally managed to get my new “IM” (internet marketing) info product launched last week I thought I’d take a little time to get out and get some fresh air, so Ira and I went for a bit of drive in the country and ended up at some Rococo gardens that were […]

I don’t read as much as I used to, I never seem to find enough time, so when I do find some time to read I tend to choose something that’s a littel mind stretching, rather than mind numbing (I watch Neighbours at lunch time for that). In the process of trying to find “enlightening” […]

after so many posts last month I guess it’s not a surprise that I’ve been quieter this month.. although that’s probably mostly because I’ve been working hard to finish of my own IM (internet marketing) prooduct [www.lazygitmarketing.com], which I will be launching shortly. and I’ve been away for a week skiing in Austria with my […]

LOL! Since I set up this personal blog I’ve seldom managed to post more than once a month, until this month, now this will be the fourth post for Feb, I must be getting in to this blogging thing.. 🙂 So what’s prompted yet another post? Well, I’m feeling a little tender today. Irina had […]

Hmm, time for a catch up, it’s been a busy couple of weeks, when is it not.. 🙂 Last week my sister got back from a month “Down Under” visiting freinds, so we had a night catching up on things and looking through her photos. She’s got a swanky new digital camera, seems everyone’s got […]

Hmm, I suppose I should mention something about Xmas and New year.. it was mad, as usual. Just before Xmas our friends Chris and Irina were over from Kazakhstan, so we had a cool night with them, tucking in to good old british fish and chips, but with a few vodka’s. We had Xmas Lunch […]

If you’ve been here before, you’ve seen how well my Cacti are doing, but I thought I should probably reveal why that was such a surprise for me.. I’m not particularly “green fingered”, I manage to do a bit of gardening now and then, mostly when it REALLY needs it, I even cheat by getting […]
