Well look at that! I’ve been away quite a while haven’t I?
Sorry. Not sure why I haven’t been around. What’s worse is that I’m not sure I care.
I guess other things in my life have taken over, maybe become more important.
As those of you who read Brad’s blog will know we’ve had [...]
Arriving at Mrs Dietwoman’s house this afternoon I was a little worried about what she was going to tell me.
“So how was this week?” she asked, as she does every week.
“Not good,” I said, “I’ve kind of cheated twice.”
“How do mean cheated?”
“Well I had two meals out.”
She frowned a little but more so [...]
Apologies for the lack of updates recently.
I’ve been incredibly snowed under with stuff at home and at work. I’m on this course (as most of you know) through work and the workload for me is a lot so I’d hate to think what it’s like for those people on the course who have kids [...]
On Monday when I say Mrs. Dietwoman she told me that the first and second day would be the hardest. If that’s true then tomorrow should be dead easy!
Today has been harder than yesterday but then again I wasn’t at work yesterday I was on my course. Today I made breakfast for the [...]
Gorgeous Subbers won.
I’m 20st 6lbs!
Well not for much longer.
Day one of my diet is going well. I’m hungry but not starving, although I was earlier. Thankfully I managed to stave off the hunger but keeping in my mind that I’d be enjoying my soup later. I still have one meal owing to [...]
So I went off to see my new fitness instructor and nutritionist today.
I knew I was in for an eye opening experience but didn’t realise just how much! For €80 a time she is well worth it. Actually, I think she is. Lets just say that right now she appears it, we’ll [...]
I’m often amazed at how the mind works when it comes to memory recall. I couldn’t tell you what I had for lunch yesterday but a simple comment on the radio has me instantly remembering something from over twenty-five years ago that I hadn’t thought about for probably the same amount of time.
On [...]
I’ve been sat going though my blog entries of 2009 to try and boost my memory so I can write a review of my year but 2009 was so full of death and sadness that I don’t think it would make a good review.
Of course there were some good times like our trip to Berlin [...]
I went to the doctor yesterday and have it semi-confirmed that I have Swine Flu.
Joy!
She examined me and listening to my chest and then said that given all the symptoms it was quite obviously swine flu. “Without swabs and tests I can’t confirm it but I assure it’s swine flu!” she said.
I have a [...]
Stitches out today.
Relax in the bath they said.
Want to see the results? It’s not pretty. You’ve been warned.

Now I have a splitting headache.

So today we headed off to Enniskillen in Northern Ireland. For those of you that don’t know (and yes there are some surprisingly) Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom but Southern Ireland (the Republic of Ireland) is not, it’s a whole separate country. Bert and I live in the Republic.
On the [...]
I have been watching the series Band of Brothers recently. A friend lent me the box-set after telling me how good he’d found it. I’m half way through and I’m throughly enjoying it but it’s had an interesting but welcoming effect.
My grandfather was an engineer in the Royal Air Force, stationed in Burma [...]

It’s good when actors can laugh at themselves. I’ve been in a number amateur and professional theatre groups and I’ve loved every minute of it. Sadly in any amateur group there is always a couple prima donnas who think they not only deserve the leading roles but should have also have a dressing [...]
On Wednesday we we’re back in Wales for the wedding of some close friends of ours. The friends are the dirty lesbians so it wasn’t a proper wedding it was one of them there civil partnerships those disgusting queer people go through! Personally I don’t think it should be allowed and I totally [...]
We arrived to view the venue at 10.30am as booked and we’re greeted by the duty manager. I knew the events manager wasn’t available as she’d already told me the night before that she wouldn’t be about but I only wanted to look at the rooms and maybe get a price so it didn’t [...]
I’ve sat here for the last ten minutes trying to work out what to blog about.
I did have a clear idea in my head but then I started reading a few blogs and realised that if I wrote what I wanted to write I’d upset a few people and I didn’t want to do that. [...]
In the last two years I have:
- Not been offered jobs I was suitable for.
- Been offered jobs I didn’t want.
- Seen Brad lose his job.
- Had a car breakdown on my three times within a month.
- Been attacked at work around twelve times.
- Been injured at work causing a [...]

In the March of 1994 I hosted my first Oscar’s party. I’d seen the idea on an american television show at some point during the previous year and decided I’d like to do it. My partner was going to be away so I’d have the house to myself so I invited all my [...]
