Well, it's been a so-so sort of day..... nothing too exciting happening here in good o' England !! It's quite a nice night outside - can see right across to the sea ...... bit misty tho' !!
I had a plan today... the idea to get on with the last bit of painting. B & J were off into town this morning & my plan was to do the painting while they were out...... as it turned out - I went with them, so all my great plans went out the window !! Never mind - we did some food shopping while we were out, so that will save time another day...... tho' I did find myself falling "asleep" in the supermarket !! In the end, I had a fizzy drink to replace some 'sugar' & I was up & running again...... nothing to worry about, I just ran out of "get up and go" juice !!
The family are here tonight - well, all but B - who went out to a class a while back.... she has just phoned - the class was cancelled !! So she is going to spend a bit of time in the gym while she is in town, rather than come home & waste the trip. J & ME are upstairs at the moment - ME is going out in a while tho'....
Talking of ME - she bought a bracelet thing while on holiday last September & it's broken. So she sent it back to the place where it came from & they are refusing to replace it !! That stinks !! It cost quite a bit & it's not been mis-used or anything - so, it stinks !!
So, if you're thinking of buying anything from 'Storm' think again - they are a con job of the biggest kind & don't give a s**t about the customer !! We had it checked out by an independent guy & he says it's just not up to it - "not fit for purpose" in his words... so, I've written them a 'nice' e-mail asking them to re-consider.
I doubt if they will do anything, but.... stay away from 'Storm' shops - they stink, it stinks - they got their money & don't give a toss about the customer !! Onwards........
The music of the moment is Iced Earth's 'Festivals Of The Wicked' Cd - part of the box set we picked up in Birmingham the other weekend. It's very heavy & rocks along quite nicely thank you !! It's been a "rock" sort of evening - Judas Priest - Linkin Park & now Iced Earth - just a quiet night in the family household !! I do like the words to 'Declaration Day' - kind of hit a spot with me.... check it out !!
My plan tonight is to get off to bed early - well, earlier than normal..... I'm just running out of steam at the moment. My health problems do this to me, I'm sorry to say. One day I'm fine, then another I'm 'out of it' for hours at a time.... it's not a problem - I just don't go a lot on the fact that I can keep things together as much as I used to !! That really bothers me...... if I go to bed early tonight, I might benefit tomorrow - we'll see !!
Oh - I picked up a copy of 'True Grit' - the novel, not the film. I wasn't reading anything at the moment, so I thought I would give it a try - I like the films (old & new) so, it be interesting to give the book a read.
For once, I have had no 'new' Cds today - but, that's not such a bad thing - there are at least 50 in front of me that need to be looked at, so........ I must get on with it all really !! There is a 'new' Dio one on it's way to me. It's a copy of the 'Evil Or Devine' DVD soundtrack - I've had the DVD for some while now, so it'll be interesting to here the soundtrack. Another Cd for the pile I guess......
I have the Allman's 'Beacon 2011' box set to reach me at some point down the line & I'm really looking forward to that one getting here - all 13 shows + 2 bonus concerts...... "kid in a candy store" comes to mind !! When that gets here it'll be wall to wall Allman Brothers for at least a week - great stuff, I can't wait !! B will probably be out in the garden a lot that week... we'll see !!
I must away - nearly 8pm & I really do need my beauty sleep tonight !! For now.......
Bye Bye
