Today is a Friday & I'm really pleased we went to Birmingham last weekend - the forecast is wet & horrid, so it looks like we picked a good one !! It's raining 'cats & dogs' outside - it's meant to be showers today or so the BBC said .... some showers !! Never mind - it's dry in here, so........ onwards.
The ladies of the house have gone to the gym - must be mad - but, that's what they want to do..... that leaves me & J here to keep house. He is upstairs someplace & I'm here in the living room. Only a few days ago, I thought it would be nice to have a laptop - so I could sit outside & do these posts....... I think today - well, I'd need a canoe or at least a rubber ring to keep me afloat !! It's very wet outside folks......
The music of the moment is Anvil's 'Past & Present - Live In Concert'.... it's well good !! I only ever saw these guys once & they left quite an impression on this old brain of mind .... this Cd is one of those we picked up last weekend !! Earlier I was playing a Cd by the Men Of The Morman Tabernacle Choir - now those guys can really sing.... honestly, they do some fantastic tracks !! Don't let the thought of 'them' put you off......
... now the sun is out - weird !!
Back on music - in the post today, I had a copy of the new Queensryche Cd 'Dedcated To Chaos' (when did they look in J's room ?).... I'll give it a play in a second, see what it's like. Their last one (I think) 'American Soldier' was well good - I'll give the new one a listen... certainly started loud enough !!
I'm not sure what the plan is for the weekend - hopefully involving staying dry - but... as part of my birthday pressy's.. at some point, we are going to go for a ride on the local steam railway. We were going to go yesterday, but I'm glad we didn't - it would of been very wet to go walk-about in Minehead.... that's where the train stops & it's a pretty good little town, but not in the wet !! I'm guessing we have to do some shopping - time will tell !! for today tho' - its wet & I have music to play !!
I know we have to go into town at some point - so I'm thinking it'll be Saturday. All being well, we'll get to Church this weekend...... I'll see how my health is come the day. Didn't get much sleep last night.....
I kept hearing B's telephone going off - but I couldn't find it.... this was about 3am - anyhooo, I came down stairs & somebody knocked at the door. It was P (our neighbour) was there in a bit of a state. He had to go into the hospital & he needed to leave 'their' son with somebody - so B went over to his house to do the honours. I do feel for him - his Mum died & he had to get there before she passed. He didn't know who to call on - so he came to us, bless them.
They are one of our better neighbours & we'd do anything for them....... we didn't get much sleep, but it didn't matter in the shape of things.
It's raining again !! Oh well.........
I think I must better away - it's 4pm & I have to take my afternoon med's..... B left them here for me someplace, all I have to do is remember where .... this Queensryche Cd is pretty good !!
Bye Bye
