Here is something funny for you - the 'neighbour from hell' is always moaning about how people park in the close & how she can never get out. Well, B has just gone to a gym class & guess what - there is a big van thing parked right outside of our little patch, with the owners in next door. !! B, however can drive & got out with no problems at all - but, it just goes to show - one rule for her & the rest of us can go s***w ourselves !! Oh well - I thought it was funny.... anyhooooo, onwards....
Right, it's a Friday night here in England, a little after 6pm...... ME & her boyfriend are here, upstairs at the moment & J is behind me, finishing up the dishes. B, as mentioned has just gone out - leaving me typing these words to you all........ so, "Hello everybody" !!
I wasn't really thinking about writing tonight.... I really thought I would be doing other things, but - here I am !! It's been a slow day, we've not been out - putting our trip to town off, until tomorrow.
I did go down to see my GP this morning & - much to my surprise - he agrees with the guy I saw in the hospital, on Wednesday.... the mouth problems are all related to my illness & he kicked himself for not putting 2 & 2 together before !! Me, I'm not convinced, but - I bow to their superior knowledge !! I know it can attack my whole digestive system, but...... I just didn't expect it to be the case this time around !! We'll see how things develop - who knows, they might decide to remove my throat this time !! Hee-hee....
After the Dr's - we came home & B did some housework & I did next to nothing..... no, I wasn't being lazy, I was just keeping out of the way !! I help where I can, but - sometimes - it's best to keep a low profile & let B get on with it !!
To be honest, I didn't sleep toooooo well last night, so just sitting here was, for me, the best option !! I'm glad we didn't go into town, I wasn't really up for the trip - even if it is only 16 or so miles, there & back !! If we have to go in tomorrow - well, I'll see how I am in the morning. There is a record fair on in Taunton, but ...... I'm not sure if I want to go. That's a first - me not wanting to go to a record fair !! I've said that before - I must be sick !!
Talking of music - at the moment I'm listening to 'Strangers In The Night' by UFO... it's the last of the 5 Cd set I've been working thru' all week. It has taken a while, but there is a lot of music to listen to, over each of the discs !! With everyone doing something else, it's given me time to give it a listen !! Oh well - so much music.........
On the Led Zeppelin front... on January 20th (1975) they played a show in Chicago - I think it was the 2nd date of their USA tour that year. The Cd's I have contain the following tracks:
CD 1
1) Rock & Roll
2) Sick Again
3) Over The Hills & Far Away
4) When The Levee Breaks
5) In My Time Of Dying
6) The Song Remains The Same
7) The Rain Song
8) Kashmir
9) The Wanton Song
CD 2
1) No Quarter
2) Trampled Underfoot
3) Moby Dick
4) How Many More Times
5) Stairway To Heaven
6) Whole Lotta Love - Black Dog
It's not a brilliant recording - but I like it !! As time went on, some of the tracks were dropped from their set, & in the end - by the time the tour finished - the band were playing the same set (more or less) every night - more on that another time !! As always, don't buy the bootleg......... onwards !!
Ok - now I'm getting a complex..... every one has gone upstairs !! Was it something I said, or didn't say ?! So, I really am here on my own now..... I've not even got one of the cats for company !! I'll just have to turn the music up a bit louder, to ease my hurt feelings !!
As always, I don't have any plans for the evening or the weekend for that matter !! I hope we'll get to Church on Sunday - but, we'll have to see how I get on tomorrow night first !! I'm pretty sure we won't be going too far tomorrow. I really don't think the record fair will be a good idea & I'm not 100% sure if we need too much in the way of shopping, so - it will probably be a quiet day again !! If we have to go into town, well - I'll cross that bridge when we get to it !! Hopefully, I can just stay here & lay low all day.....
I have to, at some point, take a load of books to one of the charity shops in town..... there is a pile of them sat here, some I've read, others I'll never read !! A few of them were given to me by a couple in Church, just before they went 'home' to America..... as they said, they couldn't take everything with them, so they left a load for me to look thru'. One or two I'll keep - they really are tooooo good to just "thro' out"... even if it is for a good cause. I have one, which is a history of boats, thru' the years - now that one I will keep - who knows, one day I might have Grand kids (not yet guys !!) & they might like that sort of thing !! Hee-hee again !!
Here's a little bit of trivia for you - today, CBS Action (I think) showed 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' episode 133, 'Rascals'. That means, for the last 6 months, I've been watching re-runs of all the seasons up to today !! How sad is that !! Not only do I know it's episode 133, but - as they show 5 episodes per week - I've been watching it for 6 (count them) months !! I really do need to get my drugs reduced, or at least turn the TV off from time to time !!
Oh yes... talking of drugs... my blessed GP has increased my daily intake !! I'm not sure how many extra it will mean over 24 hours, but at 4pm, I used to take 3 pills - now, I'm up to 5 !! So, if we take that over the whole day - well, I can't do the sums..... but, you can see where this is going, can't you !! I was hoping to reduce my tablets this year & here we are, in January, & I'm taking more of the blooming things !! I'm sure I must "rattle" as I go along !! Who knows, one day I might just get off of all of them - but, as the old saying goes.... "when hell freezes over" - we'll see........ !! Time & temperature !!
Right - the Cd is fast coming to an end, so I better be on my ways for this evening !! I'm not sure when I'll be back, but - as always - I thank you all for reading. Until next time.......
Bye Bye
