Greetings Worlds Of Internet Space !!

How are you all doing this fine morning ?!  I'm not too bad here - I had a very restful weekend & that has paid off, as I feel a lot brighter in myself, than I did last week !!  So - that's a bonus.... not feeling too much like c**p.......  Thankfully, B also had a quiet couple of days, so she has had chance to unwind a bit - spending quite a bit of time, out in the garden planting up various things.  She loves her garden - I just wish it was a little bigger for her !!

On Saturday, we went off into Taunton - well, the outskirts of the place - to one of the DIY & garden centres.  B had about £75 to spend... so, she used it to buy plants & stuff.  That might sound a bit of a waste - but, it was money we got back from our house & car insurance.  The idea being, you get both policies from the same place & they 'give' you a £75 voucher, as a reward........ it was that which B used on the weekend.

I didn't do very much towards the trip - just went along for the ride really !!  As you will know, I hate crowds & stuff - so, I just hung back & let B get on with it !!  She knew - more or less - what she wanted, so, I let her get on with it !!  As long as she is happy - I don't care !!  She is my Wife & dearest friend... so, I'm just happy to see her happy really.

Talking of B - she has gone into town.  To put some cash in the bank, go to the gym & then back to do a little bit of shopping - probably in ASDA.  I hope I haven't made a mistake........ B asked if I wanted anything & I said "only some paper"..... but, I didn't want her to buy it today - I can get it any time really, but - it is the only thing I wanted.  I'll see if she calls me later - I can then, maybe stop her buying the stuff !!  I don't like calling her too often - especially if she is driving...... I don't want to put her off !!

The paper in question is some glossy stuff, that ASDA have on knock down.  It works out at less than 6p a sheet & it's good quality stuff.... so, a bit of a bargain really !!  I use it mostly for Cd's - the labels & what have you.  White paper is Ok - but, the glossy stuff just give is a better finish !!  Plus - the guys use it for photo's.... so, it's a bit of a bargain at the moment !!

Talking of the guys.... J is upstairs working on some computer stuff & ME is on Uni placement today.... she had a day off yesterday, which I'm glad of - as she did a 13 hour shift on Saturday !!  Anyhoo - she spent the day with M (her boyfriend) and rested up a bit...... she does do a lot of driving each week + the hours as well, so she needed a break !!

So - that leaves me here.... the music of the moment is Gov't Mules' 'Deepest End' in concert..... well good. It's the soundtrack to the DVD, which I transferred over to Cd, for my own use !!  So - please don't ask me for a copy - you ain't going to get one !!  The same goes for my Led Zeppelin collection....

Talking of which.... on May 21st 1977, the band were in Houston, Texas..... I have a 3 Cd set of the show & the tracks are:

1) The Song Remains The Same
2) Sick Again
3) Nobody's Fault But Mine
4) In My Time Of Dying
5) Since I've Been Loving You
6) No Quarter

CD 2

1) Ten Years Gone
2) The Battle Of Evermore
3) Going To California
4) Black Country Woman

7) Kashmir

CD 3

1) Moby Dick
2) Guitar Solo
3) Achilles Last Stand
4) Stairway To Heaven
5) Rock & Roll
6) Trampled Underfoot

This is a great concert & luckily, this is a soundboard recording of the show - capturing pretty much all of it !!  I do like audience recordings - for the atmosphere - but, this one is well good !!  As always - don't buy bootlegs... buy the official stuff instead !!  More another time.....

There is a record fair this weekend - in Taunton.... if I'll get to it, well, I don't know.  I'll have to see how things go this week first !!  I only saw the signs for it, on Saturday, when we went to get B's plants.

I took the Dr's advice & didn't go to the Stake Conference yesterday.  We do try & go to the Sunday morning session.... but, my GP said I should rest & B thought the same - so... I decided not to argue !!  It would of been nice to have gone - but, I have to consider things a bit more now, compared to a years or 2 back !!  I'll probably get a few moans about it - when we go to Church next.... but.... !!  We'll see how things go.......

Oh yes.... my thanks to my UK readers, for logging in today.... the last time I looked, you had read some 20 pages !!  I thank you for your time & keep reading "I might write something worth reading one day"  Ho-hum !!  Onwards.....

The Olympic torch makes it way thru' out area today....... I won't be going to see it !!  Wouldn't this be a great idea.  The London Mayor, Boris..... goes out into the middle of the Olympic stadium, picks up a radio mic & says "It's open - lets get started".  No big ceremony, no fuss.... no big waste of money - simplicity in itself !!  I don't see that happening, do you ?  Oh well.....

My plans for today....  I still have a box set of Lp's to record & will probably get on with that, when I close this.....  It's a box of "elevator musac" but, I said I would do it - so I better keep to my word !!

Anyhoo - for now, I will away & get a glass of water, kick back & enjoy 8 Lp's of 'Soft Lights & Sweet Music'.... doesn't that sound like a lot of fun ?!  Until next time....

Bye Bye
