Enjoying The Quiet......

Well Hello Worlds !!

How has your day been ?  How has your weekend been ?  Ours has been quiet.... very quiet.

B has been poorly, with some kind of bug, so that meant we stayed home yesterday & missed Church. I knew she was poorly, on Friday - but, by yesterday... well - she is a little better today !!

She has just gone into town - to do the usual.... pay bills, put money into the bank & - if she feels well enough - go & do the lunchtime gym class. I suggested she miss it - but, she says it's an easy one & wants to try it !!

So - that's the wife... J is on hand to look after me.  He has a meeting, tomorrow... but, today is a quiet day for him.  which just leaves ME - she has started her new job today !!  Bless her - I made sure I saw her, before she went... so I could say "good luck" & we had a text from her, a short while ago, saying all is well !!  Bless her - I'm really proud of both of our kids !!

Talking of kids.... I have a Son, from my first marriage.  I mention this, really out of interest.... as a day or two back, J had an e-mail from him, asking for my e-mail address.  This is very strange !!  I didn't see him, from 10 months of age, until he was 21.... and even then, it was only for a couple of hours !!

He then stayed in contact for a couple of years - & then nothing..... I mean nothing, no letters, no e-mails, no phone calls... nothing !!  We sent a birthday card to him - like we have for the last 5 years - but, that came back "No longer at this address".... so, I thought that was
it !!

But - then... on Saturday... the strange e-mail address query !!  I've not changed my e-mail, at all, for the last 10 years.... so, it's all very strange really !!  If anything of interest happens - I will let you know !!

Right - the music of the moment.... well, I'm in a laid back kind of mood... so, it's the Fleetwood Mac 4 Cd set I picked up a few weeks back.  It's the first time I've played any of it - I loaned it to M (ME's boyfriend) & he had it for most of the time.... anyhoo, that's what I'm playing as I type !!

I was looking for a Zeppelin concert... from July 30th.... but, I don't have one !!  The 1973 tour had just finished, The 1975 tour ended in May & the 1977 tour ended with the news of Robert Plant's Son dying. So, it's all quiet really as far as their live shows go.  I have some, from August, but not quite yet !!

I was a little disappointed last night... there was a broadcast of Robert Plant's live set, from WOMAD.  But - as far as I can tell, they only put out about 20 minutes worth - maybe a bit longer !!  So - that was a let down !!  I've have to check the whole disc... maybe they put more on, later in the night.  I doubt it tho' !!

However, the weekend wasn't a complete "wash out" as far as music was concerned !!  On Saturday night, I think, they put on the Beethoven broadcast (it was on the radio) on TV.  It was even better, watching it & listening to the radio broadcast !!  The singers were amazing !!

Also - I had 2 Jack White concerts come in the post !!  One from April & one from June.  I've not had time to play them all the ways thru' yet - but the bits I have heard are well good !!  See, in this homestead - you get a great wide variety of enjoyable music....... it's all good !!

I hope, this next couple of days will see the arrival of the Michael Schenker 'live' set.  I ordered it a little while ago & the last I heard, in was in the post - but, knowing 'Play'... well, it could take forever to get here !!

As yet, I've had no further news from my ASDA, regarding my complaint..... about the guy swearing at me.  The lady, who phoned, the other night said someone would get in touch with me, within 72 hours.  So - that will expire later tonight or first thing tomorrow morning..... depending on how you work it out !!

I don't think anything will be done - if the guy denies he said it & the staff, who were around him at the time "close ranks" - well, it will be forgotten about & the guy will get away with it !!  It won't be right - but, I can see that it will happen all the same !!

None of us are going to be using ASDA.  B has agreed with me, the guy was out of line & ME has decided (as soon as we told her what happened) that the guy should be sacked !!  We will have to wait & see how things pan out..

Right, my plans for today..... um, none at all really !!  All is quiet & I'm going to sit back & enjoy it, for all it's worth !!  So - until next time..

Bye Bye
