Allman Brothers & a dodgy computer !!

Hi again everybody !!

It's a very warm Saturday, here in England...... altho' it's overcast & the Sun is in hiding, it's still one of the warmest days of the month, sooooo far that is !! The grockles, are all heading home - the kids all go back to school, this coming week...... so the South-West of England will no longer be full & over crowded !! Life is good.....

Many years ago - before the motorways came this far South-West... the roads used to be full to over capacity & the traffic to used to jam right up, for mile after mile. People who live around here, will probably remember those days.

Anyways - for fun, one day - somebody put a sign up, beside the road..... "Sorry - South-West Full". It was a really well written sign, almost like an official thingy !! I don't know, exactly what happened - if people turned around, but it made the TV news that night !! Oh - the fun we had !!

Right - it's a Saturday !! B is behind me, in the kitchen, munching a small bit of 'Ginger Cake' - which she made a short while ago....... it's still warm & the smell is brilliant !! A short while back, she took a piece over to one of our neighbours, along with a packet of plums, from our tree. Some years, we hardly have any plums - then, this year, we have loads of them !! Oh well...... we will no doubt have some fresh plum jam, very soon !!

A little earlier, we started on sorting out the loft & managed to tidy up a number of bags.... mostly soft toys, that belong to our Daughter, ME. At some point, they will go from here, over to the M & M's house..... maybe they can put them in their loft.

It's amazing really.... just by going up & clearing the bags, around the loft entrance, we've really sorted out a big space already !! That was our plan, at least - that's what we hoped would happen !! There are sooooo many bags & boxes, up there, that just need to be sorted & tidied away....... in order to make a whole bit more room & what have you !!

By the time, that we've worked our ways, from the entrance, a ways to the back of the loft, hopefully, there will be less clutter & more sense to everything !! B pointed out, there are bags of curtains & cloth, all of which is not being used, at all - so, they might as well be thrown away..... time will tell on that one, I guess !!

Oh well..... we only did a small bit, today.... but, it's all going to help, in the long run !! Even if it takes a few weeks to go through everything !!

Now - I'm sat here, listening to music & B has gone upstairs, to do some work, in her craft room..... I think we've both had enough of the loft, for today at least !!

As I type - I'm listening to the soundtrack Cd of season 5 of 'Game Of Thrones' - it's really good - especially the 2 tracks that cover the 'Hardholm' section of the episodes !! Well good..... try & get yourself a copy, if you can.... it goes well, with the other 4 soundtracks, of the previous seasons !!

I won't bother listing the tracks - mainly as I want to give you the tracks, that are on a DVD, that came - either yesterday or the day before..... I can't remember. Anyhoo - it's the DVD of the Allman Brothers '40th Anniversary Concert' from March 26th 2009.... it's well good !!

I'm not sure, if I've played it all the ways thru' yet... but, the bits I've heard are really good & worth the cost of buying it !! I've had a copy of it - on Cd... from (I guess) 'Hittin' The Note'..... I'm not sure about that !! Oh well - it's good... so, go & get yourself a copy !!

This is one of those Cd's, that will stay with me for many a year !! It's really a great collection of songs, performed by sooooo many people, that I'm not even going to try & list them..... It's like the Lynyrd Skynyrd album, 'One More For The fan's (or whatever it's called) that I picked up a while ago, really worth your cash !!

Right - I best be on my ways... the ol' computer is playing up & I don't want to run the risk Of it going completely South, before I finish my words !! Sooooo.....

.... as always, I thank you for taking the time, to log in & read my words, it's good to know you are all out there, in inter-web space !! I thank you all & computer willing, I will write some more next week... so..... until next time....

Bye Bye
