So many to recycle, and no I did not really have them all in one go! get them in the recycle bin to be sent for a meltdown, eh, do my bit to help save the planet, hmmm, before North Korea decides to cause some kind of melt down, its on the tins, extra smooth and chilled, the leaders of North Korea really do need to chill out and smooth over that bumpy past.

Food on the knees
One thing about making lots of bulk meals, when one has been dragged out of the freezer and forced into the casserole dish, been in the oven for about one hour at about 180 degrees, this is something else in gas, erm, oh yes, we simply let it cool a little, squirt a lot of juicy tomato sauce into the side and tuck in, what a way on keeping the bills down, ah, but, hmmm, oh well…

Daffodils through the snow
While the weather is getting a little more like Springtime, it is only a couple of week since these daffodils decided to keep on pushing through, they are such a workhorse.
But are we all ready for some warmth after one of the longest coldest winters on record, brrr, I know I am. -
A cat in the morning
I woke and opened my blinds, sat there was one of my neighbours cats, when I tapped the window it turned around and still seemed half asleep ha.
It almost seems to have a Hitler type ‘tash’ and face pulling… -
Bianchi C2C Via Nirone 7
And it happened, a road bike through the cycle to work scheme, super grateful to work, yes I have already been asked if I have been out on it but, it is on the agenda, a target that moves, health then fitness, matter over mind, it seems my health is stable and so I will take some small tentative pedal stroke on it, all in good time!
Understandably it might have been too big for a neighbour to receive, even getting it into my flat, mind you, the delivery man did say its one of the lightest bikes he has delivered…
Since starting my career, erm, started cycling, I have always loved the colour scheme of the Bianchi’s, I have never had an Italian frame, or even a fully kitted out Italian bike, absolutey loved lifting this out.
This is just so special, it felt good, really light and very comfortable to hold, it tasted like I had been waiting for ages! oh, the bike is going to get a great review soon, just a little warmer weather and a few items to buy and we there. -
Tell you what again
Iv so much to write, about so much! but, this has been the coldest winter in ages, in longer than my 48 years, its my first winter working while being a rare sarcoid, this past week iv been learning some pretty tough new skills at work, enjoyed, its been a superb challenge, but then I get home and just need to regenerate my own heat and eventually hit the bed.
Lets have a reminder of the weather towards the end of March 2013…
What appear like hot ash plunging to earth is simply my phones flash against the falling snow.
What appears like a street light is simply the flash against the near horizontal snowing!Yet the same week in March 2012 I performed the following song, my own song about Sarcoidosis, the only song about sarcoidosis on our gorgeous planet, aptly named too…
Memories of a gorgeous March day. -
Pure absolute power…
Umphhh, that is all I can say, a perfect blend of the 300 Watt Marshall cab and the 150 Watt Bugera head – brilliance, I cant hear what your saying…
Tonight will be sooo good, Matts band supporting Jacobs band at Delius lived next door, cant wait, a first of its kind with much to follow. -
Happy 77th Mum
Only 23 years until you get a letter from the future king!
Love your loads, glad you liked my card. -
Mind over matter over mind
Jeez, we know the usual saying is mind over matter, but, matter over mind seems to be kicking in – ouch…

A fine test in Leeds
Yesterday was a good day for many reasons, but quite importantly I worked (yes overtime!), followed by a great night out in Leeds straight after, from the very start it was amusing, I get on a completely empty train at Ilkley station in the morning, and some guy comes and sits next to me, erm, time to get off and go for a walk for me!
We were due to meet at ‘Spoons’ in Leeds train station, I ended up at the White Rose bar, woah, some characters in there, guess I fit in, but rushed out after realising I was in the wrong place! We called at a few bars, very good music, this town is lively, and we should have eaten at ‘Reds’ but it was full, ended up at Rib Shack in the Corn Exchange, I think?! fantastic food.
Im so happy ‘The wall of flames’ was not attempted, the staff were very courteous and allowed us to test the sauce first, jeez, that is the hottest sauce ever, even ice didn’t cool the mouth down, what fun seeing us six falling around the table with mouths on fire…During the evening, well, a woman sits next to me “what do you do then” she asks, my reply “I like walking by the canal when its frozen over” what planet caused me to say that!? future wife material she was… but in the station when three of us are waiting for the taxi some guy walks up and says to me “do you have a big cock” then walks off, what the… ha ha.
Top night, first big night out with friends since returning to work and straight after working too, a good test on myself, and very happy with the result.
