Well I had an interesting morning today. Ever been ice-skating in a Landrover? I was a little busy to take pictures of the ice-skating cars around me, but I did get this when I woke up this morning. That’s my snow-covered Landy in the bottom right. As you can see, I live on the side […]

Nope, not for me but… One of the cadets in my squadron lives apart from his mother, as they have a “troubled history” together. He lives in a flat owned by a housing association – except the guy who the HA gave the flat to is sub-letting it out to him. This landlord is also […]

Apologies for the lack of updates, it’s been a long week. Last week started off badly with a callout on Sunday evening that saw us stood down en route. Nothing unusual, but the week carried on badly with a funeral on Thursday, coupled with a search for a missing person in Pembroke Dock, which I […]

Remember this and this, the search that never was, for a gentleman who was armed? Looks like they’ve found him.

Well, this week is rapidly establishing itself as a screamer as it’s already Wednesday night. It’s been flat-out busy at work and private life hasn’t been much less hectic. I spoke to my stepmother today. They think that she’s had a relapse of her breast cancer, so she’s going into hospital next week. What with […]

It started off as a nice day today. Last night Lynfa, one of the girls from the team had come down and we went out to the local for a few drinks and a game of pool. I didn’t get up until about 1100 and we spent the day having a laugh and pottering around […]

Gosh, it’s been busy recently. A few interesting bits and bobs, including a callout I didn’t blog (sorry!) and a few items. In fact, checking back, I’ve missed quite a few things. Eeek. Firstly, I saw this today, which  will like. Nathan is still popping around regularly and we cuddle on the couch, watch movies, […]

Just got back from a long but unusually fruitful search – this is starting to become a habit. Significant for me because it was my first real honest-to-God casualty that I was the first aider for. The pager went off at about 1830 and all credit to the police for calling us so quickly. A […]

Well, what a fun-filled weekend that was – and for once I’m not being sarcastic. Friday night and Saturday night I had friends around to try and help me drink some of the leftovers from the housewarming party. I’m now out of Guinness, and most of the Grolsch, but I still have Hoegaarden and plenty […]

No, this isn’t a rant saying that Cristians are idiots. In fact, I should probably replace “christians” with “religious zealots“, however… Looking for a book on Amazon, and I came accross a comment on a book called “The Veritas Project”. I was looking for a book on Veritas (now Symantec) BackupExec. The comment read: ” […]
