Well, the local cats and I have started our battle. I went outside tonight and the stink was awful, a strong, musty smell, along with several cat turds deposited on the concrete. One cat even had the audacity to try and come into the house when I’d left the door open for a few minutes, […]
Well, what fun. Saturday was the SGM of SARDA South Wales, where we cleared up a few isues with regards to voting which had been brought up following a recent AGM. Mal and I were suitably hungover for most of the day following the wonders of Senghenydd’s welcome. Saturday night was Richard’s stag night – […]
Today I am mostly regretting drinking so much last night. Just come back from the SARDA SGM where everything went well and all the issues raised were resolved, so looks like things are back on track again for now. I have a stag night tonight, which means more alcohol….*groan*
Well, that was the first night out in Senghenydd. We went down to the local and got drunk. Very drunk. The locals were great, we spent much time talking to the locals and having drinking competitions and stuff and things (us being Mal and me). It was cool, we met loads of locals, better still, not […]
Well, my shower is in – Peter came up tonight to help me replace the old crap one with a far more powerful one which gives a good flow, so now I can have a reasonable shower. However something came to light during the whole event… We needed to replace the MCB as the old […]
Wow. Well, Steve and Ally came and stayed, although Ally fell ill and they didn’t actually achieve what they wanted to. It’s been a long week, with lots of to-ings and fro-ings between the house, B&Q and a local plumber’s trade counter (fraction of the cost of B&Q and far better). On the bright side, […]
Well, it’s been a fun weekend. The BBQ in Matt’s was great, much good food and alcohol was consumed. My intention to blog on the go was scuppered by the LJ client I was using crashing all the time, so that didn’t work. More research is going into LJ clients, possibly even moving my bolg […]
Well, this is the first post from my new toy, a little iPaq. It’s got many cool toys, including a GPS and satellite navigation software. as you can also see it’s got an LJ client. Woot! Anyway. time to head off now. I’m off down to London to a BBQ. see you!
Last night’s training was much fun with bum belays, crocodile walks and human racks, also known as snake belays. All of which are ways of using several people as a “friction device” to put friction on a rope when lowering or raising a stretched over steep ground. T’was quite interesting. Next week is a big […]
Right well, so much for a nice relaxing day of getting on with some work. Comet just called, they can’t deliver today and they’ve rebooked for Monday. Aarrgh. Bastards.
