  • Hot

    Very hot yesterday, consequently Deep Sea World was relatively quiet when we went there with the Burgess family. In the afternoon we set off to find the western WW1 gun emplacements, which we did not visit last time. They are not as visible as the east set, but we took some pictures on the walk […]

  • Guide Dog Graduation!

    Our guide dog Chloe has graduated, hooray! Now we have a new one called Ollie, a German Shepherd pup.

  • Coins

    I now have the two £2 coins for 2009 although I was beginning to despair, so I ordered them from the mint. I think people make a habit of saving these, the cost on Ebay is ridiculous but they do seem to be in short supply.

  • Sculpture Park

    You don’t need to know what I dreamed about last night. New sculpture park opened near Kirknewton, could be worth a visit but they are understandably fairly prescriptive about who turns up when.

  • Cold

    Stuck inside with hideous cold, last night when I did sleep I dreamed of huge lists of numbers rising up at me and spreadsheets which locked up the data. At one point I had on fleecy pjs, the winter duvet, two blankets, two hot water bottles and I still could not get warm. My talent […]

  • Collectables

    Oh we did enjoy that film. Have been looking at Ebay of late, finding some fairly random articles for sale.  There’s good money to be had for authentic vintage Sindy dolls.

  • Film

    Tension mounts in Château Holmes as the launch date for the new Star Trek film draws tantalisingly closer, it says here. To stave off cultural drought until that time, we raided the world cinema section of HMV yesterday, realising that for the price of 2 cinema tickets (without trough of popcorn (bleurgh) or vat of […]

  • Birthday

    Guess that’s all the excitement over then, I have had my birthday lunch, which was a grand affair, and we have been to Amsterdam for a look at the tulips. Turned out we were not the only people with that single vision, which when you think about it is not surprising.  Highlights for me were: […]

  • Impending Birthday

    I never want to be this cool. Had a lovely day yesterday in the office, my desk had been decorated for my impending birthday, there were cards, gifts and a few tears.  Having organised and taken part in so many presentations over the years, it’s weird to be on the receiving end, but it was […]

  • Gig

    Played an interesting night in South Queensferry scout hut yesterday, if you can call a beautifully kitted out hall, with extra tent drying facility, on the shore of the river, in the middle of a marina, a hut. The girls thrashed the blokes in the quiz, and the audience, if noisy, were most appreciative, which […]
