im still here!

just been ridiculously busy at work before christmas, and havent felt that good after!

so off work today, after having to leave early on Friday! goodness i felt poorly...

hoping its just a few day bug... think im ok, then realise im not and just want to sleep..

im not a poorly person , and dont like being ill..

Steves writing a snotty e mail to our X agents as they still owe us money for the deposit from the house in Ivybridge!
they are..how can i say it..Lax , and very slow...
always passing us from one person to another and never calling back when they say!

im glad we have the place rented privately now..lots less hasstle.. and far more reliable..

Hindsight is an awesome thing.. we should have sold the house in 05 and had done with it.. but...

oh well...

anyway.. 2012 it well under way.. lets just hope it will be a good year for us all..

November Rain

Lives up to its title..
Seemingly November is the month of rain ..

its usually wet overnight, dry ish through the morning, then the rain comes in and stays in through the late afternoon early evening!

Oh well..

at least its not snow


YET!

hopes and dreams dashed in an instant!


My last post was Alexs interview day

today was his medical and fitness..

sadly, Alex has issues with lactose and is lactose intolerant.

this was enough for the RAF to decline Alexs application..

he is devastated..

all his hopes and dreams gone in an instant..

all because he cant cope with milk!

good to know that all the front line boys arent lactose intolerant..

were devastated for him too..

their loss..

These flowers (dahlias ~ sweet peas ~ and them flowers that dry... always remind me of my Dad x)


View from the Cafe window ..well.. we had to wait somewhere with a view!



Lunch ~ jerk Chicken and mango salad.. Memories of Barbados!



Saw this advertised made me smile as Nina at work always says this as an exclamation!!!



                                                                       and YES!

                                                            Nelson quietly congratulates Alex...

                                              This is ~ we hope ~ the start of a great career for Alex..
