Christmas Day

Merry Christmas the day went well. Ally was pleased with her pressies. I took my camera flash, flash bracket, diffuser and off camera cord with me. First few pics out of focus. Camera was set to manual focus because I had been doing macro work. The results were good.

Saturday christmas eve eve

Woke late. Took myself of to tesco for another round of christmas shopping. Was tired. Old Swan looked relatively bereft of cars. Inside was full of pedestrians. Went home. Didn't do much.

Gravitas last day of term

I get on the road at some unearthly hour. Pick Jayne up in Mossley Hill then off to Crosby for Jayne. Fart about the office most of the morning. See three post oppers who are doing really well. Reminds me how lucky I am to have a satisfying job. Off to Ruthin for our team meet. Followed by drinks and then a meal at the manorhaus. Excellent place. To start I had pigeon breasts on some beans. Others had goats cheese and onion tart, soup, pate, fishcake and a couple of others. Main was a breast of duck on parsley mash and red cabbage. Others had bambi turkey lamb monkfish nobody seemed to have veggie. My pud was a mix of welsh cheese I ate the blue one ( that's a first) and a mince pie. Conor was there though he snook off without saying tara. He admitted reading the blog too. He missed the potato game. Shame. Home via loggerheads at -5degrees. Very tired.

The family college

------------------

Sick of shopping already

My shopping limit was reached an hour ago. If I am honest I haven't done any just stood looking like a spare part and bag carrier. Stood outside lush trying to avoid the pong. Stood looking in a shop window day dreaming. The mannequin was a lady in a santa nightie. Well I thought it was a nightie. The shop seemed to be Ann Summers, so I side stepped and started day dreaming in the early learning centre window. Having panic attacks with the crowds. This is not for me at all.
------------------

Sat in costa coffee

Went back to cambridge last night. Found our old friend a loch fyne restaurant. Jean did lobster bisque and bream with king scallops. I did potted shrimps followed by pan fried salmon with shitake mushrooms and lemon ginger marmalade. Very nice. Hotel had some pluses and some negatives. After late breakfast hit. The park and ride now find myself in costa coffee in the grafton. Jean is off in search of shopping I chill.

Clare College, Cambridge Ally off for interview tomorrow in the family college.

Practical Breakthrough

Somehow I managed to change the bulb in my headlight. That for this cack handed imbecile is nothing short of miraculous. I managed it quicker than my neighbour Pete and I only got slightly dirty and hurt my fingers only a bit. Now at Costa Coffee norton canes services having made good progress.

Yesterday I wore odd shoes.

Nobody told me. Did they notice?at least they were both black this time. When I realised this morning I wasn't best pleased. Meeting about gravitas website tomorrow. Also involved in some work with the Boss site. Met a woman from Birmingham who wants to start using the BOSS database too.
I want to blog more meaningfully but so much of my life covers confidential or sensitive stuff. I will think.
