Lack of pictures…

…I will try and get some Greenbelt photos up, but it is tricky to do at work, in the meantime here is a picture of me at Wiscombe Hillclimb a few weeks ago!

Wiscombe Neil

Someone at the Museum emailed me to ask if she could use some of my pictures from Cowick Hill over Exeter for a new online project, which of course they can, but it made me think that I should take some pictures around our new flat, and find out some of the history and bore you all with it…

Wibmeet…

…Fantastic turn out at the Wibmeet, some exciting wib news from Dave and Chris, some cans of iron bru and many crisps and nibbles.

A reader of Daves blog turned up to be nosey, and I am impressed with the description of herself on her blog

I’m a liberal Christian Agnostic Universalist, meaning that I don’t think I believe in God but if I do, he’s nice.

I will admit I felt that this Greenbelt was the most ‘Christian’ one yet, but as someone pointed out it was not that Greenbelt is getting more Christian, it is that I am getting less so. I am finding it increasingly hard to explain what I believe about things, but Helens description seems to cover something of what I feel.

Photos will be along when I get back online or perhaps earlier if I get the chance.

Back…

…Back from Greenbelt, really good weekend as ever, the weather was great, good to catch up with old friends, Duke Special were supurb, Chas and Dave were good fun, and the comedian Jo Enright was my hightlight.

Better get back to work now (and keep looking for a new job!)

Ashtrays and off to Greenbelt…

…What have pubs done with all their ashtrays now? are they all on ebay I wonder?

Anyway, I am off to Greenbelt tomorrow morning, so I am signing off for now, have a good weekend!

…Sorry to all the mouldy hair people I have offended, please don’t beat me up at Greenbelt!

I have not given GB much thought until today, I better make sure I can find my tent and things, and perhaps buy some wellies, and supplies (box of wine, cereal bars, apples, orange juice – other than that I live on potato wedges and pork based products from Happy Hogs).

The mouldy hair look…

…I have been noticing that girls and women have been going for, what I call, The Mouldy Hair look. It involves dying the top layers blonde, and the underneath layers dark, so the overall effect is, well, mouldy. What makes people who no doubt have lovely hair normally do this is beyond me.

A bit more building this weekend, just a wardrobe to go! I won’t be online at home for quite some while, I am going to wait until Ivonne gets back, she is better at that sort of technical thing than me anyway, and to be honest flatpack furniture has drained any energy I may have had to do the research into the best deals.

Random, unconnected things…

…Built two bookshelves last night, and a wire rack for the bathroom.

…A man in Sainsburys was whistling, it really really annoyed me but what can you do?

…I got a D in my A-level, which is exactly what I expected. The grade was not the point though, doing it was the point and I really enjoyed it.

…Had a job interview yesterday, seemed a nice place to work but I will have to see if they call me back for another interview.

…There is a very funny show on BBC7 every night at 11pm from the Edinburgh festival, well worth a listen, it makes me laugh anyway (and features the supurb Sue Perkins).

…Tried to play Formula One on Ivonnes Playstation last night, why am i so bad at computer games?

Blogging from work…

… A busy few days, but everything is now moved! Spent lots of money at Argos, and the next few nights promise lots of building flatpack furniture! It is so nice to have space though, space glorious space!
