I've got hundreds of the buggers...   all recorded on already mind!

 

Now I've got the walkman working I think I'll have tolisten to some of them  😉 

I just googled `tolisten` and was asked, "do you mean `to listen`" 🤣

tee hee - yep I do - (basically I think my fingers can't keep up with my thoughts) I'll edit the post...

 

At least it's not just me that googles stuff like that (half the time I think it's some sort of new slang).

It did take me a treble read to realise "tolisten" was a minor typo. i read it as "Tolstein" in my brain the first time and thought it was a band

 

[skomaz]

Apologies to all - I'll try and tell my fingers to keep up in future!

For me it was possibly a Soviet Writer I'd not heard of!

The wee one is settled in in Scotland and big one is the boss in Norway.

It was announced during today's lecture that I do not need to travel up to university tomorrow for the next lecture as it will be online.

got notification in the post today that our planning application to raise the height of our boundary wall along the rear of the house has been granted with 4 conditions none of which are anything special - one is that we use the same type and colour of stone as the existing.... well duh.. i was hardly going to use a different bloody colour

 

just have to figure out how were gonna pay for it now!

I'm another year older (but not necessarily wiser) today and one of my childhood best friends turned up today to drop off a present for me. It was so nice to have a catch-up.

Looks like he had a good time with his dad. He cannot have fallen off much as his trousers look very clean (and bright).

yeah, he did well. when he was tipping over his sense of knowing he was gone is pretty good and he hopped off to stay on his feet.

Walked with a chap whose just gotten into walking. Had to leave him to it though, he had one hill to do, I had five to skip round.

 

moment of joy, finally felt confident to push on during the last leg of my walk today; the descent!
 

Third day, 3400m and a bunch of tops and whilst felt it in the ups today, I wasn’t empty! Yay!

"My Music" on the speaker with an attitude problem (Amazon Echo), ice cold glass of Pepsi, and this classic in front of me. Bliss.
