Congrats Annaj! Achievements, erm... getting up this morning for work, depositing little'un at nursery and getting in on time(ish) when I was up most of the night with her teething! (managed to settle her quite quickly but could not then get back to sleep for the life of me) and can't get over her staring at me with those big brown eyes with a, "mummy stop the pain please" look in her eyes, I look as though i've been smoking wacky backy all night my eyes are sooo red! (last of her teeth coming through and she's fine now and apparently (according to the nursery) sleeping like a log).

I have achieved today something rather fabulous....

I have managed to go away to a city (Barcelona) and not write a schedule of activity beforehand.

I cannot tell you what an achievement this is ... I have managed (gasp) to be spontaneous.

Tremendous!

I removed a silver birch

Changed the colour of a woman's jacket

Changed the style of a woman's hair

Changed her shoes

....all done in photoshop for an image for a mag.


I walked a dog,

I bought two Bronica GS-1 6x7 film cameras for a stupidly small amount of money...watch out eBay.

And i brought home a 300mm F2.8....hired sadly.. :-((


I'm now about to update my website!

Thanks HonaloochieB.


Funnily enough you're not the first person to say I'm like Monica (good or bad thing? I'm not sure) but I don't like gum and would certainly never give it to small children!

You're welcome AnnaJ. Being like Monica - good.


Feel free to substitute gum for acid drops, sherbet lemons or Spangles as you see fit.

It's odd with these things sometimes.


Perhaps we never met in a previous life.


Less strange things have happened you know.

    • A quick update - my InPost parcels are being accepted sporadically at Barry's, but only one at a time and every few days, after many refusals - one was refused SEVEN times over about ten days - and several phone calls. As a comparison, I had a message from Yodel that a parcel that was going to Barry's is being delivered to another nearby store, which is interesting...
    • The "Community Benefits" are documented on P12-16 of the Consultation Document. Basically unsubstantiated estimates that it benefits local businesses, claims that it provides "opportunities" for local food traders, businesses & people (the term "opportunities" being meaningless - I have opportunities to win the lottery) without any details, facts or figures, and discounted tickets for local residents (which unsurprisingly seldom sell out). The only direct financial benefit to the Park is a £1000 "Biodiversity Fund" and an undisclosed amount for an "Environmental Impact Fee" - looking at how it was spent this year (flower beds in the playground & Sexby garden) I suspect it would be a similarly small figure. The actual site hire fee - claimed as "commercially sensitive" and therefore undisclosed - is spent on: • Funding the council’s free events programme and Cultural Celebrations Fund • Subsidised fees for community events in the borough • Off-setting the running costs of the Events service, which supports the delivery of the free community events programme  Again, no details given, just vague concepts - can anyone name any of these free & subsidised community events? Or what the "Cultural Celebrations Fund" is or does? It doesn't really sound like any of it is worth  the disturbance, restrictions, noise, litter, environmental damage and negative impact on wildlife in our Park.  
    • The organisers must have spent a fortune on the display..imagine how p**s*d off they must have been!!!! Blink and you missed it kind of thing
    • We also recommend Aaron.  Very reliable, reasonably priced and did a fantastic job on our hallway and bedroom ceiling.  A pleasure to work with and left the house very tidy at the end of the job.  Thank you
