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.

    • With fibre you are paying for the speed, which is the number, yours is 300 so if you did a lot of gaming, for example, you would want the fastest possible.  If it's just office work or maybe streaming on Netflix you likely won't need as fast, but, if there are a lot of people in your house all doing their own thing on different devices, then faster speeds are better.  I don't rely on my Wi-Fi much other than when I am using my mobile.  I use Ethernet cables to connect up everything, I Have one cable running from my router, along the skirtings and through a hole I drilled in the wall to another room.  I have attached the plusnet speed guide which gives you an idea of how it works.   
    • I'd reread what you posted and try to summarise.  It just comes across as a rant.
    • Just shows, to me, once proud to be a citizen of UK.. now.. well if we pay/contribute to services - nhs, police, fire etc and folk who have made this there home - no matter what creed or culture.. for the love c of God, can someone  please explain to me.. how we have working royals who like them or not, have tried and continue to actually support and make a change and then we have Andrew.. who just destroys everything.. not just him, or royalty but his own children..  I had great admiration for The Queen - and respect.. as have a huge number of people.. but.. these old traditions where gosh.. live rent free and can’t get chucked out until I believe 2070? From what I scanned..well he has and continues to have it all.. has to go thru what old rules? Etc.  doubt very much he has even kept the upkeep maintenance up on his abode.. and do the shite keeps on pulling up.. What has Andrew done for UK or for that matter since he was 20?? Do please tell me       Totally off topic, before anyone jumps down my throat.. I just do not get how anyone is proud to be British at this point in time. Whoever is in power, seems to be able to help themselves to the public purse with no redress at all - Covid is a great example of lining of pockets.. Millions  given to Rowanda, so one is led to believe, to help with refugee problem and one can’t get a plane load off!  I simply do not get it at all. Use of food banks in UK growing yearly, homeless as well, nhs, police, fire service etc all on their knees..        
    • Have applied the green roof at a number of properties and no issues you are concerned about detected. Have issues with cats defecating in the vicinity, however, they are not selecting the green roof specifically. Use decent compost, slow release fertiliser specific for green roofs, and lay it methodically not leaving blank patches. It looks amazing when cared for and adds value.
