Late August update

It's been 11 days since my last entry so what's been happening?

In no particular order:

I am very proud (and about time) to hear that Matt has been promoted to the post of supervisor at BHS with further training to manager level and, ever more important maybe has been the increase to full time hours.

Work has been going well ... I hate to have to keep mentioning this but ... This is voluntary unpaid work.

Not been able to go in as often as I would have liked but often enough to have achieved all that I have been asked to do with efficiency which is the point I suppose. I have one large project due right now but I intend to allocate a couple of days to that as soon as I can. I also need to discuss their website with them to hopefully get something up and running.

Spent a great few hours with friends Sue & Fred who have two kids, Adam & Charlotte. All of them are amazing people and we hope to spend a lot more time with them in the future.

Discovered our friend Jan shall be 60 in October, no way!

One of our neighbours has got themselves two kittens. One of those is obsessed with trying to get in here and it is frankly getting really annoying.

The car still has air conditioning and the cruise control is making driving a lot more relaxing.

I have brought a temporary halt to the home movie making, I need a small break from that

Been spending quite some time on Sims 2 lately, probably too much time.

Hopefully got things sorted with 'The Coach House' so that they all understand what it is exactly they are supposed to do. Levels of service have slipped a little of late so needed to be placed back on track. Jermaine is doing quite well. Too many seizures still and I am so not happy how long it has been left to get that sorted but I am content that I've done all that I can reasonably do.

The weather this month has been depressingly British which means warm but useless for anything practical because of the ever present risk of rain.

Boy this blog entry is boring!

There is no significance in the blog entry title, it just happens to be the date today! So, what happened since March 10 when I wrote my last entry? [caption id="attachment_2042" align="alignleft" width="300"] Priscilla Queen of the Desert Sheffield March 16 2017[/caption] Well, there was this on 16th... we went along, me, Dennis, Sean, Daisy and Robin to Sheffield to see the show and it was really very good indeed. Beforehand we went to the Meadowhall Shopping Centre for lunch and to kill some time. Probably spent too much money, a recurring theme of recent months. A lovely day albeit for a challenging return journey when the M1 was closed.   Now, what did we do on March 18th? Hmmm .... Ah yes, we got married! Link here to Pictures It took several weeks of planning calling in every favour we could, saving money where ever possible. I often think these cheaper weddings are the best. I think it's unlikely even with all the essential costs for the cere...
