Monday 19th January 2015
Awake super early.  Went down fishing at 6:30 - starry, starry night.  Not as cold as expected.  Caught nowt, missed the one bit I had.  Packed up.  Bacon buttie and hit the road by about 10:25 home before 2pm even with sitting on the M56 for 20 minutes while a crash was cleared out of the fast lane.  Got home.  Took dog for a three mile round trip on a new walk I recently discovered.   Fell asleep on sofa so decided to go bed at 9.20!

Tuesday 20th January 2015
Woke up at 4am.  Got up at 5:30am.  Dog walked, papers fetched.  Aldi for 8am.  In office for 8:30am. Back home for about 6pm. Had tea. Took dog a walk,  Watched a bit of telly including Count Arthur which was most excellent.  Did a bit of work on a current project.

Woke up before 5am, got up at 5:30.  Took dog a walk and fetched papers - snow not too bad but set off for work before 7am, in the office for just after 7:30.  No snow at all in Derby - quite bizarre.  Busy day. Group after work - 1lb off which is a small victory after all the excess of the the boozy weekend.

Up at 5am to make sure Phil got off to LAMMA at Peterborough. Back to bed for a bit then up at 5.40.   Dog walked, papers fetched. Missus is relief care-taking so got Lucy up and off to school.  Still in office for 8:30.   All good stuff.

Friday 23rd January 2015
An other full on day.  Up early. Dog walk, papers.  Brekko, work, meeting with DR.  Aldi on way home - flamin manic that shop is.  Back home for about 6.45.  Tea. Dog walk. Telly. Dog Walk. Watched some of Cambridge vs Man Utd - not bad game at all and pay day for Cambridge on the replay!

Saturday 24th January 2015
Up at 7am!!!!  Lie in at last!   Took pooch to get papers.  Went up town to piccy B to get brekko for everyone.  Got seed potatoes chitting!  This year trying the following first earlies - Home Guard (in honour of Captain Mainwaring obviously), Swift - as they sound nippy, and Casa Blanca (an oblique reference to the West Wing), for second earlies am going to try Maris Peers - we shall see.


Golf with JH at 1pm.   Started off slow then played last six holes in level par with a spawny birdie on the 7th. Ended up with a decent enough 21points.   Got home.  Got trimming the lilac tree so there will be more light for the greenhouse.  Going to work well I reckon.  Need to get it all took down the recycling tomorrow.

Sunday 25th January 2015
Up at 8am!!!  Blimey.  Walked round the meadow with the daft dog.  Got all the tree bits broken down to manageable size and then taken down to the Recycling.  11am walk was along towards Sides Mill and then round the foresty commission bit on top of the old tip.   Beautfiul day.




Got back and on with the job. First of all emptied the metre sqaured planter thing then shifted all the 45cm x 45cm slabs off the bit where the Greenhouse is going and stacked them where the meter squared was.  All good stuff. Showered and ready for a late lunch at the Shant with ma and pa.  Very nice.  Back home and more walks and then getting stuff ready for work - watched a couple of True Detectives as there's nothing on telly to touch it!
