Monday 26th January 2015
Bosskat had to get up early to get school off early as they have parent's afternoon today.  So waking up all night to check the time (but didn't set the alarm as I'm trying to develop Jack Reacher-like internal clock accuracy).  Got up at 5.35, dog walked and papers fetched.  Getting stuff ready for tomorrow as might cycle in depending on the weather.  Into the office for 8am.  Busy, busy day ruffling the feathers of folks who think it's okay to use our trademarks to fill their pockets - well that ain't on matey, that ain't happening.  Nasty piece of work,me, oh yes.  Anyroad, busy day, back home a bit after 6pm.   Tea, dog walk. Bit of true detective, bit of Game of Thrones.  Ace.  Bed.

Didn't get up til after 6am which buggered up plans for cycling to work. Took dog up town, no papers in paper shop, marvellous, back for 6.45 - porridge and off to work.  As we'd got someone doing photos today I thought I'd got and plant the bike in the bike shed! Subterfuge and special ops - got me wanting to get out on the bike again, though.  So went out for a spin on t'bike when got home.  Only 7 miles so not too bad for a start over.  Hopefully get out again before end of week

The usual dog walking and papers mullarky.  1.5lbs on at group.  Reap as ye sow (snow?)


Thursday 29th December 2015
Up early. Dog walked, papers fetched.  Snow given for today so that's been the topic all day. Got home for about 6.30pm not too bad a drive at all.   Home, tea, dog walks, snow fed up with it already.

Got up at  6:45!!! Yikes that;s late, dog walked paper fetched, brekkie on the go.  Into the office for 8.45 so pleased with that after much 20mph driving and arsefaces pulling out on me and then driving 5mph slower than I was going.  Tosspots.

Saturday 31st January 2014
Up earlyish.  Dog walked, paper fetched.  Piccy B.  No golf as course closed.  Lots of work on the computer instead.  Good stuff.  Took pooch a good walk along the river and found a new way back before you get to Sides Mill Farm.

Pooch filfthy when we go back so she had a shower and shampoo - she hates that.  All good stuff, bed earlyish.  Phil gone out boozing with his mates in Derby.

Sunday 1st February 2015
Phil back in at 3.30am.  Hickuping like a misfiring ending at 4am, talking into the big white telephon at 4.45am.   Great start to the day.  Up at 7.30am.  Took Lily on a new walk.  Parking at the cemetery and then walking in big loop - the main aim is to keep her clean for as long as possible!!

Anyroad up, main aim of the day is to get the base dug out for the greenhouse, am itching to get busy with it. So marked it out first using cunningly placed solar lights for markers.

Then set out to dig off all the turf which I've put round the back in the main to sort of level out the bit of grass on the back that is a pig to mow in summers.  Hopefully it will help a wee bit.  Have kept a little bit of turf back just in case.

Have a cunning plan for how to get the cement / concrete base in bang on level.  So that's next weekend's job unless the wee lad lends a hand which he didn't seemed inclined to yesterday, bless.

Took missus for a quick shopping session in the afternoon and then took pooch a last walk up the golf course before it went dark.

17th Green a little bit unplayable - full moon - good for sea-fishing!

Nice sunset at the end of the day
