Monday 2nd November 2015 to Sunday 8th November 2015

Monday 2nd November 2015
Up early.  Dog walked, papers fetched. Watered greenhouse (still got some stuff on the go, oh yes).  Work for about 8.30.   Busy day.  Practice cancelled due to lack of commitment/memory by some folks.  Home for about 6pm.  Dog walk.  Went to help Phil take some bits off his trailor, get a load of manky rubbish tidied up and get his trailer turned round for monring.


Tuesday 3rd November 2015 
Up at 5.55.  Dog walked, papers fetched.  Off to work at 7.20, got there 8:30 due to somebody parking their lorry across the A38 apparently. Found out that travel reports apart from being too infrequent and bloody useless are delivered by Chiara Glorioso on Radio Derby whose name definitely makes up for the crappy late reports.   The perfect storm would be to have Glorioso deliver the travel then Sara Blizzard do the weather - that would be great.   Anyroad - a really busy day. Got home about 6pm.  Dog walk.  Tea. Watched more of the enjoyable "You, me and the Apocalypse" with Rob Lowe and all sorts of folks you'd not expect to be in the same thing.  Bed not long after 10pm right tired.

Wednesday 4th November 2015
Woke up and out by 5:50am.  Dog walked, papers fetched.  Into the office for 8am to check on a theory and I think I was right!  All good stuff.   Have finalised my fantasy football league team for the weekend:


Got home watched a new episode of You, me and the Apocolypse - dead wierd, dead enjoyable.

Thursday 5th November 2015
Up at 5.45.  Some gits walking their dogs at 12:30 didn't help a sleepful night as it set our dog off for about half an hour.  Inconsiderate halfwits.  Anyway got most of the papers, Times wasn't in again.   Back hoke in decent enough time, still no rehearsal. hmmm

Friday 6th November 2015
Bit of an issue - dress shirt for Saturday don't ruddy fit.  So tried Tesco - no joy (but did get 8 bags of compost for 48p a bag so not a complete loss).  Tried Burtons but they only do them at Chesterfield or Derby which is no good for me I ain't travelling.  Local shop in Ashbourne has one but I ain't paying £32 for one (cheapskate that I am).  Never mind, have a plan B.  Back home in not bad time.  Bed fariyl early.

Saturday 7th November 2015
Up early dog walked.  Papers fetched.  Piccy B Brekkie.   Took Lucy and El Poocher over to Darley Dale.  Got home and set off for Birmingham before noon!!  Into Hotel at about 1:30 due to road works and missing one damn turn. In pub by about 2:30 after finding pub we used to go to has been knocked down.  Off to Slimming World Woman of Year 2015 at the ICC for 5:15!!!  On a table with the gals from HR and the Rathbone clan - top night - fantastic life-stories - Jason Donnovan wasn't a bad host although was a bit disappointed to find he's a year younger than I am (not sure why).
Yes, I know need to shift a few stone.
Jason Donovan, no less. 


This doesn't really do justice to how many folks were there 


Saw loads of folks, some of whom I'd not seen for some time so a great night.  Left a bit after midnight - fireworks still going off at 1am - what's that all about.  Nicely sober though so that wsas nice.

Sunday 8th November 2015
Woke up at 6.30, breakfast at 7:40, on road for about 8.15 and back home by about 9:20 - all good stuff.  Did a bit down the lotty - got me garlic in, weeded two beds covered one up, started putting pathways down.   Need to get second water butt sorted out as first one on number 7 is now full and overflowing.   Brought back spuds, onions, sweetcorn, cabbage, a butternut squash that was left behind somehow - lost some garlic somewhere - am hoping it's still in Shed 7.

The bottom bed is covered up now so should keep weeds off, you can see the path idea on this one too

Weeded bed two 

Got me garlic in and onions already sprouting up nicely. 

Over to Darley Dale for lunch and then back home for about 5:30.  Up at Phil's bosses to watch Alton Towers fireweorks at 7pm ish.   All good stuff.  Bed early at 9:21
