Wind blew all night and kept us awake through the night as Storm Imogen hit the island. Took pooch for a walk but she wanted to go nowhere near sea so walked down meself and had a look. Spray coming up the slipway a good 50 foot about sea level. Awesome sight. We set off for home about 11:30 and got back in good time. One stop at Holywell on the way home - about an hour quicker than going as well.

Up early. Dog walked, paper fetched. Off to me mum and dads to do a few jobs. Cleaned the solar panels, conservatory, did a bit of roof repair on the shed that's been there since I was a nipper, had a fire. In general really enjoyed meself. Got back in the afternoon. Took pooch another walk, tea and then went to bed early, got up briefly to take dog a walk then back to bed.

Up early. Dog walked, paper fetched. Got a text saying golf at 9:30 if still on holiday so allotment plans cancelled!! Good round as well - parred first, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh and only bogied the other two so a steady 21 points in stableford format. Golf course is a bit wet but another grand day for golf and nice to play well for a change.

| 39 for front nine and 21 points scored - pleased with that. |

| New water hazard on the eighth! |
Got home and as weather was nice did a ton of stuff in the greenhouse - need to get me paraffin heater going really as it's looking like it's going to be cold over next few days. Took pooch a big walk up the golf course and got half a dozen balls before it went dark, Then loaded the oven and fetched Lucy and bosskat from up town. About 5.00 dozens of downards started appearing so bosskat whizzed off to see it being goaled. Went to bed early as very tired again. All in all a darned good day I reckon.

Friday 12th February 2016
Early to work again. Took three developers to visit Hollies' group. Put on a pound and a half according to the scales - am putting this down to not being good and weighing in the
Saturday 13th February 2016
Up early. Dog walk, papers fetched. Nipped up town to get missus some strawberries in a heart shaped box from Co-op. Nipped down to lotty and chopped the raspberry canes down.

| Where the raspbobs will be in August time! |

| The canes - Ray lard has suggested using em for pea stick?? |
All good stuff. Golf at 12:30. Steady but nothing like as good as Wednesday when I won the 9 hole stablefore ha ha - 3 balls to the good. Home about 4pm after a coffee in the clubhouse.
Sunday 14th February 2016
Up at 7:30!!! Dog walked. In greenhouse got little heater going after seeing how well Harry Seed's worked. Got me peas started off in two little bits of guttering that should be easier to transport. Sorted the security light that had stopped working - the trip switch had gone that supplied electricity to Phil's shed. So had to clear out a load of tat from my shed to get to it. During which tidying I found a tenner in an old rucksack that I used for trail running - Rugby Rover, Grindleford gallop etc.etc. All good stuff. Took a load of cardboard and various tat down to recycling which was a good move. While tidying up the shed I got the bike out and did a few miles - backside is feeling it now though I must admit. Over to me mum and dad's for tea, Jubbly. Back home and in bed for 9pm! Helicopter circling over golf course was intriguing.
