Monday 28th September 2015 to Sunday 4th October 2015

Monday 28th September 2015
Up early. Dog walked, papers fetched, off to work.  Loads done in the office.  Back home 6.15ish.  Mum has been admitted to Callow so am rather worried about that but will go visit tomorrow.  Big walk with the dog, couldn't let her off the lead as much as the field was full of other folks' dogs but nevermind she got a big walk.

A bit of telly and then off to bed 10.20ish

Tuesday 29th September 2015
Kept waking up as Phil needed to be up at 5am.  Woke him up at 4.55 then went back to bed for a bit.  Took dog out at 5.55am.  Watered toms, brekko and off to work.  A good day - Dad's fetched mum home, they've found out what the problem is (what my dad said it was days ago).  Home for 6.15.  Tea. Dog walked. Dark.  Naff-all

Almost dark at 7pm

Wednesday 30th September 2015
Up at 5:55. Dog walked, papers fetched (well 66% of, Express wasn't in). Went to Lotty to water the new stuff, fetched a bag of beans at same time.  Into the office a bit later at 8:30 but still in before most folks so pleased with that.  Helped out with some interviewing at work then went to Aldi then went over to see me mum who is on the mend which is great.  Got home for a bit after 9pm in time to watch next episode of Midwinter of the Spirit which is proper wierd, it's wierd in as much as I think the female lead of it used to be a young girl on Brookside donkey's years ago?  Watched champions league highlights then bed about 11pm - way too late!

Thursday 1st October 2015
Phil's alarm went off at 5am, then 5:05, then 5:10 so I went and asked him to switch the bugger off.  Went back to bed and didn't wake until 6:20 so behind before I even start.  Dog walked and back home for a bit after 7pm, in the office by 8:20.  Not best pleased.  Have worked for Slimming World for 24 years today.  Got home about 6.15.  Took the pooch for a walk in Mappleton for a change - not sure if I'll go again.  Need the boss to drop me off and pick me up perhaps next time.   Watched Dodgeball (again) and bed a bit after 11pm again - way too late.

Friday 2nd October 2015
Got up at 5:30.  Papers, dog walk.  Toms watered.  Office for 8.15.  All good stuff.  Had to leave work early so bosskat could go and keep an eye on me mum.  Dog walks and telly.   Bosskat back for 11pm.

Saturday 3rd October 2015
Up early.  Dog walk. Papers fetched.  A couple of hours on the lotty weeding.  Back home fetched piccy B for me and Lucy.  11.20 catching bus to Derby for the Brentford game which we'd go on to win 2-0.




Flag-happy linesman was a bit of a pain to say the least. 
Back home for 6.15, plenty of time to walk the pooch and get ready for the disappointment that was Australia thrashing England at rugby.  Never mind, at least we got the ashes.

Bed about 10pm after a final quick dog walk.

Sunday 4th October 2015.
Up early. Dog walk. Loads of jobs in garden clearing away sunflowers, sweet peas, potatoes, planting daffodils and tulips.  Put a load of sweet peas in pots for next year.  All good stuff, late morning took the pooch for a big walk (well big for a dog with short legs anyway).  Saw geese flying west (not sure what that's all about).  Let dog off the lead for the most part which she loves, absolutely loves - still don't trust her 100% but it will come.



After walk went to Cross at Cauldon Lowe for lunch.  Very nice.  Back home we went down to lotty.  Strimmed and mowed.  Harvested a ton of runner beans, spuds, cabbage, the last (again) of the raspberries and butternut squashes.  Got some massive pumpkins ready just debating when to take them (before the first frost is the key);



Back home.  Lily gets second big walk of the day. 6pm and the sun really low.  Hate this time of year (it's rubbish).


Anyway, back home, polished shoes for tomorrow.  Did a few bits and bobs but went to bed at 9pm as was cream crackered.




Monday, 21 September 2015

Monday 21st September 2015 to Sunday 27th September 2015

Monday 21st September 2015
Up at 5:30am.  Walked dog and fetched papers.  Watered greenhouse.  Into office before 8am.  Straight-forward drive in.  All good. Got home about 6pmish.  Tea then took dog walk.  Then spent two and a bit more hours trying to get a firewall setup for a project in October.  Made very little progress but I do know that LAN goes in port 1, WAN in port 2 and WLAN in port 3.  Other than that a good waste of a couple of hours.   Derby managed a goal-less draw with third-placed Burnley so not end of World I suppose but glad I'd not spent a load of money on a 0-0 at home on a Monday night!

Tuesday 22nd September 2015
Up at 5.30.  Raining so went to bed for another 10 minutes or so,  Still raining so took dog out anyway.  Into office for just gone 8am.  Back home for 6pm, quick tea then off to football training with Lucy and the missus and the pooch.  Lily dog loves Osmaston Polo Ground.




Back home for 7:30ish - by crikey it drops dark quick.  Watched some telly - Mountain Goats seems to be TV of choice at the moment which is grand.   Bed for about 10:30

Wednesday 23rd September 2015
Woke about 4am got up proper at 5:50.  Dog walked, papers fetched. Into office for about 8am.  Everything on rails. Got home in good time.  Tea.  Dog walked. Down lotty in heavy drizzle brought a load of runner beans, a butternut squash and some raspberries back.  Did a load of work with the firewall project - definitely making progress but by crikey is it complicated!  Watcher Midwinter of The Spirit - which was good stuff - touches of True Detective series 1 about it but good all the same.  Bed about 10:30

Thursday 24th September 2015
Woke at 5am, got up at 5:50am!   Dog walked, papers fetched into the office for 8am.  More tidying up to do.

Friday 25th September 2015
Up early.  Dog walked.  Papers.  Work.  Nipped to Tesco at lunchtime got some twin packs of pringles with the Now TV vouchers on em.  So could watch the mighty Rams at some point (tomorrow technically!).

Saturday 26th September 2015 
Woke up at 7am!   Lie-in.  Dog walked, papers fetched.  Piccy B.  Clearing the shed out until 11:30 for car boot merchandise.  11.50  getting computer working so could watch the mighty Rams take on MK Dons. After Derby won by a flattering 3-1 I did lawns and what have you.

Sunday 27th September 2015
Up early again.  Noone needing waking up apart from the boss of the world who was going car booting.  Dog walked twice.  Did sausage cobs for Lucy and Phil about 9am and then went to Alstonefield for the car boot.  Sold a couple of things while I minded the stall so boss-kat was happy.
Got back and washed the car, let dog out.

Lunch at the Grouse in Darley Dale.  Very nice, mum not very well at all though.  Back home, little dog very pleased to see us so talk her a big walk in the meadow - we've started letting her off the lead and she loves it - still worries me but she's a good wee girl really.

Pooch demonstrating that three feet on the ground is all you need.

A tiny dog in a massive field. 

After walk we went down lotty to get more beans and a couple of butternut squashes.  Brought raspberries and two butternut squashes back too - all good stuff.

Pumpkins pretty much ready - might get them before September's out. 

Went to bed at 9.45.  All good stuff woke up to have a look at the Blood Moon eclipse at 1:30 but couldn't find the moon and didn't have quite enough commitment to find it if I'm honest.  I reckon it was in the south and as we've not got a window that looks out that way I thought I'd better return to bed!




Monday, 14 September 2015

Monday 14th September 2015 to Sunday 20th September 2015

Monday 14th September 2015
Woke up at 4am, got up at 5.30.  Dog walked, papers fetched, greenhouse watered, into office for 7.45.   All on rails, pretty much. Back home for about 6pm.  Tea, dog walked. Soundbar sorted out (more or less).  Sorted Phil's tea.  Did a bit of work on a network install for October.

Sonicwall 2040 Firewall Switch - the dogs wotsits don't go far enough!!
Watched a bit of Doc Martin.  Bed before 10:30

Tuesday 15th September 2015
Up at 5.40.  Dog walked, papers fetched.  Work for 8.30 and best part of a hour and a half to get into the office due to a lorry breaking down on J28 roundabout. Pain in the arse to start the day off.  Odd day in the office.  Home for about 6pm.   Tea, then got Phil to drop me off at Osmaston where missus had taken Lucy for football practice.  Walked the pooch and as I'd got the missus with me let the pooch off the lead to play fetch.  Great stuff.  Back home for about 8pm.  Listened to first half of Reading vs Derby, took pooch out at half time, listened to second half and Ince got the goal to give Derby second win on the road in successive games.  All good stuff, asleep by about 10;15 I reckon.

Wednesday 16th September 2015
Woke up at 3am.  Struggled back to sleep then got up late at 5.47.  Quick walk up town with pooch, papers fetched. Got Lucy up a bit earlier than usual.  Into office for 8am. Home a bit earlier.  Tea. Dog walk to cemetery and back.  Out on bike for first time in a while - need to make it a bit of a habit.  Watched Cradle to Grave then watched Later With Jools and saw Squeeze doing the theme tune which was good.  Then watched something about Brits fighting against Isis which was very sad. Bed about 11:30pm - way to late.

Thursday 17th September 2015
Up at 5:50, only just in time to take pooch out and get papers.  Got into to work for 8.10 after getting some juice on the way. Back home for about 6pm.  Tea then dog walk.  Then went with Phil to admire his hedge cutting work.  Marvellous.  Then out on bike again for second night running nine miles to Okeover Park and back - saw a barn owl for the second night running, there used to be one near Callow Hall which is in the vicinity but to see it two nights running is pretty good.  Bit of telly - Cradle to Grave then bed about 10:45pm.


Friday 18th September 2015
Woke up at 5am on the dot.  Went back to sleep and got up late at 6:05.  Dog walked, papers fetched into the office for just gone 8am.  Quite pleased - had the first Post-Fish Marillion album on in the car and it's still a good listen.  Went for a ride round on the bike - helped in rescuing a dog on the way up Mafield road.  Watched England's first match on telly - wasn't entirely impressed.

Saturday 19th September 2015
Up early, dog walked, papers fetched.  Serviced me fishing kit as that will be going on the shelf for Winter I reckon.


Did the greenhouse.   Subscribed for Times six-day - three months for the price of one and then £5 a week thereafter - will review whether I think it'll work in a month or so. Fetched Piccy B brekko for Lucy and meself.  Strimmed front and back then off for golf at 12.00am with John and Doug.  First half was a bit rubbish but played back nine quite well parred 10th, 13th, 14th,16th  and bogied the others apart from 15 where I lost a ball at the side of the green somewhere - crappy rough.
 Have started letting the pooch off when we walk her in the big field.  So far she's not let me down

Sunday 20th September 2015
Up early.  Dog walked - Geese flying South for the winter - it's a sign...

Down to Lotty on bike about 8am.  Cleared the raised bed that had peas in it.  Took a load of rubbish down to the tip.  Back for 10:10am to give the boy a lift to work.  Back for a bit after 11am.  Off to the Okeover Arms at Mappleton for Sylvira's do.  Back home.  Dog walk. Not much else done.

Up really early.  Dog walked, papers, everything done, into office for 7:30am.  Got a ruddy ton done and away for 4.20pm so could take Lucy to training with ex England International Sue Smith.

Ashbourne Aztecs with Sue Smith of Doncaster Rovers and England Ladies' football fame


Dropped Lucy off at home and at 8pm in near darkness whizzed down Lotty to pick up spuds I'd left to dry, put em in trays and then into shed to dry further.  They will be going in bags in a day or two I reckon.

Spudulika City


Tuesday 8th September 2015
Up less early.  Dog walked, papers fetched.  Stuck in poxy traffic on the A52 for fifteen minutes.  Tesco for fuddle then into office for 8.20.  Pleased with that overall.  Busy day.  Home for about 6pm.  Tea then off walking and blackberrying with the bride and the small pooch - miserable dull day and almost dark when we got home about 7:30pm.  Saw some Canadian Geese in the fields below which was cool.    Watched New Tricks and some American Tat that Phil had on.   Spent some time looking for a book for Lucy.   Off to bed about 11pm!!  Way too late.

Wednesday 9th September 2015
Woke up a bit before 5am - way too early.  Got up proper at 5:50am.  Dog walked, papers fetched. Polished LuLu's shoes for School.  Got a 28w Double D bulb out of a light fitting in the bathroom - damn bulb needs replacing - got one from ScrewFixDirect.  Back home fitted it in five minutes - illumination again.   Spent half an hour trying to find some documentation for Phil to no avail but did find two old PPI documents.  Good stuff.  Reading in bed at 9pm as got a bit sick of watching Phil's American crap on telly or bake-off in the other room.

Thursday 10th September 2015
Awake at 5am, up at 5.40am.  Dog walked, papers fetched and back home by 6.30, in the office before 8am - everything on rails this morning.


Friday 11th September 2015
Off today.  Ha ha.  Up early anyway, dog walked, papers fetched.  Down lotty until 8:30.  Over to John Pye to fetch a soundbar that has something missing - lesson learned don't ever bid on something you've not had a bloody good look at. Never mind have ordered the missing bit for £14 bloody quid.  Took pooch out for a final walk then off to Wales.  Got there in 3 hours 15mins.  Bloody marvellous.  Settled into Cottage quick and beer o'clock time.   Fished the night tide in the rain not a bite.

Saturday 12th September 2015
Chucked it down all night but rain eased up about 8:15am.  Breakfast from the butty van.  Over to Amlwch, quick visit to Telboys for some weights and some bait.  Had a look at the breakwater and folks already in the best spot so we went to Llanbadrig where I had bites but caught nowt while our Andrew caught 3 Wrasse, 3 pollack, 1 mackerel.  Such is life.





Back to base.  Dug more bait for the evening.



Wild big tide coming in, fish not coming in.

Sunday 13th September 2015
Up about 6am went down to the beach and recovered one rig lost the previous night.

Church Bay on going home day

Heron still hunting in the same pools


Tidied up and car loaded ready for the drive home. Breakfast off the van.  Got home in under 3.5 hours - magic.

Monday 31st August 2015 to Sunday 6th September 2015

Monday 31st August 2015
Woke up early but as it's a bank holiday I didn't bother getting out of bed until 7am.  Fetched papers with the pooch in the rain.  Been chucking it down from small hours.  Doing a few jobs on the laptop this morning.  Saw this chap on Vintage TV a few weeks ago called Jon Allen, bizarrely he is doing a date at Alstonefield Village Hall so I might just have to go to that one - we'll see.   Did a bit on the lotty in the rain - put a shelf up in Shed 7, moved the door latch to accommodate the big water barrels. Weeded some of 13 and banged some lime down for the brassicas that will be going in shortly.    Took missus to John Pye Auctions in the afternoon to look at lots.  We'll probably end up paying over the odds on some tat but such is life.  As Phil was doing his Citizen Siddall thing and boss kat was out and about I had to cycle down to the Farm and do the chickens for Phil's godparents.  Absoluetely drenched but such is life - got half a dozen eggs! Bed late waiting for the citizen.


Tuesday 1st September 2015
Hell's teeth it's September.  Wierdly August's solar generation was only 4% down on  1st year estimate for August so not a bad result considering how grey and miserable it seemed to be.   Up at 5.45.  Dog walked, papers fetched, into the office for 8am.  On rails.  Good day - solving a problem but possibly uncovering new ones!  Tea about 7pm then down to the farm to do them hens - another half-dozen eggs.

Wednesday 2nd September 2015

Thursday 3rd September 2015
Up a bit before 6am.  Dog walked, papers fetched, greenhouse watered.  Dropped two old garden furniture chairs off at the allotment.  Into the office for 8.20am. Another mega busy one. Back home for 6pm.  Picking up slabs near Tean for the allotment with Phil and his tractor by 6.30.  Back home again by 7:30, tea then down to do the hens took Lucy so she could get some eggs, trouble is by 8 o'clock it was dark and the hens retreat to their perches.  Bed by 10pm back will hurt tomorrow and no mistake.

Friday 4th September 2015
Woke at 5am thanks to Phil's alarm.  Didn't get up til 5:50am though.  Dog walked, papers fetched, greenhouse done, into office for 8.20 after getting some bits for a birthday fuddle at the office.  n way home I followed a motorbike with pillion passenger and a single wheel trailer attached - have never seen anything quite like it  - very Heath Robinson affair.




Saturday 6th September 2015
Up early, dog walk, papers, piccy B at 8.20!!  Did a few greenhouse jobs.  Worked on a network install for later in the year - bought 4 access points and a router for under a tenner!   Ace.   Anyway, that took a while to get going but it will work I think.  Did a bit of web work.  Down lotty with missus - pulling up me spuds and stuff.  O

Sunday 7th September 2015
Up early again.  Dog walked, bit of brekko. Down the lotty for 8.15am.  Did loads - pulling spuds, garlic, fennel then left about 12.15ish for sausage and bacon cob.   Fun and games with tractors in the afternoon giving Phil a hand - nice when you rise to the level of last resort to give someone a tow!  Over to me mum and dad's very late for tea.  Dog got a little walk up Whitworth Road, Red Arrows flew over twice (they really didn't have to do that).

Wednesday 26th August 2015
Woker up at 4:30.  Rain panning down, most irritating.   Took dog at just gone 6am, Still raining so put her little coat on, hee hee.  Can tell Summer is done by the fact that Sainsbury's sign lighting is on when I walk past now.  Seems to have gone quick - have not even been camping yet.

Fetched papers.  Into office for 8am.  Tea, Dog walk, hens fed.  Down lotty.  Weeding, runner beans, french beans, broad beans, raspberries harvested.  Walked home.  Watched a bit of Outside Edge - a reet blast from the past.

Monday 17th August 2015 to Sunday 23rd August 2015

Monday 17th August 2015
Back to work to do a bit of catching up, same with Tuesday 18th August 2015.

Wednesday 18th August 2015
Recommencing the holiday - took missus to Uttoxeter, came back 2pm and it started to rain so allotment work put off.

Thursday 19th August 2015
Up early dog walked etc.  Down lotty got lots and lots harvested.   Mowed round both plots. Did a bit of weeding.  Plenty more to do.  Looks like plot 5 has gone to seed wonder if he's giving it up?  Went a walk and got a tub of early blackberries need to get out again as it looks like being another good year for them.

Friday 20th August 2015
Up early.  Dog walked three times. off to London.  Pics to follow but visited (in order) Buckingham Palace and saw brass band, guards and all sorts going on, Trafalgar Square (don't know why we've not been there properly before, Leicester Square for a big dinner, Covent Garden, Oxford Street, Tower Bridge then back to Euston.  It was expensive in parts but we drove to Lichfield Trent Valley and took London Midland service into London with a day travelcard for London Transport and the cost was £80 for 4 on a family travelcard and you only have a ticket each to carry - thought that was damn good value!  Got home just as Birmingham vs Derby game was winding up - four draws for Derby so far is not looking too good.

At Buckinghbam Palace (with twenty thousand others)
Trafalgar Square

Coldstream Guards whizzing down the Mall

Three posers at Nelson's Column

Leicester Square

My feet on the glass walkway above Tower Bridge (have run over that bridge three times, did you know!)

View from London Bridge - if you wondered why there's a crane shortage, look no further!

Saturday 22nd August 2014
Up early.  Dog walked. Did a little bit at the lotty. Golf at lunch time - only played 14 holes as group in front very slow and wouldn't let us through so went up 13 instead of playing 9th.  Karma got them though as it absoluetly hammered it down with rain when on way back home.  Serves em right. Chippy Tea.

Sunday 23rd August 2014
Up early.  Dog walked.   Down lottie - got some runner beans and some french beans, a celeriac (no idea of spelling) and some spuds (just one plant resulted in the haul below!), did a bit of weeding and then back home for 9:30.




Took pooch for her 6 week grooming and did a bit of shopping in Belper.  Coffee and a bacon buttie at morrisons very nice indeed.   Problem is that you can barely see difference now we keep her in good nick but you can feel the difference.

Before


After


Got a load of bargains in Morrisons and B+M all good stuff!  Down lottie



Saturday 8th August 2015 to Sunday 23rd August 2015

Saturday 8th August 2015 - Saturday 16th August 2015
We're all going on a Summer Holiday.  Anglesey again, five and a half hour trip again (but got there).  Didn't go fishing first couple of nights went with our Andrew to a couple of marks but nothing being caught apart from odd dogfish.  At Llam Carw we saw porpoises.  Fishing was very indifferent although Phil caught "one sea-bass and one dogfish, doo dar, doo dar" after arriving about half an hour earlier on the Tuesdsay.  Got out on the kayaks when sea was calmer although still didn't catch nowt on them beggars.
First day on the beach - moody with the tide rushing in
