Normal service is resumed

I'm back and a good weekend was had, well, in the main it was, unfortunately the prime purpose of our visit to my parents didn't quite work out as those involved would have chosen but all is not lost, there is a 'plan B' afoot in the near future, which should be more successful.

Aside from all of that there was much chatter, gossip and catching up to be done, much hilarity, much watching of rugby for Fletch, copious amounts of good food, Fletch cooked Sunday lunch for everyone, and an all round generally relaxing, fun time was enjoyed. My brother also managed to make for a visit which was cool, though I'm sure his main intent was to impress on me just how wrong I was when I decided not to buy an iPhone a month or two back and instead stick with Nokia! As he walked through the door he handed me his bright shiny new specimen, with free reign to 'play'....and play I did, obsessively, whilst hearing the the advice of others a few weeks back saying 'I told you so' ringing in my head! What a bit of kit!...sorry, but you can be in love with an inanimate object! ;o)

And that was it, back home last night and back to reality, 'Himself' away on business again and for me back to pointless job hunting, one person microwave dinners and this afternoon the dentist, well the dental hygienist but that's barely any better! Joy. You know how much I love the dentist!

It seems strangely quiet here now, it's amazing how quickly you get un-used to stuff. I am well practiced at spending days on end on my own, but having been in the company of others all weekend, suddenly to be on my Jack again seems a bit 'ugh' (that's a technical term!).

iPhone is brilliant. I did try and guide you there. :o)

Also empathy on the 'alone' bit...been there, done that. Wasn't impressed. Keep your chin up..... all things come to he\she that waits.....
