Geting there

Hi,

Got a night at home, well my place. Home is getting to be more and more where Tracy is than where I am.

Got to take dad for his chemo tomorrow at Clatterbridge hospital, so I'm staying at mine so that I don't have to get up at silly O'clock tomorrow morning drive from Neston to Wallasey then to Clatterbridge so that we can get thru' rush hour and get him there on time for his dose of jollop at 09:20. Look it up on Google maps, I did. Now it's no surprise about the miles I was doing on an L plate and why this car has not long left in this world

So this evening I've been in the kitchen and in front of the mac looking at photos and vid clips (some with sound and others without). Getting rid of the blury but keeping in some that you would probably bin. All this is for a slide snow that I'll be putting on DVD for the family, the rest of you will have to content yourselves with about 5 from each of the groups I kept, with the occasional vid clip.

But just to keep you going...

I know T is going to mince me for this....




But it's no worse than this one. This photograph has familiar (to me) people who have suddenly morphed into "Jake the peg" and one of Zaphods mothers, see if you can spot them...


...it's uncanny.

Now before I go here is something that looks prety but is evil and so very wrong, I took this vid during a change in driving. I almost needed driving lessons again on our return to the UK. And don't get me started about roundabouts!!!

Back from France and a new phone to boot

Got the nokia 5800 and loving it, except for this months bill, but the nice man at Vodafone sorted it out and took off 33.23 quid of a 47 quid one that I got from surfing the net on said device when I was told it would be free, they forgot to tell me it was free only in the UK! But it's all better now.

And now here's a pic I took with my new toy. It was taken from the garden of the villa we stayed at in Laurabuc in the south of France, the place we stayed at was called La Periole.

Bigger post to come when I've edited the pics and got my mac. Doing this on the 5800.
