Day 3179 (13/09/2018)

It was a busy day in the office and then early beans on toast as I had a pensioners meeting in the evening.

Day 3178 (12/09/2018)

I was awake early, so was working shortly after 5am and managed to achieve a lot during the day.

In the afternoon me & Thomas went to the leisure centre to play badminton, it was close but he beat me 3:0.

We are aiming to play every week, which should help me get in shape.

Day 3177 (11/09/2018)

It was an early start as we had to be in Bristol to help arrange my mother-in-laws funeral.

I thought it would all be done in an hour but they took a few hours, at which time I was sat hatting to my sister-in-law, who did us a ll a nice lunch afterwards.

Then back home and time to catch-up with work (again).

Day 3176 (10/09/2018)

We had a nice breakfast / lunch.

Then back to work, with lots to do and some enthusiasm.

Day 3174 & 3175 (08 & 09/09/2018)

The weekend is here, with my wife back up to Bristol to help clear out her mums room, whilst I get new tyres on her car and do some work.

Luckily it only need three new tyres, a wash and a full tank of fuel, so over £400 in total.

In the evening we were joined by Lee and had some nice pizzas delivered.

Sunday we had a nice family breakfast, then went to visit my parents. In the afternoon I did a nice Sunday roast, beef for us, chicken for Thomas and vegi quorn roll for Lee. Honestly it was no trouble to do three different dinners..

 

 

 

Yum Yum Yum :-)

Day 3173 (07/09/2018)

It was nice to get a proper nights sleep, in a bed.

Rather annoyingly my new blue suede desert boots broke, even though I had only wearing them 3 times.

I couldn't send them back as I bought them years ago but couldn't wear them as Prince Harry had started wearing them at the same time. 

So I bought some supper glue and it seems to have worked.

I harvested a few more things from the garden.

It is just about the end of the tomatoes but the chillies are never ending.

In the evening I did a bit of a Mexican meal.

With Prawns and then Turkey to put in wraps. 

 

Very nice.

Day 3172 (06/09/2018)

We stayed with Mary thru the night and in the morning she passed away, peacefully with my wife by her side.

Obviously a very sad time for my wife and her family.

After spending hours at the home arranging things we went home to relax. To help I made a nice gnocchi diner for the family. 

Day 3171 (05/09/2018)

Up incredibly early to get to London on the train.

I really prefer first class but there was no budget and it was way too expensive; however the train was fairly empty until Reading, so it was not too uncomfortable.
 

Then in top London and walking past this building to our meeting.

Stopping for lunch in a local pub, where I had a scotch-egg and Jeffery Archer was sat another table.

Late in the afternoon I got a text from my wife who was with her um, to say things were not good, so I jumped on a train to Bristol and with the aide of my brother I went to the nursing home to be with my wife and her mum.

Day 3170 (04/09/2018)

Up early with lots to do as I'm in London tomorrow for a meeting.

Day 3169 (03/09/2018)

Back to work, with plenty to do and still on the beans on toast.

Day 3167 & 3168 (01 & 02/09/2018)

A new month a new Kylie calendar photo.

A weekend when I had plenty of work to do, so was up early and then had a nice breakfast with my wife.

Also had to write a few things about Data Protection, can't believe how many of these things I have done over the last few years.

Cut the grass and tidied the garden in the afternoon.

Then I watered it with the sprinkler for a few hours as it is still fairly dry.

Did a lovely steak meal in the evening, ours with garlic and mushrooms and both with herbs from the garden.

 

 

Yum Yum Yum :-)

Sunday I did a nice roast chicken dinner.

 

 

Very tasty.

Day 3166 (31/08/2018)

A busy day and a good meeting with Dace in the afternoon. We have quite an exciting project or two coming up.

I got paid out today from my latest legal victory against the police, so that's 5-0 to me and quite a few £'s :-)

In the evening I had my posh "Duchy" beans but added pepperoni & HP to make sure they tasted more like real peoples beans.

 

 

Day 3165 (30/08/2018)

Back at work, with lots to do.

In the afternoon I went for a much needed haircut :-)

Honestly I was happy but I just wasn't showing it. Although apparently my trying to put someone at their ease and chuckling was mistakenly reported as "this wasn't in a lighthearted way but a very sinister way" which I feel is a bit unfair :-)

Day 3164 (29/08/2018)

It was a fairly early start, dropping Thomas off at College, where he has signed up for a course, so he can go to University. Then off to Bristol to speak to the lawyers about one of my ongoing cases, with other victims, which went on much longer than we had anticipated. 

So it was evening before I cam back and we finished of the pizza, with some chips & salad.

Day 3163 (28/08/2018)

We had a nice breakfast in the morning and then later my wife went to visit her mother.

In the evening I made some Jamie Oliver flatbread, with yogurt, so it was safe for Thomas, to make little pizza's.

 

   

OK the flatbread weren't as perfect as Jamie's, probably due to the fact that I didn't bother weighing anything or watching the video to remind me how to do it but they were alright.

Then I did a nice selection of pizza toppings.

 

 
Very nice, with a bit of salad.
