The wizard aurora site seems to be taking off nicely now as does its sister site. Ive been viewing baby care vids and bits to get jenned up ready for bump to put in a show. Been a nice four days off and missing vic already despite her having left only yesterday. Spent a bit of time at the lodge packing my possessions and also discarding any crap I dont need anymore. Considering what I did have four years ago I have much less now. It packs all into a medium sized wardrobe. Its good though, cos you cant take it with you. Just a few bits for emergencies of to keep me busy after retiring in decades to come.

Well it’s all official now. The time capsule I hid last year with Moo is now a pukka registered tinful of history. Question is will it be found beforehand? I think it’s in a pretty secure location. Only accidental discovery by decorators or builders will surely get that, unless the entire buildings knocked down.
Inspired by this id really love to do three more. One for me, Vic n the kids and another especially for our as yet unborn baby.
The biggest challenge is keeping it a secret from all those not involved. I wonder whom the lucky person who finds it will be? Especially with me resigning this year and us relocating to Cambeltown. Good luck and whomever you are!
Queen are my favourite band of all time. There are so many great tracks over their albums i defy anybody not to know one of them. We all have our favourite songs but each band member Rodger Taylor, Freddie Mercury, Brian May and John Deacon each wrote many of the tracks so here I am going to list my top three favourite songs by each member.
John Deacon –
Another One Bites The Dust
I Want To Break Free
You’re My Best Friend
Roger Taylor –
A Kind Of Magic
Radio GaGa
These Are The Days Of Our Lives
Brian May –
We Will Rock You
Tie Your Mother Down
Who Wants To Live Forever
Freddie Mercury –
Bohemian Rhapsody
Somebody To Love
Death On Two Legs (Dedicated to …)
Interestingly enough… about two thirds of my personal top ten favourite queen tracks are in that lot. Missing little nuggets like Breakthru and Scandal. Enjoy your Easter!
They saying goes ‘fortune favours the brave’. With what I am set to do I really hope this rings true as it is a huge leap of faith. I am reading some truly inspirational posts about people whom have done this at some point of their lives. The difference here being I will definately have a roof over my head when I get there whereas they had just a car. Indeed, my own heroes Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone started out in a similar way. The most important thing out of it all would be securing some sort of job within three months. Im ready and willing to be a shelf stacker if need be. Ive seen jobs advertised in the area but there isn’t that many ‘step1’ jobs listed. I think itd would be a case of walking around each place begging, or at least handing out CVs.
Four years ago, it took similar courage to move out of a bad living situation. I’m certainly glad I did that. I can’t let my childhood selfs fate be that of my only childs. It is my only shot at being a father. My own somewhat got the ratios wrong while I was growing up…, I can’t do that.
Well this past couple of days has been full of revelations. Pretty good ones as well. I have been configuring a couple of new websites, designing a new card game, recieved my first new £1 coins (hence the title) and best of all me and my lady are gathering plans to relocate to a rather lovely little town a bit northwards. To say im excited would be an understatement. Could even be a chance for a couple of old hobbies to resurface.
Now will be the time to save. For some reason I can feel it wont be as long as we thought….
