Had a huge 14 mile walk to Fiskerton and back today. In hindsight I should have biked but had a great time, lots of exercise and even stopped to search for a few geocaches. Will try and find that one around the rec near dads place. Feet are killing and I’m a wee bit sunburnt on the neck and arms. Hopefully I can set about building my two special caches this week, and my new phone will arrive. Roll on Monday!

Payday and I can’t get to the bank as its teeming hard with torrential rain. I have just checked my #Android app #RainAlarm and I still have about an hour to go before the rains lift. Its a minor convenience as it has been relatively dry here in #Lincolnshire. The soil is like brickdust so the plants have suffered somewhat.
Tonight I plan to film myself playing Centurian so I need to get in town and but a shot glass. I’m going to film it in #timelapse as well and watch myself get gradually inebriated with my mates on Facebook. Just for a laugh. Right now though, time for a mushroom cupasoup !
Had a lovely birthday today (which is now yesterday at time of posting). Susie and Tracy kicked off the day plying me we cake, wine, chocolates and a zombie model kit. Young sister Squoo would come round at lunchtime with some cards and money. Went for a stroll around the arboretum shortly after, then home for burger and chips.
After much umming and arrring I decided to go to The Harrows pub inΒ North Hykeham where the local geocachers were taking part in a pub quiz. It was nice to meet them all they seemed very amiable and welcoming.Β Even better the bus there was running late so the driver never charged us, and I got a lift home. I spent less than six quid on an evening out and our lot won the quiz and the raffle lol.
Strange things are also afoot. Jihbvfe bff nebab jti dpwno bsat hfeg jrlijim fte yfst frdbya … bndah bdas fxewj thihb sajgn prfdem yemfssb gfse. I have uninstalled WhatsApp now, the only way to contact is text or phone. Which they haven’t. Hate time wasters.
Anyway all in all a great day with some nice prezzies and a plethora of new friends x
I wasted no time in flying out the front door today. Set out to do some geocaching and managed to get a couple on the west Common before my phone eventually died. Need to see if I get store caches offline on my Sony so I can get out for longer.
Once again I was treat to an awful lot of pizza last night so I’ve bought the cats a collar and ID tag each. Ninja seems a friendly little thing but Kitty appears to be a little anti social right now. Most important thing now is to make sure Ramona’s room door is tight shut. I like all the animals here but if anything happened to her I’d be devastated.
Been almost two weeks since posting here. Finally feel I’m over my cold and that’s good as its my birthday on the 27th. Things are still bad at work, I think the only saving grace to keep my hours is if someone bottles out and leaves. Regina is thinking about it. My previous GSM has put my details forward to the company she works for now. That could be a lifeline if anything pops up. I think Craig’s safe though seeings how our current GSM has rewarded his two week absence with even less work and shouldered it onto Regina’s duties. I’ll bet there’s some serious time sheet fixing going on, I can’t see Regina staying on till the 6:30pm like she claims to be with two kids and a moaning husband to contend with.
At home, there seems to be something up. I seem to be getting fed a couple of times a week by the landlady. Well…a rent increase is well out of the equation. I’d need to go back to Abbott Street if that ever happened I guess. We’ll be acquiring two cats as well apparently now her eldest has separated with her fella and moved in next door. Before anyone asks…I ain’t babysitting! I moved in there to lodge not be a scivvy.
Been battling with a nasty cold since Thursday evening so haven’t done a great deal at all this weekend. I saw an interesting fan review of the post apocalypse film Threads yesterday. It was being weighed up against a US version of the same topic, The Day After. Both good films although Threads was filmed with much more graphic realism and no holds barred. Quite surprising for a britflick.
I’ve replenished my bug out bag with two days worth of provisions. May ask Susie if I can pitch a tent out back for a couple of nights. Even down the side would do, I’m out everyone’s way there.
Back to work tomorrow. Hopefully the worst will have passed. Craig’s been on leave a fortnight claiming stress. We are wondering if he’ll try the sixth month trick, but Steve has been taking pictures for Val of his duties and areas he’s been missing. With any luck she will grow a backbone and dismiss Craig, but then she didn’t listen when I complained so why should she now. Nice lady but crap manager. Still, roll on the next couple of weeks.
Well, Britain are no longer going to be under a hung parliament thanks to the Conservative party winning outright majority. This is pleasing as it means the SNP won’t be co-allied with anybody. Speaking of which the SNP have done extremely well and dominate the Scottish electorate having beayen back Labour. Despite Farage losing his constituency in South Thanet the growth of support in UKIP did show through with an overall 9% climb. They now have a single seat in Parliament, but from little acorns….
…so, now David CaMoron is back in number ten Downing Street, will he keep his word and issue an EU referendum? I don’t think he will. Time will tell!
Reasons I’m voting #UKIP –
#Labour and #Conservative having done nothing but balls up over the past X amount of years. Time for fresh blood!
I wish to see the NHS get a three billion pounds boost!
I wish to see our armed forces better equipped than the dated crap from yesteryear.
I want to see border control. We have our own homeless and our own criminals, Britain doesn’t want everyone else’s! Border control does not mean “halt immigration entirely”.
I want out of the EU membership . This isn’t racist, if you say it is then you are calling Norway and a dozen other countries #racist whom are not in the EU. Soz!
So Nicola Sturgeon doesn’t even get a look in. Scotland is a portion of Britain. This makes her SNP more racially segregated than BNP ever was. How dare she call UKIP racist.
Nigel #Farage is not only the most engaging public speaker in politics, direct and to the point….but also a bloody nice gent to meet.
That’s my bit for the day π
Finally got out, managed a 40 minute none stop bike ride. Not bad considering Ive been suffering with #runner knee for about a month! Enjoy …
