Saturday took Guy to ilkely for the morning had a coffee and muffin from Greg's in the afternoon went to Holmfirth bought a book from the second hand book shop "The Lost Boy" about the Keith Bennett and the moors murderers.Bought a old fashioned Rollin pin some butter pats and a old fashion iron from antique shop.Went to visit two Friends whom i have not seen since my divorce but have known them over 16 years Nik and Erky over at Heaton Bradford stayed a few hours catching up on stuff.

Sunday
went and to car boot at Rufforth then drove back to the one at Wetherby Race Course bought some old stone pot wear for the kitchen , went back home and had our first ever proper Sunday dinner , since we moved in to the house last December.We had a brisket of beef with roast potatoes , with proper gravy and of course Yorkshire puddings and roasted veg followed by apple strudel turned out perfect yum yum .

finally cooking with gas and electric got it all plumbed in , and its working fine.After ten months can finally do roasted veg and sunday dinner .for the last ten months its been way too long like living in a squat .

finally made it to Ladybower

Guy still with me and he is doing great at college really proud of him .
going to Ladybower in the morning done the eggs for the egg mayo sarnies just got the flasks to make and the bread to butter ,will take more photos and walk for miles . The cooker is coming this Monday ten months without a proper cooker.
Nothing else has happened been back to Saddleworth a few times since the last post.

Did some work in the garden made one of the boarders bigger and planted some bulbs to come up next year , getting the cooker on the 21st of September fingers crossed , Guy started at college applied for EMA .won sisxty six quid on the lottery bingo at work .
no nights all week .

Totally skint till pay day I am owed £135 from the lady we sent the cat back hopefully this weekend I will get a cheque

Posted out to me and can get it banked , Helen sons stumps up £30 Tuesday and I have twenty three pounds in cash

In my wallet . did fill the car up and we have gas and electric on the metre which will need topping up before payday .

Trying to get a weekend shift but it’s not looking likely anymore I won’t have to rely on weekends anymore .

Still no offers on the house we have on the market looks like it’s going to be a uphill struggle to sell it before its repossessed

Hopefully we will still get some cash if it is but not as much if we are allowed to sell it privately .

Still waiting for the range to be delivered can’t see us getting it this week be lucky if its next week one of the reasons I am skint

Is that I had to pay the builder for opening up the chimney breast and capping off the chimney which was £350 plus electrical work at £125

and re-piping the gas £85 .

We also paid five hundred pounds for the cooker which is still at our friends house who are waiting delivery for a higher spec model to replace it ,

so we can have the one that they have now.

Guy starts college Tuesday hopefully he will get EMA payment of thirty pound a week which will give him some cash in his pocket for life’s little essentials
and before we know it It’s going to be bonfire night then Christmas. Then 2010 .

Helen is back on sick she won’t be working this weekend might end up at Saddleworth Moor again next week I have five nights off from my hospital cleaning job
