Took Helen to work she was up at half past five again and trampling round the bedroom like a baby elephant open drawers talking to herself and me whilst going to the bathroom and getting dressed .

I get up at half past six to drive the five minutes it takes to her place of work , this morning we took Pip with us .After i had dropped Helen of , Pip and i went to the nature reserve at Rodley for a walk alone the canal bank ,not the hottest of mornings but it was ok for walking there where quite a few barges both full and half size moored up along the banks numerous ducks and geese and horses in fields along the way. On a early morning stroll you can always smell bacon cooking and strong smell of coffee in the pot which always makes me want to turn round and go home.

I like the idea of living on water on either on a boat or barge but not sure if i could do it in indefinitely i think i would go a little stir crazy living on something so narrow , you can more or less touch opposite walls , it be nice being moored up in the country side near to a village pub which did home cooked food and plenty of pear cider and at night with a full moon sat out under the stars but if your not sailing life would be a bit confined and boring , most have bikes lashed to the decks and a lot of dogs so i guess having a barge would if nothing else get you very fit and very relaxed and chilled out.

I never know what to do i came home and cooked some bacon rashers for a sandwich than more or less wait till its time for me to set off to work at one o clock i leave the house and go catch the bus into Leeds city centre so i can start work at two o clock , i have vacuumed up downstairs as the budgies we have always get feathers every where and seed husks . i also washed the dining items up , and now i am online once again .

The battery i ordered for my Finepix F20 compact camera that i bought of Ebay came all the way from Japan i only paid £2.95 with free postage it may have took a couple of weeks to get here but it made it and its fine.

Be glad when its friday and i am on the bus home and work is finished for the week , hopefully its going to be brighter and warmer than it has been , and we can get out for the day and catch some sun.
