DOWNHILL

A day this week i was sat on the main reception desk  at work i was sat opposite Costa coffee shop in the Rotunda or foyer and for four hours I helped people with their enquiries who was lost or had appointments and did not know where to go , and the best bit I was also was people watching for most of the time in between it was the best four hours I have spent this week at work , sad when your more happier doing what technical is not my job to do than doing your normal role .

My son thought that getting his new car was going to be a breeze through his naivety unfortunately life aint' that simple just when you thought it was plain sailing there is a hitch , and  in his case a massive hitch he does not have the funds at this moment in time to buy the car in a couple of month he will or even weeks he will have  the money today he found out he is like the rest of us ,  he might have thought he could capture a dream only to realise it eluded him in the end  , one thing for sure he will get a car he wants it just won't be yet .
If THAT WAS NOT ENOUGH he had a second knock back after attending an interview this afternoon he found  out he did not get the job , so i am really feeling for him there is nothing i can do which pisses me off i just speak to him on the phone telling him to keep his head up hard  advice to take when your on your knees praying for a lucky break .

Any way one day at work two days off then three days work four days of sounds good to me money or not i won't be at work a three day week  and being paid for five suits me fine .

To cap it all the Euro Lottery jack pot is 143 million pounds sterling that's some serious spending  power , i buy a penthouse apartment and a country estate and maybe even a private island like Richard Branson or UB40  own I build a retreat on to get away from it all ,  it  it's good to dream.

SATURDAY
Spent four hours sat in the car our little black Suzuki swift  in a supermarket car park whilst Helen did her readings , I watched a film on my iPad "Lucy" which was entertaining  and tethered to the Internet using my phone looking on Ebay for cars.

I have downloaded Yosemite but yet to install it on my Mac , on the way home had American fried chicken fron Marstons  chicken shack it was full as always the food was worth the wait.

Not had any of the following items for absolutely ages :-

White chocolate mocha from Starbucks with cream
Chinese food duck curry and noodles
Chocolate fudge cake with pouring cream .
Koppaberg pear cider ice cold
Read a decent book one you pick up and can't put down.
Bought any new aftershave  Prada,
T3 or Stuff Magazine .

Thing is i could do all the lot for the cost of around £90 the dearest item being the Prada aftershave.
Its my birthday next Thursday but pay day the Thursday after could always wait .

SUNDAY
Installed Yosemite on my Mac Book Pro looks to be operating fine would close down saying Safari was open when it was not other than that no issues .

My Son Guy called to see us at the cottage again  today he drove over from seeing his sister in Leeds he still as the loan car until his insurance is settled , we went for a walk with one of our neigh-boughs Charlie and his border collie Mollie just locally around the lanes and roads in a big loop taking about an hour , it threatened rain but kept dry until we had finished after getting back home we cooked some fish rice and fries and watched Denzel Washington in "The Book OF Eli".

MONDAY
Working three days only this week i decided some time ago that never again would i work on my birthday , i might not get anything but least i will have the day off .
After my birthday the rest of the years seems to  be all down hill its Halloween , bonfire night ,  Christmas and  new year end of 2014 hello 2015.
