A New Day

My weekend past pretty uneventfully, made a visit to the dump to dispose of some rubbish that I had sorted from my garage, and went swimming. Apart from that not a lot happened.

We are currently trying to engage a builder to knock through our living and dining room, we manged to get one quote before christmas but noone seems very keen. We have replied to the builder who did provide the quote and asked him to contact us as we would like to go ahead but have had no reply. This is so annoying I really would like to get th ework done. It would allow us to move the furniture around to suit the seasons, our house is south facing so the living room can get quite warm in the summer so it would be nice to move the sofas into the back room and the dining table into the front and vice versa in the winter.

I am also trying to add a wireless connection to my laptop which is proving to be annoyingly awkward, it just will not pick up a signal for longer that a couple of seconds. It appears that there is a problem with my laptop as we successfully installed the wireless card into another laptop and it worked straight away. I'm getting quite frustrated and feel like just buying another laptop which would be an extremely expensive solution.

Well best get back to work now.

Bye

Back Again

Its been a long time since I've been here, but it's nice to try things new.

Anyway I have managed to stay off the cigs, that will be 15 months by Tuesday. Work is going well and I have been told that my yearly appraisal went well and a nice bonus will be on its way.

We have booked this years holiday, off to Italy a little place called Capo Vaticano, for two weeks in August. It looks lovely, not a mainstream resort with all the nightclubs and noise somewhere a bit quieter with a nice sandy beach. (If anyone has been and can provide any info) .

I want to try and keep this blog more upto date and interesting which will certainly be a challenge and one I will enjoy trying to overcome.

Must Go Now
