(Ahem...)

I got my phone back!

So what happened was a runner (former international rugby player who runs with my club now) lives at the bottom of the wee mountain. He's often up the hill 2-3 times a week with his dug, Ted. There's an app called Strava for runners/cyclists to post up their runs/cycles and, like Facebook, you can follow or have follow people you so they're on your feed. Anyway, we follow each other on Strava and he said he;d have a look next time he's up. He went up on Tuesday afternoon and ... found it lying in the middle of the grassy path coming down the north side of the hill. 1% battery left. Took it home, charged it the posted his run on Strava, posting a comment to me to say he'd found it. So, i went to his yesterday evening to pick it up.

And it IS true. It DOES still work (though no longer charges from my laptop, but does through the mains....odd?).

So that is the story of the finding of Arsey's iPhone and that miracles do happen. Even for cynical arses like Arsey :haha:

TFI... Friday, folks!

How's yis all doing? ... Whatdayamean sleeping?

Had a strange dream... dreamt that there was a meeting of staff at one of the schools i work in about changes/recommendations coming in (dunno what)... and then I stood up and complained that I thought the diktats coming from above were not good, this was not why i came into teaching and that I was offended/disturbed by what was happening and that Iwas sorry if I upset anyone yada yada... and the walked out. A wee while later the deputy head of that school and another teacher can out of the meeting and sat at a table (it was like we were in a deserted cafe somewhere) and I thought someone might say "well done" for speaking up... but then the other teacher and the DH say they found what I said offensive. I mind thinking, "apology, take it on the chin, but stand for what you think..."

Dunno what ti was about tbh, just weird - and like really vivid. Probably cos i had it just afore i woke up.
[MENTION=9094]satz123[/MENTION] , how's the young 'un doing?

Molly - what kind of shite did you learn at your course? Dung? Diarrhoea? sheep pellets? :haha:

Interesting dreams are... suppose i really want to wish they DO have significant meaning, but then i have a blighter of a sceptic in me who says it's just the mind sorting all the days wheat from the chaff and re-enrgising itself for a new day.

How's yer crotchett hook? Well done for Jenny getting a second interview :thumbs:

I only rediscovered the 'simple' things in sobriety - the quick and easy high that booze gave me made the 'little' things seem too trivial to bother with - now I can get fun out of two blackbirds having a row out the back garden...

Evening all - just made myself a big platter of bbq chicken wings and fried noodles and not for anyone else... well they SAID they weren't hungry - but I sat and loved it...going to learn to be more selfish... fed up trying to please everyone and pleasing NO ONE!!!

Re: Join the Army Against Alcohol-January 2018

:heartbeat: Keep it simple.

Any left, Molls. Baked a ham with new potatoes and few carrots and broccoli for himself.

The class is getting better. We're not all nervous round each other, a good few laughs.......and we learnt how to treble stitch.........you know its quite engrossing.........hard to believe that two and half hours just fly by..............and I'm trying not to get over excited but we're doing granny squares next week

Plumber's been and mended the flush in the lav. We could use it but it was complicated and we needed a kit hen knife. The excitement of my Friday knows no bounds.

Mrs A and our Molls. Feet up the pair of you. Reach no further than the channel changers and only excercise is lifting a cup of tea and a slice of cake.
