Today is another fine, not sure how long this good weather will last and maybe we won't see anymore of it again this year, that seems to be the way in last few years, a spurt of good weather in early spring and then nothing, no summer, well I hope this year is different and we do get a bit of a summer.  Things feel a bit better when you have nice weather, instead of the constant rain or cold that we usually get around here. I came across a blackbird this morning which was messing about in the guttering, I am not too sure why it was there, I had a look and there was nothing there which I thought it would be interested in, it seems to have gone now anyway.

It is a lovely spring day today, its very warm the warmest day of the yare really. and also the clock went forwards last night.  I am still trying to get the hang of this home recording lark and to understand thei soundcard or audio interface or whatever its called, and I really struggling, its so damned awkward.  i am trying to record using audacity, I understand that ok but the blood sound card is really making live awkward for me, and I am thinking about getting rid of it, just dumping it in the bin and buying another one, but I guess i could end up in the sam situation again where the sound card just messes me around.  i am not sure what to doi really, I really want to get some recording done but its eluding me right now and is very frustrating 

oh the fun of travelling on public transport, today on a bus there was  woman who came on, she had two dogs with her and they were jumping all over the place has their noses in people's bags, the woman had no control over them, I think the consensus was she and the dogs should have been thrown off.  On another journey today, there were 2 obnoxious gits making a racket..good ole public transport..;)

It is a nice day weatherwise today, though the wind is cold. I have just come home from Blaenau, and on my doorstep was the gas man, I did not get any notice about him coming so the place was not as tidy and spick and span as it usually is, apparently I was not the only that had no received any notice of him coming and he had spent the day not getting answers, I am used to the situation really, as had it loads of times while a tennat to the coucil.  My phone went as I was on the bus coming back here and I could not hear who it was, it just dawned on me that it  might have been the gas man, and he has now gone so I will not be able to aske him, unless he comes back next year, but then again the company who do the gas boiler services might have changed by then as they have changed a couple of times in the last few years.  Anyway the boiler is fine, except for a couple fo things, which need fixing, lets hope they send me a letter this time to confirm an appointment, or maybe they will not
