Today I had an interview for a job at the local council offices.  I had difficulty getting prepared for it, my shirt collar was a bit tight, I guess I will have to buy a new shirt.  I heard this afternoon that I was not successful but I guess I knew that, I was not that bothered about getting a job which was only to cover maternity leave really, it would be nice to have a job that lasted a bit longer than that.  The people who were interviewing were very nice though.  The weather is foul today, this afternoon also I went to my nephew's birthday party, it was a bit noisy but I guess thats what kids do, is make noise.

I got up today, not feeling too good, after having too much to drink last night, I am not sure why I drink the stuff I do, as I don't really like the thing, but I don't like much else that is served in a pub really. I did not venture too far today due to not feeling too good, also I was not sure where to venture to, I think a change of routine might be required. I saw an article about the town of Shrewsbury in the paper today, and I am planning a trip there next week. Wales lost again in the rugby in Australia, I think, they lost because they did not want it as much as Australia, sometime all the skill and all the talent in the world won't get you over the line, sometime, you really have to want it and believe it, I think Wales sees itself more of a team, 'real' countries have that added incentive of being mature to believe they can win especially at home, that's why Wales will not achieve nothing significant on the world stage until it breaks away from English

There is a a photographic exhibition in the local pub, the photss date from the 70's.  There is one there of my mother and father, which is nice, but I wish I had been told beforehand that it was going to be there.  There are photos of other people I know there too, these photos are like a window into the past.  There a few of the people I don't recognise and but i hope to find out in the near future who they are, I am sure someone in the village knows who they are. It a lot better weather wise today, its been horrible for days, so much rain, we get enough of the damned thing in the winter

I had a bit of a hangover today after overindulging last night. I drank more than I had hoped to, but I guess its done now.  I have not had a very eventful day due to the hangover.  The weather is better today, not so much rain, but I saw photos of Aberystwyth and they have had a lot of floods there.  I guess we are lucky we live on top of a hill.  I have watched football for most of this evening,and I guess it the start of a summer of sport, next will be the Olympics, and Wimbeldon, after a month of this football,its just a shame that Wales can't get to one of these tournments 

Today has been a long really boring day, the weather people said there was going to be reai today, but none turned up, I shall have to stop listening to their crap.  This is the last bank holiay for a while thank God, as they are getting a bit tedious. This rotten tinnitus has been vile all day, I really hope it improves soon as its maddening.  I am in the middle of applying for a job but there seems to be the same obstacle in my way as hhas been present for a while, well since I moved here anyway, I don't posses a driving licence and that will never change.  There might be a couple of other things that might stop me from getting the job too, but the main one is the not driving bit. I made a curry for my tea, with chicken and some paste I have had in the cupboard fora a few months now, I thought it would not be very good as I have had a few shop bought curries lately and they have been rubbish but actually this lamb biryani from a jar was not all that bad really.  I made enough for

Today is the third day of a really long weekend, its appauling really that there is 2 bank holidays just because some old bird has been spongig off the state for 60 years.  I tried to find the path to the water works again but failed, I can't find it on the map either, I will need someone to show me where it is I guess.   One oood thing about this jubilee crap, there is no nuisance marketing calls.

I had a bit of a hangover today, have not been feeling too good all day really.  I also got my computer back today, with a hefty bill attached to it, they also forgot to put the discs which I gave them, in the bag, I shall have to go and get them at some point next week.  My tinitus is bad today, maybe its the beer or something else.  I was talking to my cousine about it last night as she has it too, its a horrible thing.
