No sign of the people who are suppose to be giving me a new kitchen, today.  The work that should have been done today or was the rewiring and in one way I am glad they didn't turn up as I would have had bare wires, waiting to be plastered, wold have had this over, the weekend.

I had a dentist appointment early in the morning and if they had not arrived by the time I had to go and get the bus, they were not going to get in anyway, I toyed with leaving a message with next door, but I reckon if they are not here by half nine they are not coming at all.  Its a real drag not having a kitchen, and having to go backwards and forward to a the room where the stuff is.  I guess I will get left alone this weekend and and won't have to be worry about them turning up so much I guess, and hopefully they will come and Monday and get on with the process. I am beginning to regret starting the whole thing really.

Like I say I went to the dentist and my teeth are ok, I was offered a clean up of my teeth be declined as I am a bit wound up about this kitchen business and could not be bothered to sit there through that horrible grinding process, maybe I will feel more like having the process done next time.

I have found a hole in the coat I ware to go out in too, its a bit annoying though I don't really like the coat itself, I guess I will have go and buy a new one as I can't be bothered to get it fixed.  I had planned to go to an open mic night tonight but due to the shit public transport I won't I don't think.

I was talking to chap today, and he said the best job he has ever had was the one he was in at the moment, the only problem was that the job was only for 6 months.  I remember something simillar happening to me, I had this job on a scheme for 6 months in a geriatric hospital, I was totally gutted when it came to an end but I did turn it round and became a volunteer there, which was good, I think the reason I enjoyed the job so much, was that fact that it was the first time in my life I was good at doing something and I got a lot of support from the other people.  Maybe there it is easier to throw yourself into a 6 month scheme, as its not quite real job, its like a holiday job I guess,  there are not the same expectations on you I suppose.  I think I have the chance of going on one of these schemes soon, but in an administrative capacity, which I am not sure whether I want to do or not really

whist

Well I achieved something last night, which I thought was going to be beyond me, I guess to a lot of people what I achieved, was pretty trivial, but I guess we all see things different;ly, what I achieved was to get over 170 score in a whist drive.  Last night was the first time I had ever done it, had a few scores in the 160's but not in the 170's which I see as the holy grail of scores to get as you will probably win then, which in fact I didn't last night, someone scored more than me, by 1 point.  I was not that bothered about that, all I was concerned about was getting a score above 170, I have been going to whist for years off and on and was never, until last night able to get the magic score, I am surprised I got the score last night as I had a bad headache all evening, I guess it was the luck of the cards that got me through. I thought I would never get the score, as I don't see very well, and struggle to make out the cards sometimes which is a bit of a strain,

great war

I went to an exhibition today, which was about the first world war, it mainly seemed to be full of photos of men from my home village who had fallen in the great war, they were all young obviously not ravaged by time.  It was a bit sad to think that so many young men from the place where I grew up were killed, it had their names and the names of where they lived, the names of houses and streets are the same today Sometimes you feel the outside world does not affect what happens here, but I guess it must do as it dragged a load of the young men here into the conflict which was going on at that time, I am not sure I agree with them going to fight, but that is neither here nor there, the fact is they did and that was what was going on at that time. My grandfather was in the first world war, but he was lucky enough to survive, even though he did leave his calf muscle over there in wherever he was, it must have been hell for him really and I guess I will never know what he saw there, al

shack

I did not go the 4th day of the walk, I could not face another 10 miles of plodding around the countryside, I think this is mainly due to the fact that I have not been walking quite so much in the last year, due to bad weather and things like that.  I did not think I would even finish 2 days but I did 3 in the end, more than anyone else except the person who organised the walk.   Instead of going on the walk i tidied up around the place, and just sat around, and also watched the football this afternoon, it was a crap day.  I did not even go for a short walk, its still perishing out there, I have a short walk on Wednesday, a kind of trail run for group who want to do this short walk, a recky or something they call it. I have at last heard when the new kitchen is being put in, apparently its on the !0th of April, I should have a received a 21 day notice but I didn't, which I guess is typical of the organisation who are doing the work. I am a bit apprehensive about the rewiring as the
