bank holiday Monday 13

The other day I got a letter saying that I have an interview for a job, on the 16th of June in Tremadog, I was not expecting to get one really, well I guess if I am going to apply, there is chance I guess, I think I got the interview due to the fact that I put down, that I have a disability, and the council who are giving me the interview, have a policy where if you meet the minimum criteria, you will get an interview, if do have a disability.  When I got the letter originally, I was very pleased but if I am only getting the interview due to their policy, I guess they will have drawn up their ideas of who I am before I get there, I will be assigned the stereotypes, they will have a closed mind to me, well this is what I think anyway, I can't see that I will be treated the same as the other candidates,  unless there is another disabled candidate.  It almost feels like they are just going through the motions. I say that I think that it is the main reason I got the interview, I don't know, so its quite difficult to know how to be.

I applied for this job as I have some experience of doing it, I think, I say I think as I did not read the description properly, and now I don't have a copy of it as I applied on line and don't have a hard copy, and I forgot to save a copy on the computer. I have tried to look at similar on the internet and I think I understand what the job is.  The main problem with getting a job round here is that I don't drive, it did not say that I had to drive, in the job description, but I think they may have forgotten to put it in or just assume that most people do.  I have not done a full time job for a long time, so I did manage to get it it would be a bit of a shock,

I need to get a job due to the cost of living, its too hard to live on beneftis, and don't really want to do that for the rest of my life I guess.  If I got the job I would would not be able to go to Hereford, and therefore get away from from scum, which is a bit of a drawback.

I am still trying to clean up after the builders, I am having problems getting rid of the dust, it seems to be stuck to the carpet and I will need a cleaner or something, but this place does feel better to live in than it did, I had a basement before now I have a kitchen, well for a while anyway, until the elements get to it, the damp etc destroys it and them I'm back to square one, but I hope not.

Well it seems to have finally stopped raining, which it has been doing all day long

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
