shower

Thie is the story of the broken shower door.  A few months ago the shower door broke, the things tha keep it attached to the frame came lose, I am not sure what they are called, anyway, I needed new ones, I managed to phone the company who supplied the shower and they said that it would cost me £12,  well I wasn't going to pay that, it was the housing company's responsibility I thought, so I rang them and asked them to get soime of these things, that I needed. I gave them the order number.  Well weeks and months went buy and as I guess, I knew, the housing company did nothing, they are not very good landlords. I was a bit worried the shower would come off altogether, eventually so decided I would have to buy the things myself, I rang them and fair play they sent me a set for nothing, which kind of rekindled my faith in human nature a little.  The shower door had not been put in properly in the first place, more cowboy builder work, I guess, so many of those idiots around, there should be some regulation and not that any old twat can set themselves up as a so called builder.

 Yesterday I put the new fasteners on the shower door, and while doing this, I came across a problem which had been there since the the thing was put in, one of the rollers for te sliding door had come away and was not working and that is why the bottem fasteners came lose in the first place, so now the thing is fixed and the door should be fine for a long time now.  I am not a diy person, but this was a bit of an emergency as I could have ended up with no shower, especially if I was relying on the housing company, anyway, well done Coram showers.
I am still struggling with the EDM music, I thought I had done a good track the other day, but on taking back to the teacher to listen to he was not happy with it, though I am not I was wise taking it to him as I was not too willing to accept to the criticism either, and I kind of blocked it out, I guess I am ok writing songs ona  guitar but no good with this electrnoic music, anyway, its the last week this week and I can get away fromt the course for a while and do other things.

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
