rendering again

Well, the big crack in the rendering has finally been fixed after a lot of fuss and bullshit, from when they told me that the thing had been fixed to so, the latest bullshit, that the house was going to be put on some scheme and that it would have had the whole lot rendered, this I think was said, as they were annoyed or not too pleased to be harassed by the citizens advice bureau. I had kind of got one over on them, well they should not mess me about I guess and be honest in their dealing, they are suppose to be there to help people who can't afford anywhere else to live not take the fucking piss.  I am sure the rendering will break again soon enough, and that its the building that needs doing again.  Anyway, its done now and hopefully I can paint a little bit of the living room now when it dries out from the damp.

 Damp is what it has been today all day, it has been vile weather all day, just wind and rain from the snow in America apparently, I don't know, just have to go by what they say, and its not going to be any better tomorrow apparently.

 Its tough when you have to spend the whole day in the house but it was too diabolical to go out and I am not feeling too good these days either.

 Time seems to be flying by these day, I see my lost post on here was nearly a month ago, I was aware the other day that its 17 years since I started at university, it feels like yesterday, or maybe I am wishing it was yesterday and wishing I was doing it again, as it was such an interesting course to do, that's life I guess I will have to find something else interesting to do,

I am still looking for something interesting to do besides listening to my blog posts on Edge

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
