Another fine day here the sun is shinning bright and I think it will be warmer here today.  This time 4 years ago I spent a lot of time on this sofa. It is the sofa that was in the halls of residence when I was at college four years ago they were good days really.  I am hopefully going back there for a weekend soon as there is a reunion there I have not sorted out any accommodation as yet its not that easy really and I guess a lot can happen between now and then so I guess I will hold off for while especially with the way that my health has been going on recently. I am going to a course on tuesday to help me with my health and its appropriate that its at the local hospital I guess. I was sat on the above sofa watching the world cup which a friend said would be won by a germany he was right I was wrong I can't remember who I picked.  I think Spain or Belgium will win it this time though Germany might get there act together now and do well.

I had a nice walk yesterday around the ranges as I use to call it, it is an old firing range near trawsfynydd its where the army tested out their guns and trained people to be soldiers from the beginning of the 20th century up until the 50s.  It was introduced as an antidote to the new way of fighting that being gurilla warefare. It rained most of the day yesterday it is a shame we never went today as it is very nice today and apparently we are in for a nice few days.  I had a doctors appointment today, on my way home yesterday they were doing a lot road works outside the village and it meant that there was a waiting period of 2 minutes plus so today I took the earlier but thinking in it would be the same today it wasn't they had finished the work and we went straight through so I got to the place where the doctor was an hour sooner so I had a long time to kill, it was dry so I guess it was ok.  I really wanted to go swimming today but this doctors appointment stopped that it get

Another long boring sunday is nearly over thank heavens Sundays are real drag and have been for a few years now I know am not the only who feels like this but it might be something to do with my situation I guess if I had something to do in the week they might not be so bad and I would appreciate the time off I guess. It is not so sunny today well it was this morning but it has been raining this afternoon and is grey now I guess all good things come to an end and the fine weather which I reckon has been the best for many years is nearly coming to an end I suppose. I guess it it rains after thursday it will be ok as I will have the world cup to watch its just a shame Wales is not in it but I am used to that now as they have not qualified in my life time. I got this app yesterday it recognises bird apparently bird song if you record what is going on around you, it has come up with some names but I have no idea which ones it recorgnises and which one it doesn't I think the main bi

I have just finished reading a book called Trafficked Girl by Zoe patterson and someone else, I am not sure how to spell trafficked correctly if it has a k in it or not.  Anyway this book is the most harrowing I have ever read it has explicit detail of how the person who wrote this book was abused and by mainly Aisan men in the midlands from the age of 13 after she went into care.  She ended up in care due to the abuse she received from her mother mainly by also her brothers. This book is unreal really hard to believe that such things could go on in modern day Britain.  I say I read the book I actually listened to it on audiobook, it was a touch listen at the beginning and I got really angry. This book shows the police and the social services in the midlands in a bad light to say the least but I guess that does not matter what matters is that a young girl's life has been destroyed by total and utter incompetance by the agencies who were suppose to take care of her.  I nearly stop
