It is very sad round here these days so many young people passing away I am going to a funeral tomorrow of a young man who grew up next door to me he to me was part of the fabric of this village he had  'always' been here kind of thing, I will miss him. It is very sad for the family as his brother died young too, I have also heard today that someone else younger than me has passed away I did not know her that well but it is still very sad.  I know of a couple of others who are younger than me and not very well at all.  I doubt they have gotten any sort of grip on this cancer thing at all it seems to be getting worse someone reckoned its because people are not dying of other things I am not too sure of that I know we have to die of something but these people are too young in my eyes but I guess in relation to history they are not that young. I am feeling my age these days with this arthritis thing its not as bad as yesterday but I am still in discomfort and I am down for

I finally got this laptop back after it has been in the repair shop for a couple of months due to my own stupidity really, I should not have lost my temper which I have a tendency to do with computers and things.  It has a patch up job really as they were not able to get the part they wanted for it so apparently it might go again soon we shall see. My pain is a bit better today maybe the tablets are working I hope this thing moves on soon as its horrble.  I found out today that funeral of lad from the village is on saturday morning and I would like to go but as yet have no lift there I am sure someone will give me lift there it is a very sad time, he was ok was Cai. I am slowly getting used to the hearing aids I think they can be a bit irriatating at times I do feel this is it from now on though they will be a part of my life now which is a bit sad I guess, they did seem to have a benefit yesterday though.

I got some food poisoning a few months ago and the bacteria has left a nasty little ailment behind I now have arthritis in my knees and a couple of other places the doctor says it will go in time but in the meantime I am in bit of pain most days. and anti inflammatories are not much help as they play havoc with my stomach. I never knew you could get after effects from the nasty little bacteria. The weather has improved today its more like spring now not winter.  It was nice to for a walk round the village not far but at least I got some fresh air.

The weather is better today than it was yesterday it is not raining as much.  I popped into town for  few things and there were more reports of Arriva buses not turning up and there is no apology or no sign of a replacement bus if one breaks down this has been going on for months now and is a real inconvenience also the fact that the company has reduced the service on a Saturday night you begin to wonder what will happen to this service and there will be one at all soon. I got my package today and it was delivered the day after I ordered it as it was stated that it was going to do I now have new usb hub not sure if it will work as good as the other one but so far its seems to be doing ok.. I have just watched the Wales v Scotland game and towards the end it was quite tense but manged to ger there in the end.  this fucking feedback tab is fucking pain the fucking ass.  I guess all the trouble during the week did not help Wales at all There seems to be a lot young people getting ca

It is a vile day weather wise again and its not that much better regarding other issues either. I mistakenly clicked the amazon prime button so it took ages to find out how to cancel I think I have managed it now.  I wanted to go on amazon as I have broken the usb hub thing due to having signed up for prime and now cancelled it still seems that I will get the benefits of prime for a month which means I will get the hub tomorrow for nothing in relation to the posting which is quite good. It is so quiet around here these days not much sign of life just some cars going by I think its the cars which are to blame for the killing of villages the fact that folk now don't have to stay where they live they can shoot off in their metal boxes this village is jam packed with cars carmageddon as some would call it. I have at last made  different soup from leek and potato its celery soup it seems to be a lot thicker than the leek one but it tasted ok and I will have some for lunch in while I

Another drab Sunday I guess, the weather has been awful all day wind and rain such a change from the start of the week when it was like summer I guess now its back to the normal weather of late winter I suppose I guess spring will soon be hear and it will warm up.  I hope the fine weather at the beginning of week does not mean that we will get a shit summer I guess there is nothing I can do about it so there is not need to worry. I have the bad back which I had a few months ago again, thought maybe its not as bad as the last episode thankfully but adding it the other ailments I have just makes life a bit difficult at the moment. I still have not over the food poisoning I had 2 months ago properly, hopefully that will move on soon. I got the some welsh words to the irish song Maggie last night they are translation of the English version though not an exact translatoion which would be difficult I guess but the essence of the song is there the growing old and things changing.
