Had a shit day today really again in this miserable pandemic lark which everyone is getting fed up with.  I decided to go and get my broken laptop which I am not going to pay to get fixed as I have ordered another one. In fact I did not pick It up in the end I left it there as I wsa only going to throw it away anyway and maybe they might be able to fix it and sell it as reonditioed perhaps' On the bus I got a bit of crap from the driver today which was a shame.  This was after gettting some shit from someone who had thrown next doors bin into the garden here It was a bit sad now that the best goal I have ever seen in welsh premier lieagu will not count as the lights fused and the game has to be replayed its a strange world right now I seem to be losing things these days and finding them is a lot harder for some reason now the boading balls gone missing its really frustrating these days   

Housing

  Housing is real problem these days round here, the other day a few people walked from Nefyn to Caernarfon to protest about the fact that too many houses are being tuned into holiday homes thus depriving locals of a home perhaps adn also making the price of houses go up ad out fof the reach of the local community meaning they have to leav to b able to buy a home. Inn this street whee I live there a few housing scenarios going on, I live in a housing association house, there are private homes here where people live in them all  the time and there houses which are second hmes and the re houses which are air bnb and there are houses which are owned by peopl who are in homes aer are never likey to leave at home adn have no use for that  house adn have no faily to passit on to. It is reported in the papaer today that people will lose their homes becasue of the end of the mortgage holiday.  Many people buy houses as investment adn again depriving people of a home.  I have a friend who has a

buses

  And its on we go with the pandemic some ne rules have come in again today I am not sure what some have gone into some local lockdown I am not surewho.  I doubt this place will see a lockdown again but I guess with these stupid politicians you never know. I had some bad news today regarding a laptop it is broken and will  need a new mother board well I am not buying one of them this the second laptop to gon a couple of weeks the first one I got fed up with as it ws so slow so I am not not sure whether to buy a new one or not.  I am not sure this tablet will do the job really and I have the money. I was encouraed today to apply for the council maybe I could do something for a while while I am there I shall see it might be interesting I guess the kids seem to have been more spread out today on the bus home maybe someone has had a word to them  I am not too sure what I will do tomorrow I am a bit tired these days maybe its boredom I am not too sure.  Regarding the council  I had better f
After a bit of messing about i managed to get this cheap bluetooth keyboard working though its a bit slow and they keypad is stiff but maybe it will losen up with time perhaps. I CAN   

pesky tourists

It has been a long and dreary day the new season is making it colder now and bit more uncomfortable at home and outside.  I guess it had to come eventually but I am not a fan of the cold which I have to put up with now for 6 months.  I jsut hope my fears are not realised and it becomes a nightmare Last winter seemed to be hard going with the pain in the hip the cabin fever and the hastle with noisy man hole cover but it just seems that it will be a lot tougher this year with the imposed isolation of the pandemic no distraction such as the music nights I am not sure if I can go swimming yet.  There will be no card playing not much social interaction at all really.  Even in the local shop the interaction is limited due to mask wearing and and the plastic screen that is there. I have thought about getting a plastic sheild as opposed to a mask as it might help with the steaming up of glasses but it might also be difficult for me to see through it as well so I guess I will stick with the ma

river

I decided to go and do some shopping today it was the first day where i would have to wear a mask in the ship.  I have had broken laptop for months so I took that down they claimed it won't start as it needs to close down I doubt this is the problem as it has closed down and nothing.  I took it down and had planned to leave it there but it was not the case as I had to take it home to so called close down and therefore I had to drag it round the shops with me which was a pain. I got the next bus back and attempted to have a chat through the mask but it was no good.  I had bought some lunch and had to wait till I got home to eat it, this I did in the garden.  After I had some lunch I looked for the phone it was nowhere to be seen I rang it no sound so it meant I had lost it on the bus.  I shot out of the house to catch the bus going back down.  I was not sure if the bus had been or was coming anyway it turned up.  I got on the bus took look for it it was nowhere to be seen  I thought
  The traffic round here has become awful its a bloody nuisance so much of it about rhese days that you crave for the lockdown again and the crap that that might bring too. I went for wonder round the grave yard this morning hoping to find a certain grave but I did not manage it I came across some names of places in the village which I did not know existed I guess its way of finding out what the place names, house names are called I guess.   The inscriptions on the stones are hard to read now some have been there for nearly 200 hundred years.  Some are in Welsh and some are in English which is interesting obviously bilingualism is long established here.  Some of the grave are disrepair and you wonder what will happen to them.  I guess graveyard are a record of social history Th weather is not so great today its ok but its has been a bit damp hopefully it will hold until thursday as i am off for a walk well an amble down hill \I guess it is Bleanau to Maentwrog.  I will help in the redu

Monday

  I went for a walk round the village graveyard last night to look at the different inscriptions on the graves and was surprised to see that the graves included the name of the children as well as the parents these graves were from the 19th century I guess the explanation is the fact that people died younger in those days. Today I go to the foodbank which is a bit quieter these days I am not sure if that is due to the fact that the universal credit is a bit more at the moment who knows or maybe the fact that the scam which was going on has stopped. I went to the foodbank today and due to the stupid labour crap in cardiff I have to wear a mask indoors and it was a pain in the ass as I wear glasses I got really steamed up while getting the boxes ready it was very uncomfortable I could not see what I was doing. I usually get a bus back around 3 pm but I got fucked about by arriva bus wales it did not turn up well not for half an hour and I am not too sure I would have got the the thing as

lost

  It seems to have gone from one extreme to the other with the level of visitors for months there were only some flouters now they are like all over the place and don't seem to feel like its time they fucked off. It has been a very frustrating day being not able to find that little bastard I can't recall where I put it down last night it can't be far and I am sure it will turn up one day but in the mean time I am one dow and will have to ring the hospital and then wait for days for a  replacement if they actually do agree to send me one.. It was going so well well it was a decent weekend until this unfortionate episode of the lost thingmy..  The weather has been fine and the football had a godo result, it is depressing that the infections are going up and its only september an they haven't gone back to school college etc yet and the bad season for infection is a long way off. The cars are still getting on my nerves too I am not sure whether to buy a thicker carpet or no

bread

I had a go at bread making again and it was not that good again it still didn't rise like I would like to  I am not sure how to get to rise maybe I will try another recipie. I was peroccupied with my past again while making the bread and about how bad my childhood was and how bad my time was at school due to the abuse adn the fact that I came back after trying for so long to get away from the place. One of the local bus services that stopped during the lockdown is back and running which is good as i can use another bus service as opposed to arriva.  I went to sort out the picture frame today but it will taek a couple of weeks   

wrong

I seem to get lot wrong these days my over reaction on Sunday and now I seem to have to it wrong regarding the delivery of an order.  The thing from facebook came today I thought I had been ripped off but it seems not but I did email them and did not get a reply twice I don't really know what went wrong. The experience or what I though was the experience had got me nervous about shopping online but anyway I have it now which is good I feel bad for complaining I will see if I can apologise no fool like an old fool. I I seem to be spending a lot of time insulting people on line these days on facebook I seem to have or feel that I have control I guess. This situation of the isolation I feel is not good and having to be stuck in the house today due to shit weather is not good the weather is as bad as me all over the place it seems.  I got that wrong too I thoguht it was going to be only a bit of rain I must have read the forecast wrong.  I spent the morning messing about with some tech
