I must have been......

A hamster in a former life - if not how do you explain my expertise on this wheel?

Apologies for the absence - I am bored with telling you how busy I am, so if I go AWOL for a couple of days/weeks you know why and `nuff said!

Hope exams are going well Clair, - my son has just finished his first year and with exams over has returned (temporarily,) to the family home to bring tidings of joy, and several bags of washing.

Daughter goes to Spain on holiday next week, taking boyfriend with her, and he helps me at the market so I will be even busier on my Jack Jones.

Wife busy doing her "horsey" stuff.

Bruv - 8am start was on my one "day off" I get a week, as I recall in the Corporate world a weekend is the usual statutory 2 days off, both together, on a regular basis, for idle g*its to assemble wardrobes or annoy market traders.

Yesterday saw the weirdest weather, sun, rain, high winds, - and all under the forecast of "Sunshine and showers" - which covers everyones backside!

It was so windy that I thought at one stage the stall was going to appear on the Gatwick radar! - not very funny when you are holding the thing down, praying that your insurance is up to date.

Still - another Bank Holiday tomorrow! (oh, you`ll probably be off on that too Bruv!,) so I`m off to bed so that I am fit and ready for another spell on the wheel.

Pass the nuts someone.
