Photos, Matt and Car

Weird title for a blog, but then you see before I start to blog, my head just gets filled with all sorts of ideas about what to put in it. It was the same when I was a child and I used to write a short story or an essay... I'd have my head filled with ideas which came towards the middle or the end... of course that meant by the time I actually reached the middle and the end, I had forgotten all the ideas.

So while I was writing, I would have this page of blank paper next to me, and on it would be random things, ideas, sentences (you know the type you can only think of once and then they're gone), and eventually it would all get incorporated into my story/essay/letter...

Well, this is how I work with Blogs! I get an idea, then another and then another, and by the time I reach this point (where the intro and the tangent is over) I've forgoten what I was going to say... hence the title...

Photos
I just wanted to draw your attention to the lovely photos down the right hand side of my blog! Not only am I very impressed I managed to edit them, I also managed to post them permanently to my blog... Win!

Matt
Matt has been here this weekend! We had a lovely time of fellowship, laughs and friendship, including playing Dutch Blitz to minus numbers and picnics in different places. We had a lovely time at the National Memorial Arboretum, which I will write a separate blog about when I am in the right frame of mind! (Sober not silly!)

Car
You know when something happens, and for a while it's just not funny - it's painful. And it's only weeks later you can see the funny side? Well this is what happened with my car.. I got back from having quite a bad day, to a notice from the police through the letterbox, telling me that some youths had rolled (YES- Rolled!) my car, into the middle of the road...

It had been parked up on a kerb, and some kids had decided to push it to see if it would roll... and it did. All the way over and upside down (you can almost imagine it kicking it's little legs crying "Let me up let me up"). Thankfully the police came along and promptly rolled it back upright again, and the nice man from the AA told me it was safe to drive; not a thing wrong with it (apart from some washer fluid needed topping up - but I didn't tell him I'd been meaning to do that for ages anyway... and a perished rubber cap until he looked properly and it was just dirty.. ahum)

So... for a while I have been a little over sensitive... now however I thought I would share the laugh.. I mean it is quite funny when you think about it....!!
