A long long time

WELL... since my last post those many months ago a lot has happened,

Firstly my helicopter lasted a grand total of 2 weeks. It met its end in a run in with my mother and a heavy book, that’s right she squashed it in cold blood and broke one of the wing things off I was rather unhappy to say the least!!

I FINALLY LEFT Sony at the end of October I was there roughly a year to join a glass unit fabrication company (they made the glass bit of double glazing) I WAS NOT A DOUBLE GLAZING SALESMAN!!! Lol My main job was only to input orders but I soon was asked to start thinking about getting a website together and I also made a useful calculation program for working out unit prices which I planned to give to customers to stop them ringing me to ask price questions because they couldn’t work out there price list. Unfortunately only 3 weeks into my new job the company went into administration and shut down which was very disappointing to all the staff as you could imagine. This means I am once again on the doll which I don’t like!

A day after getting layed off I sat my first driving test which I failed, I failed it 10 minutes in due to the fact I stayed in the right hand lane on a duel carriageway, with I didn’t think warranted a fail only a minor fault myself but the examiner knows best :s. Since then I have sat another test, did much better this time I got close to the end then screwed up on a roundabout and cut up another learner and his instructor just before the boys test. Opps never mind I wonder if he passed.

Xmas wasn’t that much fun this year as I didn’t have the money to get pissed all the time :'( I did get a new phone, The Sony Ericsson k550i)

Most recent thing I’ve had happen to me is last night I was joking about with kyles girlfriend Shannon and wrote a short passage to describe how she came over to the uk to learn and start fresh then met Kyle etc etc it was rather good and they liked it and didn’t believe I made it up off the cuff as it were, Kyle thought I thought it out a lot, and he thinks I should try my hand / finger tips at writing. Now I think it mite be good for me but I do see a few problems if I sit down and think write something my brain goes off on holiday for 2 weeks and I cant think of anything, which means I get annoyed hit my keyboard and then go watch TV, the other is that I cant spell, I can say big words in the right place in conversations but cant spell them.

Well that’s a quick catch up for you all speak soon!

Helicopter


I did a very childish thing Friday, which was on an impulse buy a RC helicopter from amazon and wanted it so bad i payed £4 to get it next day (Saturday) hehe. I haven't really worked out how to fly it yet but its durable enough as i have crashed it like 30 times in a day and it still works.

On a slightly different topic I'm now trying to learn PHP, as i hope it will give me another way of doing things but only time will tell i guess ill keep you posted.

Week of Freedom

This week has been a good week for a change. I HAVE HAD SOME TIME OFF.
It has been a week full of activity as well.

Tuesday = my 21st not action packed affair only got money and went for a meal in a pub with my family... well mostly at least, my sister went somewhere with her mates and my dad was away with work which I oddly wasn’t happy about but ah well past is past. (Gonna get pissed Saturday with boys from the football).

Wednesday = Very odd, Kyle asked me to go to clearing day with him for a teaching course he wanted to do in uwic uni in Cardiff, not hard to work out where to go... or so you would think. We got to town early and as we had time I thought I’d buy some stuff then we went to what I thought was the campus near the cricket ground. Oh how wrong I was. We then had to run across Cardiff Park to another uni campus by the town hall only to find the wrong place again.
The receptionist this time was helpful and called us a taxi because we discovered the campus we had to go to was about 3-5 miles away and Kyle thought he had to be there ASAP to get a place so we thought.
When we got there the people told us we had got the wrong campus again, but it was an uwic one at least on the over hand they couldn’t tell us how to get to the one we needed. We had to get another taxi to this place, the short of this story is
Taxi Bill = £12
Hours Wasted = 3 Hours
Kyle Getting on a Course = No it was filled in June.
Plus Point = I saw parts of Cardiff I aunt seen years if not at all.

Thursday = Was a very good day after a few weeks of worry and stress I finally passed my theory test so now I can take one more step to getting a car and driving. I also handed my CV in to a shop in Cardiff and applied for another job so hopefully I can say goodbye to Sony.

A Worrying TOY!

I have heard that some people think that toys are getting to extreme and could be teaching children bad habbits and behaviors. This I hope is not the case as during a trip to town today with kyle and shannon we found this toy.

Basiclly you touch it and it giggles the bangs its head on the desk a few times. I got a funny name for it does anyone else have any ideas?
