Hello All
It's been another long week but not quite as hetic as previous weeks, to start with the weather has been glorious this week the mornings have been especially pretty the sun comes up when I'm usually half way to the station, anyway it makes the walk much nicer and with a bit of a spring in my step.
My friend Bob came to visit this week he's just got back from visiting his daughter in Devon. As usual we did the crossword well I helped in beteween serving drinks and stuff. A few weeks ago whilst waiting for the Red Lion to open on Sunday(by the Cenotaph) where we met lol he got chatting to a nice American gentleman who had just been visiting Downing Street anyway a couple of pints of Guiness later a few photos they exchange addresses and the American chap shows him his NYPD badge he works in the Central Park district luckily at 87 Bob has a lively interes in all things, well just over a week ago Bob recieves a commemmorative badge depicting 9/11 as shown I thought this was nice and Bob is ever so pleased.
We also celebrated St Patricks this week so the pub was festooned in green there are a few pictures these were taken in the morning before we opened anyway a very busy Friday night yes Iknow St Pats was yesterday but we do not open on sat night so we had our party one day early the punters did'nt mind.
On Wednesday we have the second quiz night so I'm busy compiling the questions it looks like were going to have more teams this time and it seem that have all been boning up on every subject under the sun, as much as I enjoy doing this it has become almost the sole topic of conversation lol beats football I suppose lol.
This was my first week end off in a while and yesterday I did very little just relaxed most of the day only to driven out of the house due to hunger lol so chinese last night.
I went into town today very cold and windy and got caught in the hail storm which only lasted about 10 min but what a change in the weather so windy today and weather report say that there will be snow this week but not in this part of the world.
I finish up on Friday for one week can't wait, but I'm going to spring clean, my neighbour and I are going to hire a skip I've so much junk and in desperate need of a clear out, the clothes are already bagged for the charity shops.
Tommorow heralds the beginning of my 9th week of no smoking which has netted me £670, also tommorrow I start the diet wish me luck.
Thats it for now
Happy mothers day
Hugs
