Up with the lark due to the fact that...
...I couldn't sleep...
...due to the fact that...
... I was too excited...
...due to the fact that a few things have been bothering me of late which I have now mostly sorted out leaving the way clear for us to make fresh plans.
So after being tired for all the wrong reasons I am now tired for all the right reasons but nevertheless tired. Ha ha.
Made up with an old mate yesterday. Months of angst due to a misunderstanding not even on either of our parts - what's all that about ?
In the end had one of the best days I've had in years. Three things that I had been hanging on for all suddenly fell in place. Truly instant karma. Don't delay - whatever needs sorting do it today - lightness is the thing. Rock on people. X.

CLP - being an army brat - friends are strange things to me. As a defense mechanism you keep them until you move on and then make new ones. Therefore I have very few "true" friends (no sympathy required - its fine!), having said that there are one or two that just stick there. One such friend from college (haven't "spoken" to for nearly 10 years) moved out to Oz a few years ago but two weeks ago got an email to say they were back across and wouldn't it be great to meet up - True Friend!
Unfortunately got the email late and we didn't manage but the intention was there and it made me feel GRRREAT and made me realise that a good friend is like a good heart....

Putting on a duvet cover.
Turn the duvet cover inside out, then put your hands in the two far corners, take hold of two corners of the duvet and then shake the cover over the top. The cover is now the right way out over the duvet. It does take a bit of shaking, but always works for me - good luck.

Only problem it all started ter go VERY wrong when whilst getting abitta sun in nothing but me g-string and jesus sandles and practising me acoustic guitar in preparation for possible 'X FACTOR' possibilities!!!!
Know, sorry now, yer may wonder what tune waz a practising... don't worry al tel yer.... 'Bad Moon Rising' by the Fogerty dude!!!!
Only problem it all went wrong when a accidentally missed both me B string and the adjacent G string with me pluck and inadvertantly plucked me g-string a waz wearing.... A then ended up noot wearing it az a snapped the DAMN string in two and waz left totally left and INDEED right red cheeked!!!!!
It waz a case of 'X FACTOR ter more like 'XXX FACTOR'!!!!!
Just 'ope the neighbours didn't see me or that the pap were 'iding in me bushes!!!!
In the words of The Grohl... 'It's times like these' am glad am noot famous!!!
Or i'd be bound ter end up red cheeked on page three of Sundee's News Of The World complete with guitar in 'and and snapped string on me garden grass!!!! Bare faced cheek of them!!!
Anyway.... a ended up diving for cover ter getta cover from me 'ouse!!!!
Know, sorry now, yer might think that iz more than enough trouble for one dee... well no... there's more!!!!
Later that evening a discoverred that me '6 FACTOR' cream wasn't enough and 'ad partly gone past it's best thus leaving me with a painfully red rear and unable ter sit down!!!!
A case of being red cheeked more than twice in one DAMN dee!!!
Az for Sundee.... a went ter watch the touring cars at Oulton Park!!! Much az a love going ter the motor racing a always come away feeling a little sad that a now, sorry know, deep inside of me ave goot a driving talent that a can't afford ter get out!!!
In fact a decided ter test me reactions at the start of the Porsche Career Cup, sorry Porsche Carrera Cup race, (mid you wouldn't mind a career in a Carrera just aslong as a don't go carrering off the track in me..... Carrera - know what am sayin'!!!!!) yer now, sorry know, when their all lined up on the grid... engine revs risen and on the red light waiting for the green ter.... go green.... then blast off.... a imagined a waz in one of the Carreras ready with me revs set noot too 'igh but noot too low just te rget maximum traction but noot too much wheelspin if any at all!!!!! That moment a tested meself... a imagined aving 'old of the wheel firmly but noot too tight az that creates tension... watching the lights.... revs ready.... red light comes on.... then az the red goes off the green comes on..... and up the clutch down on the accelerator fast... GOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Murray Walker the talker stylee!!)
And guess what all.... az the light changed something clicked inside me in a 10th of a second.... then with a 'alf a second delay all the engines lit up.... an immense sound and all the Porsches blasted off..... What a realised iz my reaction waz faster then all the other cars.... a would ave been first ter blast off!!! So maybe a 'ave goot faster reactions than most and thus me driving talent iz wasted!!!!!!
Or maybe it was just a time delay in the sound, az a waz standing 50 yards back, and am talkin' aload of rubbish!!!!!
Mind you it's easy ter stand az a spectator... when yer in the car it noot az easy.... yer get adrenaline... nerves.... the trembling right fooot which could cause yer ter stall.... noot a good idea if yer on pole/ waz on pole!!!!!
(disclaimer : please note the above commentations are noot mean't, in any way shape or form, ter be of egotisticals on the part of Mr B Star (one 'r' star).
Talkin' of Porsches.... a notice the doctor's car waz one of the new mighty Porsche Caymen Turbo S's.... 0-60 in about 4 seconds...ish!!!!!
At every race the doctor's car forms up at the back of the grid and blasts off ter trail the pack for the first lap in case of any incidents..... goot me thinking..... 'what 'appens if the docotr's car crashes????@?!!'
GOURANGA 09!!!!!!
PS Soz ain't goot time for me Stockmarket Tip Of The Dee terdee.... but i'lll give the name of my 'ottest 'ot company at present.... the on if a could only invest in one company and no others........ 'Autonomy'!!!!!!
Am 90% sure this one iz gonna go mental in the new bull market!!!!!!
Well when a say mental.... a mean double or treble in value!!!!
PS REMEMBER.... a did say 90%.... that means 10% it could noot go well.... but i'd be very suprised if it doesn't go well!!!!!
Check it out!!!!!

Now, I know I am completely in the minority - but it's too hot! It's just too hot. Can't sleep - it's too hot. Having difficulty getting dressed in the morning after a shower because it's too hot. Dying in the office - it's too hot.
Sorry, but it is just too hot!
Tango: I can see you are just a wee bit frisky today! My suggestion of ice pack, followed by hot water bottle, followed by ice pack may not be quite what you had in mind ....

Just about getting my voice back after 'singing' (ahem) along with the Girls Aloud at the NIA last night - jolly good poptastic show actually.
Had a good ole nosey around the area that will be featuring in the Brum blog - never been to that part of Brum and its fabby!
Didnt get a chance to listen to you CLP last night but looking forward 5.05 today!
Welcome back - but that has been said over and over so I wont go on.
hazel - funny as ever
PiP - organised as ever!
Bingo - bonkers (in an whacky nice way) as ever!
AliB - there is indeed a queue to be lyndiloo's helper - I am in it!
Tango - I would try 'all of the above' - I quite fancy that idea of a 'runner' - do they do a 'gymer' so that I can sit in the coffee bar at the gym but still clock up gym points?
Later everyone - work to do 'sigh'
