My last day of work for 2 weeks!! And I only have 10 days of work left until January <img src="/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":>>" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>Off to manchester this weekend... I have booked my Pole Divas ticket, I have booked my hotel (cheap too <img src="/img/smilies/grayyes.gif" alt=":yes:" class="middle" border="0">) Just the train ticket left! I would have got it much cheaper had I done that earlier but a lot of things were up in the air so couldn't really!</p> <p>Anyway It should be good <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>Back on Tuesday with not a lot planned til next weekend! We are off to the Motorbike show in Birmingham and then probably back to Wales until Monday! Then a nice relaxing few days before getting back to work!</p> <p>Sounds all quite busy busy but hopefully will be nice and relaxing <img src="/img/smilies/grayyes.gif" alt=":yes:" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/20/counting-down-the-hours-7418636/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/20/counting-down-the-hours-7418636/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/18/of-manners-and-pregnant-ladies-7405830/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-11-18:/2009/11/18/of-manners-and-pregnant-ladies-7405830/Wed, 18 Nov 2009 09:55:01 +0100 <p>On the train this morning, I was texting D and mentioning that there are never any seats available on this particular train anymore, and that I might be better off getting the one before it.</p> <p>He replied saying that yeah maybe an option, else stick a pillow up my top <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>Sadly though, which I mentioned, I don't think anyone on that train would actually notice a pregnant lady standing. Everyone is far too absorbed in their own little world on the train these days! The tube may be a different matter but its a sad fact of life that nearly every time I have seen a pregnant lady offered a seat, its a woman who is offering. I don't object to women giving up their seats, I have done it myself a couple of times, I just find it a bit sad that more often than not I will see a man raise a newspaper or look in the opposite direction pretending he hasn't seen. Yes i admit, there are some women like that too, I just think it would be nice to see more men with manners!</p> <p>I remember once being quite worried for a pregnant lady... she was standing on the platform right where the doors were and I could see a man walk round and I <em>knew</em> he was going to try and push himself on the train! I made sure I put my hand on the tube as I got on though so he couldn't push passed this lady <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> It was at either Victoria or Kings Cross so very full places and rather scary at times <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/18/of-manners-and-pregnant-ladies-7405830/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/18/of-manners-and-pregnant-ladies-7405830/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/17/a-count-down-7397156/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-11-17:/2009/11/17/a-count-down-7397156/Tue, 17 Nov 2009 10:03:10 +0100 <p>Only three more early mornings until December for me (well for work anyway, Sunday I'll probably have to get up early!) And only 13 more early work mornings left for the entire year <img src="/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":>>" class="middle" border="0"> I suppose that is a big benefit of not taking holiday... it all gets used up at once, near enough, making for a large amount of (needed) time off! I guess it makes work that much more bearable <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>So I am counting the days til the weekend, knowing I actually have a fair amount of work to do until then so hopefully it will go quite quickly!</p> <p>I<em>really</em> must get my butt in gear and organise the hotel and train tickets for Manchester though <img src="/img/smilies/icon_confused.gif" alt=":-/" class="middle" border="0"> But its pay day tomorrow so I may wait until then <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/17/a-count-down-7397156/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/17/a-count-down-7397156/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/16/monday-morning-ramblings-7383688/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-11-16:/2009/11/16/monday-morning-ramblings-7383688/Mon, 16 Nov 2009 10:02:58 +0100 <p>I am sure I had a fair bit to write about today yet I can't remember any of what I wanted to say!</p> <p>It wasn't anything I had done, after all I had a rather lazy weekend, doing not very much whatsoever! Although I do feel I needed that! It was nice to lay on the sofa and just watch tv all weekend, dozing if I wanted too <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> I did manage to fit in doing all the washing, cooking a roast, making 2 batches of egg mayo for D's refs for work, along with rather a lot of washing up!</p> <p>Tonight I think will be another lazy one, I will probably make a pasta bake as its rather easy, and find something decent to watch on tv! Which is good as tomorrow its Pole Dancing, Wednesday is Guides, Thursday I am supposed to be out for dinner with workmates (a years celebration <img src="/img/smilies/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" class="middle" border="0"> ) Friday is Pole Addict, and then the weekend is booked up too (although I haven't booked anything for it <img src="/img/smilies/icon_confused.gif" alt=":-/" class="middle" border="0"> I am supposed to be heading to Manchester on Sunday!).</p> <p>But despite all that I am on a countdown... next week I have entirely off! I can't remember the last time I had so many days off in a row <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> I was going to take 2 weeks off but apparently I have a lot of work heading my way this week so I can't! Although I will be taking 3 days off between now and the 18th of Decembe, at <em>some</em> point if I can't carry them over!</p> <p>Although what I would do with 38 days holiday next year I have no idea! (I am definitely allowed to take 5 over, but have 3 more days I need to take!)</p> <p>Anyhoo I guess I should get to work <img src="/img/smilies/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/16/monday-morning-ramblings-7383688/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>mondayworkweekendtime-offhttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/16/monday-morning-ramblings-7383688/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/13/yay-friday-7365202/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-11-13:/2009/11/13/yay-friday-7365202/Fri, 13 Nov 2009 10:00:00 +0100 <p>Wahey! Its Friday! I have no plans this weekend so I can relax! Finally <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> I really really need it! I went to be last night at about 9.30 and was asleep almost immediately <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> I <em>did</em> wake at 5.30 this morning though <img src="/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif" alt=":roll:" class="middle" border="0"> I dozed until I got up at 6.45!</p> <p>I drove to the station this morning, and as I came up to one roundabout, I looked, saw it was clear and committed to carrying straight on, only there <em>was</em> a car on the roundabout already... luckily just too far back to cause any problems... he hadn't got his lights on and as it was grey, and rainy I didn't see him until it was too late! Stupid people should really put their lights on!!</p> <p>Anyway, I am still a bit annoyed over the lack of results yesterday! I ended up dreaming that I got told I had failed, just! Not good!</p> <p>I suppose I should really get to work now! I do have a fairly easy morning though <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/13/yay-friday-7365202/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/13/yay-friday-7365202/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/11/am-i-here-or-there-7349870/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-11-11:/2009/11/11/am-i-here-or-there-7349870/Wed, 11 Nov 2009 09:52:10 +0100 <p>Do you ever think that you're where you thought you'd be but just standing in a different place? You'd be there rather than over here. Not that here is a bad place, just slightly different!</p> <p>Anyhoo I am sooooo tired! I didn't sleep too great last night, and really need that time off! Not too long now though <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>Pole Dancing last night was ok, I was just far too tired to do things properly <img src="/img/smilies/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" class="middle" border="0"> And almost fell off the pole, trying to invert from a climb <img src="/img/smilies/icon_confused.gif" alt=":-/" class="middle" border="0"> The poles were all very slippy last night so that didn't help at all!! We learnt a new move called ivy <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> It is very much like P1nkpr1ncess's Drama Queen but standing rather than sat on the pole and there's a lot of movement into it! Looks great, especially as it is at the end of the routine!</p> <p>I managed to find the Sookie Stackhouse book I wanted, only to discover that it is book 6 and the one I have that I <em>thought</em> was book six was in fact book five <img src="/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif" alt=":roll:" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>And I managed to drop my hat on the train this morning <img src="/img/smilies/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" class="middle" border="0"> I loved that hat!! </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/11/am-i-here-or-there-7349870/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/11/am-i-here-or-there-7349870/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/10/assessed-7344882/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-11-10:/2009/11/10/assessed-7344882/Tue, 10 Nov 2009 15:12:02 +0100 <p>I am so glad the assessment is over!

Including ones about my assessment which is today!!</p> <p>I have just under 2 hours until it starts. Hopefully I will be ok! At least it will be all over by lunch and I will be able to engoy Pole Dancing tonight!</p> <p>I even have a bit of work to do this afternoon and a few things I need to go and buy in between work and pole dancing (one of which I hope I can get! Its Sookie Stackhouse book number 5 <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> )</p> <p>I am currently listening to Alisha's Attic! Little sis had them on in the car on Saturday and I had forgotten how much I liked them so decided I needed a copy of their album <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>Anyhoo I guess I should go and do some last minute revision <img src="/img/smilies/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/10/dreams-assessment-and-music-7343111/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>pole-dancingassessmentalishas-atticworkhttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/10/dreams-assessment-and-music-7343111/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/09/dreams-remembrance-and-assessing-7335928/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-11-09:/2009/11/09/dreams-remembrance-and-assessing-7335928/Mon, 09 Nov 2009 10:02:04 +0100 <p>I had the strangest dream last night. Actually it was at some point this morning after I had woken and decided that it wasn't <em>too</em> long until I had to get up. I always seem to have strange at that time!</p> <p>Anyway in this dream someone (possibly D) had shaved their head and for some bizarre reason I decided to shave mine too! Only the clippers were very small and very crap and didn't work properly. I actually changed my mind half way through and ended up with short hair!</p> <p>Very strange! Especially as I had a hair cut saturday, with 3 colours put in <img src="/img/smilies/grayyes.gif" alt=":yes:" class="middle" border="0"> I have stripey hair now <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>The weekend was a good one. I spent it with D round my parents <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> Saturday I had my hair done and we all went to dinner for little sis's 21st <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>Sunday saw E and I along with 4 of our 5 guides at the Remembrance Service in the village. (D came along too). I love the fact our village has this service. I always find it incredible sad. We have a fair few veterans in the village who come along, and there are 29 names read out of people who died in the 2 world wars from the village. We had our company colours paraded and as we only have a few girls the scout company paraded our union flag as is tradition for Remembrance Parade. My girls laid the crosses for those named, and did really well considering there were only 4 of them! Hopefully next year I can coordinate with the Brownies and the Rainbows and have more represenation from the Guide Company. I know the Rainbow leader is keen as she is the mum of one of my Guides, so we were discussing it before the service.</p> <p>And so now I am back at work. My assessment is tomorrow so today will be preparing for that, listening to Alisha's Attic on my iPod <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>Oh and Happy Birthday to P1nkPr1ncess!

Some have so much life experience that I sit here and feel so naive despite the fact I will be turning 30 next year (very scary thought <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> ).

The first is called Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris. If anyone has seen the series True Blood, this book is what the first series is based on. Currently there are 9 books and I have just finished book 3!</p> <p>To say the books are better than the TV series is an understatement! D said to me that by the end of the TV series he didn't see the point in it! The point of the book is murder and finding the murderer. In the TV series there was a lot of added stuff that made no sense and served no purpose!</p> <p>Anyhoo I am looking forward to starting Book 4 <img src="/img/smilies/grayyes.gif" alt=":yes:" class="middle" border="0"> It took me 3 days to read the last one <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> It would have been less but I had to go to work, pole dancing, sleep, Guides etc <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p>The great thing is, they've all been on offer in waterstones! 3 for 2 <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> Although on Monday they only had books 3. 4 and 6 so I will have to find book 5 from somewhere <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>I am feeling a little lost without it to read at lunch today! I will definitely have to make sure I pick up and bring in the next one tomorrow <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>Speaking of Vampiric things, one of my guides last night, decided to ask everybody where Vampires came from!

The deny button was clicked rather quickly <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>So tonight might be rather busy! I want to go and watch the fireworks in Basildon today but I <em>really</em> need to find little sis's birthday present!! Its her birthday tomorrow and although I won't see her til Saturday, I have Pole Addict tomorrow so shopping tonight is the only option! We also have next to no food in the house so some sort of food shopping is required!</p> <p>And a handbag!! I still haven't replaced my bag that broke last week so I need to find some sort of replacement as the one I am using is far too small!!</p> <p>Anyhoo I sent my facebook message last night <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> Not heard anything yet but I have just realised November is fully booked!!! </p> <p>And this time in 2 weeks I shall be excitedly preparing for Manchester (even though I would have 3 days before leaving <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> ) and anticipating the lovely Nandos I am owed!!</p> <p>I decided I will stay in Manchester from the Sunday to the Tuesday.

It hurts rather a lot <img src="/img/smilies/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>Actually to tell the truth its just a bruise, on my claf where we were doing the inside fallen angel last night (like the outside one I did last week but with the other leg!) Its actually harder because you really need to bend the leg to get the pole in the crook of the knee! I <em>almost</em> managed to do it which is great <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>We also did inverting from a climb (so we climbed the pole and then went into the upside down crucifix) <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> I can do that fine <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> We then did 3 handstands in a row which I struggled with a little (after getting it right the first time bizarrely) which was all to do with the position of my hands! I will be fine with it as I know what I was doing wrong! We also did a rather strange spinny thing to come out of the invert... we positioned ourself as if we had just swung into the invert (holding the pole with the left hand) and pushed the floor with the right so we were spinning! It was all a bit confusing trying to figure out which way to push! Things don't always make much sense when you are upside down <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>I am looking forward to next week <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> There's not much left of the routine to learn but it will look great once I can do it properly!!</p> <p>I just need to find a copy of AC/DC's Shook me All Night Long, which I can only find tribute bands covers of on iTunes!! </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/04/i-have-7303954/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/04/i-have-7303954/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/04/toooo-early-7303791/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-11-04:/2009/11/04/toooo-early-7303791/Wed, 04 Nov 2009 09:09:25 +0100 <p>I have been in work about 15 minutes already!!</p> <p>Its waaaay too early especially after I didn't sleep to well last night!!</p> <p>I blame the earlyness and the sleep problems for the dropping problems I experienced in the cafe this morning <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> Luckily my phone still works!! </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/04/toooo-early-7303791/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/04/toooo-early-7303791/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/03/you-wassuck-7299498/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-11-03:/2009/11/03/you-wassuck-7299498/Tue, 03 Nov 2009 16:24:38 +0100 <p>I found <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/8338077.stm">this</a> story on the BBC website and thought it really interesting! I am pretty sure there are plenty of words out there that are regional which won't have any meaning to anyone who doesn't live there...

I decided a while ago that the nicest thing for lunch would be a Chicken Tikka baguette from the cafe downstairs. I had one the other week and it was lovely!!</p> <p>While they have the Tikka baguettes, the only baguette they made it with is the one with bits in it (you know the wholegrain thingys?) I don't really like them and would have much preferred for it to be a white baguette!!</p> <p>But standing there feeling slightly lightheaded for some reason I decided to just grab what they have and return!

The world wants to irritate me and its succeeding! The number one source of irritation is the incredibly slow connection I have to the internet today!!</p> <p>The second one is the lack of info I have for my assignment! It will be fine but I feel like there are a few small details that are absent!</p> <p>Thirdly my poppy is crushed already!</p> <p>Fourth my soup was far too peppery yet again! It would have been lovely if it wasn't for that!</p> <p>I am sure there are so many more though, leaving me with the feeling I just want to crawl out of my own skin! What a lovely picture <img src="/img/smilies/graybigrazz.gif" alt=":P" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/02/irritations-7291996/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/02/irritations-7291996/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/02/of-work-pass-trains-bags-and-hair-appointments-7290441/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-11-02:/2009/11/02/of-work-pass-trains-bags-and-hair-appointments-7290441/Mon, 02 Nov 2009 10:05:55 +0100 <p>You can tell its going to be one of those days when 1. you just miss a train, and 2. you forget to bring your work pass with you!</p> <p>In my defense though the train was a slightly earlier one than I usually get, although it did mean spending 10 minutes standing on a freezing cold platfom! As for forgetting my pass, its not <em>entirely</em> my fault for being forgetful! My bag broke on Friday, while wandering around near Charing Cross station! I don't mean completely split but the strap broke making the use of the bag impossible!! The only bag I have for use at the moment is a small black going out one!! Its not really big enough to hold every day stuff and nor is it compartmentalised! My old bag, I had one zipped bit for purse phone, ipod, keys, my pass was kept in a separated zipped part and my oyster card and train ticket in a third compartment! This meant I knew where everything was when I needed it! It was onlky natural for me to forget to look in one of these compartments when transferring everything to the little bag! Not that it would have fitted in anyway!!</p> <p>So now I am at work, having had to sign in (although they didn't really ask for proof that I work here which I find quite worrying to be honest!) and I will have to get the security guard downstairs to let me in and out!</p> <p>This week I have to somehow apply myself and get an assignment done and sent off by Thursday at 9am, and revise for my assessment which is next Tuesday morning! With any luck though, in 2 weeks I should be entitled to a pay rise <img src="/img/smilies/grayyes.gif" alt=":yes:" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>With much study and revision to do this week, I have one bright shining moment to look forward to... little sis is 21 on Friday <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> We are going out to dinner on Saturday to celebrate, and I also have a hair appointment on Saturday <img src="/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":>>" class="middle" border="0"> I am having Foils (Three colours!!) and a cut and blow dry <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> I am really looking forward to it as I haven't had my hair done in <em>ages</em> <img src="/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":>>" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>Well I guess I really should get down to things and work <img src="/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif" alt=":roll:" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/02/of-work-pass-trains-bags-and-hair-appointments-7290441/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>hair-cutpassbagworkhair-dyetrainbroken-baghttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/02/of-work-pass-trains-bags-and-hair-appointments-7290441/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/01/dead-of-night-random-thoughts-7284764/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-11-01:/2009/11/01/dead-of-night-random-thoughts-7284764/Sun, 01 Nov 2009 11:39:16 +0100 <p>I had one of those nights last night where I woke up and the harder I tried to sleep the more I was awake!</p> <p>Anyway, during the awakeness I got to thinking... First thoughts were about Pole Dancing and my need to practice! Next I remembered the pole is covered is something and needs a clean! So from there I had the thought that I need vodka to clean it (the Tesco value stuff, apparently its brilliant at cleaning poles!)</p> <p>I moved on to remembering once having a full bottle of vodka taking it with me when I went to stay with someone, where I promptly forgot to bring back an almost full bottle, whereby his housemate drank it and I never got a replacement! <em>And</em> It was the good stuff! So that naturally lead me to thinking of playing a drinking game with this person, drinking white chocolate vodka shots, then waiting in the cab for him for <em>ages</em> while he did his hair! I swear it was 10 minutes or so! We headed into town from there. I remember walking down some steps into a bar, as I reached the bottom, my heel caught the edge of the step and I fell hard on my knees! My companion hadn't noticed a thing and was practically at the bar by this time! Men!!!</p> <p>I am sure there were more but I did eventually get back to sleep so I have forgotten them <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>so they were the weird randomly linked thoughts I had while trying unsuccessfully to sleep <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/01/dead-of-night-random-thoughts-7284764/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/11/01/dead-of-night-random-thoughts-7284764/#commentshttp://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/10/30/too-many-thoughts-too-many-disinterested-7275151/tag:wednesday.blog.co.uk,2009-10-30:/2009/10/30/too-many-thoughts-too-many-disinterested-7275151/Fri, 30 Oct 2009 13:43:01 +0100 <p>I am in one of those moods today where I feel like I have been inflicting myself and my opinions and my problems on everyone.

It takes just over 2 hours to get there, direct from Euston and I can get tickets for £37!! Thats both ways! Of course they are advance tickets, non refundable non transferable can only use that train kind of tickets but still its cheap!!</p> <p>Need to book a hotel still and decide what time train to get though <img src="/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif" alt=":roll:" class="middle" border="0"> D's on earlies I think so I could potenially be there around 10 am!!

I have decided to do as many sit ups as possible (last night I think was 55 with the aide of the pole... sitting on the floor, legs in a hang back position then doing sit ups). I also plan to do a few eagle exercises <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> One is on the floor where you lie on your back raise your legs til they are over your head open them into a V hold for a bit close and lower <em>slowly</em>! Also a few pole pull ups as if I am heading into the eagle <img src="/img/smilies/grayyes.gif" alt=":yes:" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>I showed D the spinning eagle last night, he was very impressed <img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> I was quite pleased because I wasn't sure I was getting into the eagle enough but he said I had my legs at a little bit of an angle but not too much!

It does quite a range of food from hot snacks, jacket potatoes to salads and soup. The deli counter is great and make some lovely paninis. It has a hot bap counter which is quite nice for a change and the soups are home made. I love the soups most of the time but recently they have been having weird ones, today one was birmingham mushy or some such thing. I had Corn Chowder, which I really enjoyed the last time I had it. This time though, it was blended too much and didn't have the whole sweetcorn bits <img src="/img/smilies/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>The trouble with the soups though is they over pepper them!!

I managed the spinning eagle too, just about <img src="/img/smilies/graylaugh.gif" alt=":))" class="middle" border="0"> We did a J spin and a kick which looks like a prep for the handspring (which will be level 7 by the looks of things though).

Maybe a little wander is in order? </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/10/23/sleepy-afternoon-7229515/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>http://wednesday.blog.co.uk/2009/10/23/sleepy-afternoon-7229515/#comments
