    Still ploddin folks ;)

    Sorry not been on with an update in my own wee corner for a while.
    Still mega busy with work which is good and also good things happening in RL.

    Enjoying the good weather, when we have it and getting away to the hills n forests.

    MSE wise things are progressing and all moving slowly forwards.
    EF is building up nicely again... after the mishap with the car.
    Things are generally just ticking over, which is a really, really, good place to be for me.

    Hoping all is well and good with everyone

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Evening folks :hello:

    Today I had a mission from the wee mammy... had to take her to the hospital for tests. Nothing serious, just routine, thank gods... So I had the day orf.

    After completing Operation Mothership I had rest of day to myself and browsed my local chazza shops. Found three SirTP hardbacks for my growing collection, £2 the lot, which was indeed a bargain, however, if there isn't a level of hell reserved for those who remove the dust jackets from books, there should be... I now have naked copies of Thief of Time, Nightwatch and Going Postal.

    Things are still ticking along, still plodding.
    Hope all is well with awbiddy

    Morning :)

    Had a lovely day hiking yesterday. We done a wee favourite hike of ours that is a circuit of around 8 miles in the beautiful Scottish Borders; Peebles - Over the Cademuir Hillforts - along the banks of the River Tweed under the ramparts of Neidpath Castle - back into Peebles. We were very lucky as the weather was great while we were oot n aboot. Got a couple of good photos while we walked but the wee hairy yin wouldn't stay still for more than two seconds or give me a moments peace to take any more...
    GF, mates and assorted small persons and furry ones all thoroughly enjoyed our grand day out :)
    Today GF and I and small furry ones will be doing our traditional Sunday Hike ower the hills followed by pub lunch / dinner, hopefully it will be nice enough to sit oot in the beer garden later...

    Have given a mate a referral for V media, so if they go for it we both get £50 off our respective bills :money: any little saving helps ;)

    Hope everyone has a grand Sunday.
    Much love from me n mine to you and yours
