21st January 2010

This is an idea of the snow we had at the beginning of January 2010

It's a cool, cloudy day here, but dry at the moment..the forecast is for tomorrow to be hopeless...my darts team, and I, are going to the Orchard Gardens, North Walsham, this evening to play them in the league at darts...they beat us 7-2 in the first game, last year...hopefully we'll do better than that, this time...Liz has got a few Partylite parties this weekend...I hope she does well..she normally does...

20th January 2010

went to Alison Beales' funeral service yesterday..it was very sad..she was only 30 and died after contracting swine flu...the service was very moving...Liz, my wife, worked with her mum, Shirley, in the local deli in North Walsham...the church was packed.....

January 7th 2010

that's the Christmas and New Year over for another year...I finished my 2 months at Sainsbury's in Norwich...it was ok, but the travelling was terrible..we had our son, his wife and grandson over from Lincoln for the Christmas, our daughter and husband came up from Poringland for Boxing Day...it was nice to be together..they all left by the Sunday after Christmas, and it was quiet again...we went out to friends for the New Year celebrations...it was fairly quiet but at least we were with people to take the New Year in....now it's back to normal...trying to get through the day...we're in the middle of a cold snap, with some snow and lots of frost...my sister just went into hospital today to have a gall-bladder operation...I hope it turns out ok...we're defosting the freezer, and it's taking a while...
