here we are at the week-end again...we haven't got a lot planned..Hearts versus Rangers are on the tv on Saturday...so, I've got to watch that..with my Hearts shirt on..
the weather, apparently, is not going to be great, so, no walking in the countryside...going to the shop for the necessities...

now, we're into 2011..it's been a bad start to the year...one of our best friends up North, Citizen, lost his mum just before Christmas...our daughter's father-in-law, Harry, passed away on the 29th of December,..my auntie, Tootsie, from Ardersier, passed away on the weekend of the 8th January..my brother, Sandy, nearly died with a bad bout of the flu'..and my sister-in-law, Pat's , mum was rushed to Edinburgh with a severe case of blood infection, and is still in a bad way...hopefully it'll get better now that the light nights are starting to appear...
The coalition government are continuing to dismantle all the things we've grown accustomed to over the years..trying to privatise the NHS...getting rid of all the things local councils do...trying to get everything for nothing...
