Twisted Kites

Firstly you may notice a few changes. New look with my dad’s jungle cat taking the part of the header image. I’ll drop the full image at the end of this post. And a matching green background. I call it the jungle cat because since my grandparents got the ‘lively’ new dog Sammy, the cat (Kenny) has been scared of going indoors lately. So often lurks in their front garden, amongst the greenery.

Been spending so much time out recently it’s unbelievable. Spent a lot of time with N over the last few days, eating out a bit and went to see Evan Almighty too (really good film). Great company, it’s been really nice. Tomorrow night we’re thinking of driving out into the sticks with a picnic or something to watch the meteor shower, depending on the weather also. Or maybe just stay in the garden or whatever. Would be nice if we can see them, only seen a couple of odd meteors over the last few years, hardly anything.

Been so hot recently, still need to get some sort of sun tan (finish what I started back in Ireland) but rain is forecast for tomorrow onwards, but who knows what will actually happen. Camping later in the weekend so no doubt it’ll be guaranteed to rain! Rain, sun, snow, does it matter camping will still be nice whatever the weather.

Hope you are all having a good weekend.

…Jungle Cat:

After three early starts at work, a normal but short shift (1300 to 2010) today to Leeds and Sheffield-By-The-Sea. Nice girl on the front seat coming back down. Horrible rain again though.

Isn’t it annoying when it’s raining so car drivers see fit to put on their rear fog lights? I think that anybody that does this should be banned from driving for life. Well if they can’t differentiate between fog and rain, surely they don’t have the intelligence level required to drive safely.

Had a nice evening out last night (yes, after the early shift start!), went for a couple of games of bowling, the bar, a nice pub meal and then to see Shrek the Third (great film btw) with my friend, his fiancee and their friend who seems really nice, quite easy going and possibly as quiet as me. We’ll all be meeting up again at the weekend hopefully.

So nice just to get out for the evening too with good people, feels like ages! Have to start making a habit of it again.
