Right....im back properley now

I havent been on here much lately due to not having much time and not being able to get on the bloody computer cos of kids, so, here is a bit of an update. We had an internment service for dads ashes at chanterlands crematorium when he was put to rest with mam. The thing that seemed so hard to take was the fact that all through my life I have always known dad as someone who always went for the best. if he had a choice of 2 suites one costing £250 and one costing £1000 and they both looked the same he would have gone for the £1000 cos as he used to say, you get what you pay for so this one must have been better quality, it seemed a little hard for me to take knowing this, that he ended up in a plastic jar that resembled a quality street jar, i looked at it and thought is this all hes worth? Martin did a great job of saying a few words as he lowered him in with mam it was very simple but very emotional.
I have decided i am going to go to college and see if i can keep my brain a little active, Allan has got me a prospectus and I am thinking about a health and safety course.
we are starting to think of xmas and are starting to get the kids presents, we have decide to splash out on brian a little this year and get him a laptop as he doesnt get as many treats as what "little shit" does (that is james if no one guessed). James has had a few weeks off rugby after he got a very bad dead leg.....i never realised that a dead leg could be as serious as his was, he was on crutches for 2 and a half weeks and it was only the skill of the physio that got his leg straight again. He had his first game back last week after about 6 weeks, it was against west hull and he got beat 64 0 but as silly as it seems with a score that size in favour of the other team it was the best game i have ever seen him play.
The car is in for the MOT on monday so I dare say thats going to cost me something, Right i will leave it at that for now and will be back in a day or two

Nice to see you back Phil. I never think about Xmas until the very last minute. I have to say this is the first Xmas/New Year I have looked forward to for years, with me not having to work any of it!

yeah we are gettting together on the 30t but I dont think the mood will be right for a family xmas get together if you know what I mean. I was talking about re enacting our boxing day parties...if that is possible.
