Witterings are, well they’re witterings really. They’re not uncategorised posts but don’t really fit into anything else

Something in the shed?

For a while now we’ve been hearing odd thumping noises at night from outside and one morning they either woke Kathy up or stopped her going back to sleep. At first we thought it was our neighbours daughter ( who lives in their shed ) doing teenage girl things. But the other day I was […]

Eternal Salvation?

Do you seek Eternal Salvation? Do you? I think we’re all used to Jehovah’s Witnesses turning up on our doorsteps in their sinister black suits looking like something from a Sci-Fi movie. I’ve often wondered if its worth asking if they have one of those nifty devices for wiping your memories like they do in […]

Putting the Brakes on

Well, it was really putting the brakes back on, once we’d got them off in the first place. It all sounded so simple really: Change the front brake pads and disks on the Saab 9-5 Estate. The car has done over 165,000 miles and the brakes were “grooved” according to its last MOT and had […]

Technology

Last night was Pub Night at the Bath Tavern where a good time was had by all. There was a world first event last night, in that the page for the pub was edited to update the beers on sale and who attended, and it was done from the pub which meant that no-one had […]

Androids

A pleasant weekend

Well that was a quite enjoyable and pleasant weekend. I picked Nick up just before 7pm on Friday and we loaded the new fridge into the back of the car and headed off to the boat. The roads were strangely quiet and we got to the boat at about 8:20. We plugged in the power […]

It’s that time of year again

A few years ago now four of us decided that we’d get to together for a weekend of chatting and drinking. Now as all of us are married its awkward but Nick and I had an idea. We have a boat so why not go to the boat and do it there. For a couple […]

Eli Stone

When Eli Stone first aired on Sci-Fi neither Kathy or I really showed any interest in it for some reason or another, maybe we weren’t in the mood or something else was on TV at the same time. But this past week Sci-Fi has been re-running Series One as a precursor to airing Series Two […]

Alone

Its very odd how you don’t realise just how much you miss someone until they are not there. Kathy flew out to Maine on Saturday to spend Thanksgiving with her family. Its the first Thanksgiving since her dad died and she just had to be there for her mom. I usually go over but the […]
