Woke determined to get a load more shredding done… again!
WC’d and while suffering on the porcelain I got this idea for a poem, ode, rhyme whatever for me Inchcok site of WordPress. ‘Me life in prose’I’ll probably call it, ‘It’s Been a Funny Old Life’ or something like that – ideas ran through me head and everything else seemed to fade into the background?
I’d had some dreams I think, because the ‘Little Inch’ had been active and he was bleeding, but can remember none of the dreams now, so annoying that innit?
Went down and started the laptop, made a cuppa, took the bags out to the bin for the visit of the ‘Refuse operators’, and fed the pigeons as I did.
I chatted with a bloke on Facebook last night and he is in the same situation as wot I am with his Windows Lumia mobile-phone – lost and confused!
Made another cuppa and took me morning medications.
Then I got the header done for this page and set about creating me ‘Funny Life’ ode – I had this urge to get it done while some ideas from earlier were still in me head.
So I did. Took me hours.
Then I tried to master the new mobile and learn how to store numbers – huh!
Had a wash and shave and readied missen for me walk to town to see the Age Concern people.
It was warm and bright when I set off down Mansfield Road.
A couple of pavement cyclist en route but they were too quick for me to get a photo of them.
Up and over the hill, and on me way down on the opposite pavement a poor chap lay prostrate face-down, his carrier bag at his side?
The police officer didn’t touch him while I was there watching.
Annoying not knowing what had occurred innit?
I poddled on about 600 yards and heard the ambulance approaching the poor devil.
It was here I spotted the Nottingham Street Art in the side of the road – it must have been a recently completed bit of art, cause the vehicles had not yet crushed it. I named it “Unloved Fodder and the broken fork” Hehe!
I pressed on and called in the Age UK offices and spoke with the receptionist asking if she could identify Steve’s number on my phone. She could not help. But she emailed Steve asking him to call me.
I had a walk through Trinity Square, and the food arena actually had people eating al-fresco in it!
Folk near naked taking advantage of the excellent weather. (Mind you, it didn’t half change a few hours later I can tell yers – blimey, not half did it change!).
I managed to get a shot of some ‘Bling’ for the TFZ gals.
Quality stuff this time – or quality prices anyway!
£6000 (USD $9156.83 – CAN $11432.56 – AUD $12016.66 for a ring? Pretty yes, but even so that’s a lot of dosh!
As I walked around the Slab Square in the City Centre I saw these kiddywinks being led across it. At the time I took the photo I had an excellently suitable and witty quote in mind to use on here when I posted it – what happened to that excellently suitable and witty quote I had in mind I don’t know. It seems to have faded into the ether… Huh & Tsk!
Probably something about trainee shoplifters or similar. Hehe!
I wandered into Clumber Street and called in the EE shop to beg for assistance on how to store numbers on me new mobile.
A patient lass showed me how and made sure I’d got it before letting me leave the shop – bless her. We’ll see later when I try it after Steve calls.
Out and up the street towards the bus stop.
Where I experienced a rare sight indeed!
Nottingham pedestrians crossing the road with the pedestrian lights on green!
Yes, it’s true, I took this here photo to prove it! Haha!
Caught the bus, dropped off in Carrington and walked passed the chemist, over the pelican lights and up the hill to the GP surgery to see if me extra prescriptions were ready.
They were.
But it had been sent to the chemists!
Back to the chemists and collected them.
On me way, a Nottingham Pedestrian Cyclist nearly had me as he sped by – I called out questioning his parentage but he either didn’t hear me or ignored me.
The Git!
Avoided the ganglets mingling around.
The wind suddenly got stronger and the trees bowed it it as I got towards the fleas-pit and made a cuppa.
The sky suddenly went awfully dark… I mean really dark.
And the clouds started moving very quickly across the sky.
Steve from Age UK called, he is going to speak with Nottingham City Homes on Tuesday for me.
I then proceeded to store his number with his name afterwards – in me Lumia phone, Yaheeee!!!
Nosh tonight, thick bacon in chopped tomatoes in tomato juice with herbs, with brad thins.
I really enjoyed this nosh.
Fell asleep early – in one of those awkward positions – you know – where you wake up twisted and in agony, aching all over! Hehe!
Then woke up every half hour in a ratty mood with yourself, because your tired and only want rest?
