The good news is that I managed to post my driving licence application form to the DVLA on Saturday. They should receive the application form on Tuesday. I hope it will only be a couple of weeks before I receive my licence back with the provisional entitlements. Now I need to spend time reading the books needed for the theory test.
I was having serious doubts about getting my licence last night. But I need to over come my doubts and push on. Getting my licence is a boy hood dream and if I can find a career that will be even better. It should certainly be an improvement on my existing job that I hate.
We had a disco on Saturday night at a local rugby club. It was a ladies 40th birthday. To be honest I found the disco really hard work as the audience were quite demanding in their music taste of 80’s punk. That said I managed to fulfil their requirements to the extent that they wanted us to continue all night, well, until the point where we had to refuse as it was 12:30am and we had run out of song ideas. Sometimes it is better to leave before things become a farce!
I am in a predicament regarding the future of discos. I have decided to temporarily stop after the next two bookings. I have a Dad situation, where he is approaching 70 and the combination of staying up late doing a disco and then getting up relatively early the next day to go out with Mum just isn’t working. It is leading to him being tired, making serious errors whilst driving and forgetting things. Unfortunately, he does not want to give up doing disco’s so it means I will have to be sly and look at arranging a set up behind his back! I am not overly keen on giving up the disco completely as it is a major source of disposable income. The next disco is not until 10th May so that gives me a couple of weeks to think up a solution/new business plan.
I managed to jog round Axbridge lake on Thursday after work, it was good to get out but annoying that my diet has been extremely poor since. Time to put that right today, I need to get back on the 3 day diet pattern I was working on before the Isle of Man trip.
I have been working on improving my bedroom again this weekend. I have brought a couple of items including two new shelf’s and a cover for my clothes rail. I am almost in a situation where the bedroom refurbishment is complete. I need pictures, computer chair and decent speakers for my computer/tv.
My plan for pictures is to get a couple of my favorite images from my past travels printed on canvas. I have a load of pictures on my ‘old laptop’ that I need to transfer to a decent photo hosting website.
I have set up an account with Gumtree as I want to sell a load of old junk that I no longer need. The first stage is to sell all the old boating equipment that I have left over. This is a new adventure as I have never been brave enough to sell old items before, I have always just binned them!
So it’s the last day of the bank holiday weekend. My plan is to wonder over to Radstock/Paulton and have a drive through the beautiful Somerset countryside, a bit to eat, do a bit of shopping and watch Paulton Rovers v Mangotsfield United in the soccer.
