musings

What is it about this country that is so adverse to rugby ? I scoured the county on Saturday to try and find a pub/club showing the European Cup matches - the only place doing so was my local rugby club, but they wouldn't let me watch because I wasn't a member. have you ever tried to become involved in a match with only audio for you information - v blinking difficult.

On a nicer side of things, am dramatically without a vehicle, and have to resort to trains and busses. It is amazing how much one is forced to slow the pace of things down when on public transport, not only that, but all responsability for delays are totally out of your hands. And sociable - over the past few days I have met a woman who emmigrated to Egypt in her 50s, only to return to Cornwall when her grandchildren were born in her 60s, a chap who is learning to become a Pilot in his spare time, and another woman who read some novel based in Cornwall as a girl and has travelled from Americia to visit all the places mentioned in the novel. It is fasinating stuff and I am arriving at work relaxed, sociable and having done lots of work on the train. Can't be bad.

Gearing up for 6 nations in a couple of weeks, am off to wales for the Ireland V Wales game - excitment, thrills and lots of shouting - perfect.

Hello there

Well, this is the ultimate in indulgence really isn't. Posting thoughts and ramblings in the vague hope that someone somewhere will read the meanderings of a mixed mind. and actually bother to have something to say about it.
I am in the middle of the day from hell and decided some distraction is in order.

having recently been accused of the unique and quiet order of my life and lack of spontaneity, I decided a few hours later to sell my house ! up yours O.B. how's that for spontaneous, or is that more impulsive ? and what defines the difference between the two ? - answers on a posting please.

And another fine question raised over lunch by Eoghan yesterday if "the best made plans of mice and men go awry", what happens when the plans of mice go well, why do we never hear about it ?

am severly lacking car due to exploding head gasket, I now have to negotiate the joys of rural public transport to get to work tomorrow. no doubt this will give me amble to ramble about ....
