T-17 - My weekend so far

I went out this morning into Royston to post a few letters (see yesterday!), and something attracted my attention over in the car park of the railway station. Former Tayside Buses/Travel Dundee Volvo Citybus G95 PES was spotted by me the other week on rail replacements (now owned by Herberts Travel), and it was on this work again today.



The work was being managed by National Express and First Capital Connect "controllers', who were arguing with each other as to how to do things while I walked around the car park... and then they asked me what I was doing... lol... I've not been asked in months, and I then get asked by both lots of controllers in one visit! Bus hairies can see all the pictures here.

After that, walked into Royston, bought a few things in town and at the market. One of the market traders was telling his customers he's going to be away for two weeks next month. Bet it's not for the same reason as I am!

Walked back home, and brought us both home a bite to eat!

Incidentally, tomorrow marks the last day of the month, and six full months since Caroline & I got together...

25 days without hormones

After three and a half weeks, things have still been "not too bad" (Copyright me 1979-date!)

I've only had one upset moment, and that was with good reason. I've got easily frustrated, quite a bit. The face hair is getting worse. At night, I do get rather hot (not sweaty but close), and ironically, Caroline's diet makes her hands and feet sometimes colder. Sleep is ok once I get to it - it's taking a little longer to get to sleep, but not too bad. My eyes have been dry a few nights, but no-where near as uncomfortable as when I worked in a certain air-conditioned building. Tiredness can be a problem (see last night!)

Oh, and that thing down there keeps rearing its ugly head... it's days are numbered... I keep reminding it...

... not long to go till surgery, and then it's counting the days till I get home, then the days till I get back on hormones... then... who knows.

My Saturday evening...

... after dinner of Caroline's legendary pasta and cheese, and watching another episode of Stargate SG1, I spent most of the evening catching up on stuff. Had a look (for the first time in ages) at the website of CBS's Late Late Show, an American late night tv show which is fronted by one of Scotland's top comedy exports, Craig Ferguson. Some very funny parodies and skits, and topical material too...
