Oh ja I forgot to update: I got promoted at work – I am now *Acting Manager of a Care Unit for Forensic/Mental Health ..

Oh diddums, so I made a mistake – Miles being Kilometers – I love lb’s and stones not kilos and other shit! So I am 100kg *approx 16 stone – and after a weekend of Swedish visitors and partying I managed to get back to the gym today; X-Country Trainer – 3 km Treadmill – [...]

Day 2 - 3 miles on the X-Country Trainer, 16 minutes – followed by a sunbed session.

Today was my first day at Fitness First. After I was inducted by Monika, I set off.  3 miles on the X-Country Trainer, approx 30 minutes.

Ah well, yesterday evening when I got back from my medical I had arranged to visit the Fitness First gym in Kingsbury. Well I ain’t getting younger and following the car crash in 2007 I can not really use my bike and the weight keeps going on, but Mats Åke is also a feeder. The gym [...]

Well Mats Åke and I were out in town on Saturday. We were at Back 2 Basics for our lunch. Mats Åke’s friend kept suggesting we meet, but it being the case that it was US who were to leave lunch and go looking for them. Fuck that for an idea. We then went to the Cider [...]

WOW, talk about recovery time! Yesterday Mats Åke and I went into town to meet friends. I am kind of in recovery mode from the perils of cider consumption. We hooked up with Mat and Cormac at the Kings Arms on Poland Street. Then later Brenton and his husband Lubor arrived. It was actually nice even [...]

Well yesterday was the 10th Anniversary of my late partner Barrie’s death.  They say that it is harder to lose a partner because unlike losing a relative, that person chose you especially to be with I woke up and felt horrible, kind of lost / disoriented. However, it soon passed as I was working at [...]

I was back out interviewing yesterday courtesy of AJP. This time it was with St. Christopher’s Fellowship for a Housing Officer re-structured role. The place was easy to find down in Ladbroke Grove. A bit scary leaving it, a shitload of ambulances dashing to a Sheltered Housing complex around the corner. The interview was good [...]

I was at an interview last Friday with A2 Dominion Housing, which used to be Acton Housing Association. The interview was in Hayes over there between Uxbridge/Heathrow. Alas, it was not to be. However, the Manager and Worker were very nice and it is a shame, you rarely find such people to work with/for these [...]

Could 2009 be good? In reality 2008 was horrible. Last week I managed to pull a shift with AJP at the Wet Day Centre on Tollington Way run by Equinox. I was there again on Monday.  Communicating with service users in a wet day centre or wet hostel is hardly taxing on the brain, but [...]

Well Mats Åke and I went into town on Saturday to meet friends for lunch. I believe the plan was to go to the ‘Back to Basics’ seafood restaurant and then go to record shops and the ‘King’s Arms’ in or on the way to Soho. Well we ate at the restaurant after Cormac turned [...]

Yes, my XBox 360 as gone down and is poorly ill. This is so annoying when I was in the middle of Saints Row 2. I have tried to get a new hard drive for the 360 but 20 GB is £29 in Comet but I had to wait ages so walked out, Sainsbusry’s was [...]
