A Problem or Two

Introduction

Good Afternoon to all you all lovely people at the Great WA Family, as usual do so hope that you are all keeping both safe and well.

As always the title could have been any many of things, but as I have a major problem with my computer think that I will start with that this week.

I have been having trouble trying to delete unwanted messages, every time that I pressed delete the page just shut off, phoned my man or said go into Outlook and empty your inbox, that is OK apart from the fact that page that comes up is for some University.

Just had a brain wave, if I can get into dropbox, then I could buy more space, at least I think that might work!!

The Last Few Days

Went to the opticians on Tuesday to pick up my new glasses, find that I am now using them quite a lot.

Several of the days last week saw me involved in commemorating VE Day, I have a recollection of a bonfire in the street outside where I was born, with chestnuts roasting in the embers, but as I was barely two, that is all.

On Thursday, I laid a wreath on behalf of the Branch at the Local War Memorial, afterwards a local resteruant owner invited us back for coffee, this was most welsome as it was quite cold.

In the Evening I attendd a Beacon Lighting at the local Parish Church, before laying another wreath.

On Saturday Evening I attended a concert by the local Brass Band and choir, it was quite superb, I did get a little hoarse as I sang away quite merrily to a lot of familiar war tunes. During the Act of Remembrance, which I had the honour of reciting, I also gave the orders for the four Standard Bearers, these were all Cadets from the loal Air Training Corps, they did the job superbly.

After the concert finished I decided to go for a pint, meeting several people that I have not seen for many years. Must stop this visiting the pub again, that is the second time since Yvonne passed away, as I went in on Thursday as well, I still had my medals on so I was treated to a couple of pints, most enjoyable!!

My Branch Secretary got concerned as the concert finished with Jerusalem, which I last sang at Yvonne's Funeral, she wanted me to go out, but I was OK a little blip that was all, then I sang my heart out.

Not done a great deal in the garden this week, yet to finish the rock garden, did a little pruning, as I begin to refill the compost bins again.

With the computer playing up, have done some research in my note books, getting ready for when I can use the machine properly again.

When I get back from my holidays I will pick up my new computer, well a refurbished one, so I should be able to fire on all cylinders again!! BUt that is aome weeks away yet!!

The Next Few Days

If truth be toldI have not got a clue, do have two trips to the Dentists this week, need some serious work doing as I have been having some pain since just before Yvonne died, will not go into the lurid detail.

If I still have problems with the computer, can see me doing a lot of work by pen and paper, but you can never tell can you.

If I can get the energy levels back up I could get a lot of the gardening jobs done, but I will see.

Today, for the first time a in a while I actually cooked a proper Sunday Lunch, I remembeer buying a Pork Leg, the last time that I went to the freezer shop, so I cooked that with roast potatoes and cauliflower chesse. it really was very nice. Finished off with a yogurt. With going to the dentists tomorrow, just had one glass of wine.

Think that is about all for this week.

Be happy, healthy and wealthy.

Please do stay and take care.

God Bless,

Stuart
