Things that ur happy about

but they're very obviously trying to stitch people up who renew without challenging them on the price.

The AA do this to me every year. I just ring up and ask for the Retentions Department and talk to them. I then give them a figure I have received from one of their competitiors and they drop the price straight away. It's worth ringing up and questioning the renewal cost of anything nowadays. The consummer champion Martin Lewis repeatedly bangs on that consummer loyalty no longer pays in today's day and age.

Just happy it's Friday. Have friends coming up from Bristol at 3pm tomorrow and they are staying the night. There will be no sleep till bedtime!

Pretty well finished the construction of our team's new boules piste today, having shifted and leveled another 10 tonnes of quarter to dust (the top surface) and finished the surround. Had to build a new piste (pitch) because our home until now, a pub in the village has closed.

Village Pump Festival Tickets arrived and two old friends have come up from Dorset for the weekend.

Results all round.

I became a dad for the first time earlier in the week to a beautiful baby girl. What an experience child birth is, totally amazing but I wouldn't want to be a women for all the tea in China!

No chance of that! She did watch the football with me yesterday and we won 4-0, could be my new lucky charm.

I just got a call from a Daily Mail reporter. She said "can you please give us some info about V Festival?"

I said "you're from the Daily Mail. I'm only going to laugh at you".

Nice one. I'm surprised they attempted to find out some facts though before publishing an article. Not usually their modus operandi.

Increased site traffic with the Glasto announcement so you can afford a nicer cut of meat?

I had a nice letter of appreciation from a customer sent to me today. It arrived just at the right time

Trouble is half the rubbish that gets published is because people who could give them decent information refuse to.

Think I'm getting a new (well not new, another) car. My beloved Saab 9000 which has done me proud and got through the muddiest festival fields has now reached 197,000 miles so it's time for something that, hopefully, will be reliable and less expensive to maintain.

Should be picking up a Honda Accord Estate with only 60,000 miles on the clock in Bristol next week.

Fantasizing about a career change. Writing, lecturing, counselling under consideration at the moment.

this weekend.

Sent out 2 band applications to festivals yesterday night, hoping to do more of the same this weekend.

Plus my band is recording a Live E.P next week. Should be fun.

28-18 Really a game of penalties with a bit of rugby thrown in but a result is a result.

last night in this house before we move into our new place. Daughters first few years have been here, gone blind in one eye here, marriage, death, heartache, good times, bad times....been a roller coaster for 5 years.

Quite sad really...getting all emotional lol.

Got myself a new car today. Sally the Saab was really reaching the end of her life with 197,000 miles on the clock. She's now been replaced by Henry Honda, a 2005 Honda Accord Estate that's only done a mere 58,000 miles.

Lots of electronic gizmos to get used to but should tow the caravan with ease - once I've forked out £400 for a towbar and fittings!

[BlackHole2006]

Writing a hand written, heart felt letter to the organizer of the Croissant Neuf stage at Glastonbury asking if they would consider booking my band for a slot there.

I know it's a bit of a long shot but it's worth a try.

<blow ones own trumpet> Today I have finally rolled out the new corporate GIS System, saving £19k a year with £0 capital outlay, plus an as yet untold amount of cashable savings through more effienct business processes. So yeah it's beer o'clock when I get home. </blow ones own trumpet>
