Hello guy,

Sorry to hear that.

Been pretty much in the same boat myself mostly, of late. I thought I'd nailed my problems, but it would appear that I haven't. One of the main problems that I have had of late is to seriously doubt my own sanity, or at least the accuracy and scope of the foundations of my insanity. The exposure to that has been more than a little frightening, at times. I have been drowning a little. However, I have a week's break from now, and am going away with my wife on our own. I / we won a competition to stay somewhere in our campervan.

Not saying it's the solution guy, but maybe getting away for a few days would help you too.

Wishing you all the best.

It's been the plan for ages.. But then something turns up 

[guypjfreak]

[guypjfreak]

Got some art work done but paying for the it with pain so on tea and brandy.. 

Gotta be a ready for me baby Evie and lady Ruby who will arrive tomorrow morning until Monday morning 

I'm reading my dad's diary.. Just read that I got banned from my late brothers allotment by the allotment committee..... BANNED.......... Seems its been a habit of a lifetime then doesn't it..... If you knew me you'd understand lol 

Still not feeling great but thanks one and all.. 

Brandy... 

PS 

Last picture is me being rescued after falling off cliffs at winspit quarry. 

Don't know why I put that up

Thanks but it’s All about the subject and just capturing the moment.  Out walking this evening  and luckily there was a break in the clouds after a day of rain just as the sun went down. Actually was waiting for the wheel to light up but it wasn’t operating.

Nice old son

Excited. This time next week I'll be thinking about getting ready to give my daughter away, finally her wedding weekend has arrived after rearranging the date for the 3rd time. Its weird we've waited so long and now its suddenly upon us. Anyway, got the week off to avoid any headless chicken moments, tick off sheet is getting shorter, haircut is my priority, currently look like a mad professor. Feeling both excited and happy, it'll be emotional I'm sure.

@ guy - I hope you have some light at the end of your tunnel. It might be a little inappropriate to offer any advice. However, I can show you a quote that I stumbled across about 2 days ago;

“There is no beauty in sadness. No honor in suffering. No growth in fear. No relief in hate. It’s just a waste of perfectly good happiness.”
― Katerina Stoykova Klemer

 

@ Ayrshire  - that's a fab photo. You may well only have been waiting for the Ferris wheel to light up, but you spotted that opportunity. That's a gift. My wife and I can use the same camera, but there's no way that I'm even in her leaugue. that's because I can just about take a shot, whereas she's thinking about light for the photo.

 

PS - My wife lost her mobile phone at the Ferris wheel at the Shambala Festival. I got a call about an hour later from someone saying they'd found my wife's phone and did we want it back. So, we met them and got the phone back. I can't recall if they accepted a few quid for a drink right now. If anybody has any burning desire to know, I'll ask my wife, as she tends to recall such things.

 

@ oneeye - Have you got your speech sorted?

Well, there's handy that you have got that nailed already. 

Wishing you, your wife, daughter and soon to be son in law all the best for the Big Day.

You are never more than 6 feet away from Banksy. 

Me, paranoid?

I'm not.

Just ask that bloke following me, he'll tell you.

But that bloke is just a fairweather friend, he disappears when things get dark and the solitude of the night descends.

I know how you feel, I got to walk my daughter down the aisle last month, 12 months after the original date, it's a wonderful feeling. The smile on her face is something that I will treasure forever. 

I hope your day goes as well as ours did.

Love to know what you did/were growing to get banned from the allotment. That's quite an achievement Guy.

Hope you're feeling a bit better today.
