Everything but

The photo problem is sorted; bandwidth is now no longer an issue, I have taken out a pro account with Photobucket. This is a first for me as I don’t normally pay for any of my on line activities, but there was no real way round this one. But just as I was going to fork out $25 on the photo hosting I notice an offer that gave it you free if you took up an offer with a number of other companies, so now I’ve spent £15 on 2 months DVD rental with lovefilm (1 month free) and got the free hosting as well.

The photo today is call “everything but”, and relates to the fact that this boat was very heavily quipped. Starting at the back you have the bike, between the two seats, which double as storage lockers, you can just make out jerry cans and a generator, on the roof you have a wheel barrow and forward of that a wood pile. Too top off the collection there was a TV aerial right at the front and lots of mysterious bumps under a tarpaulin. The whole thing while quite shabby and untidy, had an air of lived in comfort, well used and well loved.

Just before I go and start my Saturday proper, a quick mention for yoworldblog, Lucy , with my permission, has used one of my pictures on her very stylish blog. And I think it looks very at home.

This is a good photo - let's hope the bikes don't fal off the back when they're driving the boat like they do when peeps are driving their cars lol!

Good song today as well, but can't tell if its the original or the second, more grown-up version?
Ciao

Babooshka is in her element now. The Cure then, the Goddess herself Kate Bush. Enjoying the barge scenes, very
good for the psyche. My own Heathcliff is too busy drawing scary clowns and I'm bogged down with re arranging photo files to be any fun whatsover tonight, so cheers for the
ninth wave.

I wrote this as part of the second days post: “365 different photos, I’m daunted and intrigued at the same time. Daunted with the task of taking the images and writing words to tie it all together and intrigued at what will be here in a year’s time. Will anybody see this? Will it make any sense?” 70,849 words, 367 photos, 3014 comments, and 43358 visitors from 164 countries later and it’s all done, I’m 42 and have the answer to those questions. Yes somebody has seen it and no it really does not make much sense, but that really does not seem to matter that much. I wanted to mark the passing of a year in my life and have ended up with a fantastic record of a year in both words and pictures. More than that it has changed my life, I have gained a confidence I never had, I can write without fear, my photography skill has improve and I realise that you can do nearly anything if you work at it. One of my dreams was that it would become a “blog of note”, I still smile at the feeling’s that hit...

You known how it is, you’ve loads to do and not much time, but with a little luck and a bit of careful planning and you can fit it all in and than someone makes you BLOG OF NOTE!!!!!! WOW, Arghhhhhhhhhh!. From around 25 readers to 3451 by the end of the day, and what a post to have on the blog, I nearly did not write it, it was very personal and maybe too private to share, but I known that there are others, like me, out there and thought that if it just helped one person it made the risk worth while, well its shared now. Now this is pressure, writing knowing that lots of people will read this, do I make a grand statement, do I get stage fright and dry up, no I’ll just babble on as I always do, it’s worked so far. First, Blog of note people, thank you, this really means a lot to me, I’ve read most of the blogs of notes since I started blogging and feel stunned to be in their company. Next, if you’re reading this blog for the first time, welcome, make your self at home, there’s ...

Have you ever put something off, that you really should have done, I have, getting assessed for dyslexia. Nearly my whole life I have had problems spelling, and have done every thing to avoid getting tested, why, because I was scared that I would not have it and be told I was just thick or lazy. Well yesterday I got tested, and the results surprised me. First I was informed that my reading ability was good to high, next I was informed that I have an IQ of over 120 (140 and over Genius or near genius 120-140 Very superior intelligence 110-120 Superior intelligence 90-110 Normal or average intelligence 80-90 Dullness 70-80 Borderline deficiency Below 70 Definite feeble-mindedness 70-80 Borderline deficiency 50-69 Moron 20-49 Imbecile below 20 Idiot.) They have changed the lower classification for a more PC wording but this is the original. Lastly I was informed that I am Dyslexic and my writing and spelling were well below what my intelligence suggested (that why it takes me forever...
