Change is but one of those things that we must all endure. This week has been full of decisions and truths. Emotions have run high, and to quote my blog tag line " Captain the engines cannae take it nae mare". It has indeed been one of those weeks.

Meet Arno. Half Dutch half Scottish. What a lethal combination. Sounds like a newsreader (Means he speaks the queens english not like any of these poxy regional accent newsreaders) He has been a good internet friend for over 5 years and really only met for real a few months ago now. Warning! If he takes you for a walk around town, be prepared to march!!! My feet are still sore from the thought of it all.

Parts of the house look great for chilling out. This is one of my favourite quiet relaxation areas.

I wandered out into the garden this afternoon. Imagine my surprise to discover that snow white was having a piss up in the back garden .. well I guess it was a nice day ..
What a hot day today. Was stuck indoors as usual doing training on something called 'Snowdrop'. The highlight of the day was going to the pub for a meal at lunchtime. Roll on the end of the week.

Oh Well .. another day another dollar as they say.. Another nice day out there weather wise but another one bogged down with paperwork and people who like to pass the buck. Note to Self .. never volunteer your services to anyone unless you know the full facts.

Monday. Back at work again and one hot day. It seems a shame being stuck indoors when its like this, but at least I dont get sunburnt. Its been a good day though as we got a lot of issues resolved with our trainer who taught us the system that we are using. Always nice to see him or as one of my colleagues said " oh look Paul .. your eye candy has returned" ..lol

One of the better pictures of me. No it wasnt one of those "Coffee shops" in Amsterdam. Had a nice jasmine tea and carrot cake there with Arno. Needed to sit down after all the marching that he made me do. My feet have only just recovered.
Where to start this blog. That is the question. Ihave started this because my friends have blogs and I am blogless. I guess it could be a good way of sharing my life with those who dont really want to know but are a little curious as to how a scotsman living in England copes with the stresses and strains of being an alien in Manchester. No I am not like quentin crisp.
