Long time, no blog

Gosh, its been such a long time since I last blogged. Sorry about that all. Just haven't felt like putting thoughts down on paper, or screen.

So what's happened since I loast blogged. Well AFC Bournemouth have got themselves relegated. But the way they ended the season was fantastic. Showing such committement and getting into a position where they could have saved themselves. I'm proud of you lads. Unfortunatly the scum (aka Soutampton) didn't get relegated. How unfair is that!

Bought a new laptop PC. Sue and I have been wanting one for ages and I saw a new one for around £200 so had to get it. Working OK. Execpt openatc.com doesn't work, neither does my aircraft database... *sigh* and I've forgotten my password for Ancestry.co.uk.

Talking of famliy tree, been in contact with a releative down in Oz. She has kindly send me copies of quite a few birth,marriage and death certificates of family members.

Had the odd trip doen to Blashford Lakes to do some bird watching. My Hampshire list is now 92. Though the Lessor Spotted Woodpecker that I keep trying to see down at the lakes is still avoiding me. My birdwatchers yearbook also contains lists of British Dragonflies and Butterflies for the first time. As the butterflies seem to be making an appearance of late I thought I'd start to try to identify them. First into the book this year was a 'Green-veined White'. Saw it in the garden today. One down, 58 to go!

Drumsticks

I’ve got the best boss in the world, ever. How many bosses buy you drumsticks when they know that you have broken your last two pairs of drumsticks. They’re really posh ones as well, will save them for best.

More updates were done to my bands website last night. I’m really glad that Dave is doing that site. It was my idea initially but I just haven’t had time to do it.

Blogging on the train again thanks to the works laptop. Just past the flooded fields around Christchurch. Feel sorry for the farmer but the bird life seems to be doing well with the amount of gulls/egrets/swans on the water. There was even a couple of Grey Herons there as well tonight. Thinking about it I must check whether that patch of land is in Dorset of Hampshire. I always assumed the former and so I haven’t counted any of the birds there in my Hampshire list.

Looks like Sue and I might do a cache tomorrow. First time we have done one together for ages.
