looking forward

Last Sunday I went out on the back of A's motorbike and looked at all the 125's that were available. It was great fun to instead of just looking at the bikes to actually sit on them and find out if they fit. I had to tell a few sales people that I didn't want a scooter i wanted a BIKE.

I think it is a women thing, but I always seam to go back to the first thing that you have seen a buy that one. It happened to me but I did find other possibilities but they were a lot more expensive and older.

I am really excited as I can go and pick up the bike on Tuesday. So I now have the gear so bring on the bike.

I can not pick the bike up any earlier as I have to re-enact the medieval period this weekend. I am not really looking forward to it but I have asked Hubby to do a few things for me over the last year so I really should join him.

I have just worked out that re-enactment will take up 3 of the 4 summer bank holidays this year so that is not making me too happy. I just feel that if I go and do this it is stopping me getting my veg garden going and I could actually pick the bike up tomorrow or Saturday. I am sure that the other bank holidays I will be able to find other things to do to.

Oh well I just have to get on with it!

Catching Up!

What a lot of time has passed since i last wrote.

Lilly and I have been walking a lot and she has been eating anything that has been left out!

I went to visit some Clan Friends in Holland last weekend. I was such fun! We rented a house in Holland There was 19 of us, they came from Holland, Germany, Greece and England.

The Clan leaders did their normal thing and sat in a corner for a while, discussing "business", while the rest of got drunk! They reminded me of the witches from Macbeth! I did my usual thing when I get drunk and get loud and bossy, they did not seam to mind. There was one friend there who's personal hygiene was not what it could have been, but how do you tell a grown man to go have a wash and clean his teeth?

The week before the clan meeting, I had my first lesson on a motorbike, I really enjoyed it and I I have decided to a buying a bike this weekend. I am having problems finding a crash helmet that I like and that is not too expensive. I would like a light coloured one but the ones that I have seen that I like are all dark. Oh well I will keep looking.

I meet up again with "The One", although I still care about him, I didn't have the same strong feelings that I had before. So I hope that I have got over it. But it was good to see him again.
