Have the last fews days on the road doing 700 miles for work visiting the delights of Warrington, Chorley and today St Bees in the West Lakes overlooking the Solway firth. Its A beautiful place but also somewhere that without the brutalist Nuclear power station at Sellafield would just be a a holiday homes place. It a great contrast as the house are terraced and grey and the people furrowed and weathered by the bitter winds after there long journey they all talk about a life and culture i know nothing of or want a part of , its about poverty, benefits the white lightening cider and the weekend its light they are in the waiting room of life biding time till it strikes midnight. I gues I am just lucky I have so much. Arrived home tonight and Sara's out in town with friends and i write poetry and drink a can of fosters frame this picture ( See below) that always makes me smile. It was take at Rosberry Topping in the Yorksrt Add Comment Post Title. 21/11/2011

and so what has happended since the last time, well I am older, happy still with the same consultancy but now work at Nuclear Power stations , which is a bit of a departure from Hospitals but getting us to it and it has it's own culture and practices. Most importantly I am as happy as I have been for years and Sara keeps me that way and I miss her when I am away and this evening I cannot wait until she gets back from London on business. It's hard to explain happiness but I she feels like a bottle of Irn Bru that was dropped on the floor and i open it and it sprays and keep on bubbling and I just love the taste. I am off to Sellafield tommrorrow on Business for the next couple of days and have now been called the ready brick kids but all the lads. I will post more interesting blog comments moving on but its a start and i Post Title. 05/11/2011

Final Blog Entry All, I am going to shut my site down permanently as of the 18/02 as its served it purpose. It started off as a site called in the Pursuit of Happiness and recorded one mans effort to find this and I wrote the tale in my book section ( Now removed ) The story was of how after 20 years I thought I had found happiness by meeting a girl I used to know only to get involved in a car crash of a relationship. You should never go back to you childhood loves Well it was a hard lesson and I have learnt it well and as a result I am with a beautiful, intelligent, cultured lady who loves life. So hence the story has a happy ending , we will get married later this year in Shanghai and have a blessing in the UK for Family and Friends a few weeks later. So Thanks for reading and I wish you good luck, health and happiness. Ps... so what became of Agnes...dont care but I am sure it involves Facebook, Flirting, A bottle of vodka a day and depression, living off her Ex..until the kids are 18. I wish her good luck but somehow I am sure she will create her own calamities.. goodnight Jane , Post Title. 07/02/2011
Strange week Car now repaired after last weeks crash, neck sore but no longer the wonky donkey and I atempted weight training on Sunday and I thinks its helped straighten the old neck. Much more training to do now as I am having 2 months solid training to keep the old muscles plumped. Still awaiting news on the Perth Austrailia assignment, should know later this week. I am planning a nice valentines suprise for Sara... details to follow but think she will love i ps... not your standard dinner and flowers.. I will send you the pics nad look on her face when we go there it will be a treat. Off to Chorley and Dewsbury on Business the next couple of days also you are on Twitter look me up under markolambo Have a Great week whatever you get up to. / Post Title. 04/02/2011
What a week, had a car crash on Tuesday on my way to chorley, hit a large pothole on the A1 south of Darlington , which span my Mini across the carridge way and smacked a kerb. car Broke down and had to be recovered back to Newcastle. I have a case of whiplash and have a neck brace to keep it still and am having Physio at the moment. hopefully be ok in a few days but neck feels like a wonky girrafe. Also I have been shortlisted for the Perth, Austrailia - 12 month Assignment vacancy with my company in a couple of Hospitals there which I hope I get . I should know by this time next week and it will be gr8 as Sarah could get a sabatical for 6 months and we could spend some time getting know Austrailia better and most importantly a year of warth and sunshine. Hope you enjoy your weekend and will catch up with you next week. regards Post Title. 28/01/2011
Its been a busy time with work, as ever, and also sorting out arrangments as to when and where we get married. We are thinking about the far east, Shanghai and a blessing in england for Family and friends, further details to follow as its not as easy as i thought it would be to arrange... typical bloke attitude Also I have applied for an internal assignment with the consultancy I work for to work in Perth, Western Austrailia for a year on a assignment to upgrade a couple of Hospitals. too early to saywhether they will select me but I hope they do its an opportunity not to be sniffed at and it would also mean I more relaxed way of lifde in a much better climiate. Sara would come out every few months or I woul;d come home quartlerly so absence will make my heart grow fonder. Sometimes you can settle for what you have in life and there is nothing wrong with that, but in my case I need to experience more than that and what life all about .. Updates to follow and a little more regularly now things are settling down again..... Post Title. 18/01/2011
And the Answer was................................Yes.................more to follow Post Title. 03/12/2010
Spent 3 days in Solihull working long, long days in sorting out a new Project contract and as part of this have managed to keep extremly controlled when at times it would have been easy to punch someone or scream every swear word under the sun. Drove home late last night in a total white out on black ice the 210 miles back to Newcastle really relieved tro get back back in one piece only to get stuck in the snow 30 yards from my house.... I just left the car and got back to a snug warm house. compared to the minus 12 last night outside. Off to see a great concert tonight featuting alison Moyet and Jools Holland it should be awesome, I will post a few pics. Its been a strange year and tragic but feel better with each day and stronger, gotta make each day count . No longer thinking about a cleaner in Fulwell other than as an awful memory and something I have learnt from what a mistake that would have been ....lucky escape ....sometimes you have to slap ya self and wake up to what people are really like. Enjoy your weekend whatever you get up to and I hope it is warmer where you are. |
