Wow isn't this weather amazingly hot? Silly statement, of course it is. Off out on the motorbike to meet Lu for a ride out in a bit, RAH!

Sat with Lu at the Fishpond, Matlock Bath. Where else would one go on the bike on a sunny day? :-)

Awoke feeling much better than I have for awhile. Read awhile, rested, lovely. Off out on bike to get my hair buzzed now... rah!

Whoohoo that's my psychotherapy course all completed! Now the wait for autumn for the intermediate.

Took Rach to see Transformers at cinema; surprisingly it was really rather good. Ageing transformer dude rocks... rah!

Michael Jackon's dead. His music was legendary. None of us know if child abuse allegations were true. He was certainly messed up. Nuff said.

Farrah Fawcett died today age 62, Ryan O'Neal at her bedside. I found that very sweet & fitting. She makes a good angel... (Charlie's...)

is sad. So many people on my twitter, facebook etc are swearing like sailors.. come on folks, keep it civilized eh? Kids read this stuff.

YES! Finally... haven't seen a wink of sunshine but I'm all done, coursework all completed & ready to hand in tomorrow night! ~bounce~

Long day. Just finished college (early tonight as done!) & next week is my last week until Sept. Sucks! Never mind, it'll soon come around.

Rainy day, but having a belated birthday lunch with Pete (QuietD) and Lelani today :-)

Going to the cinema with Rachel, Luisa & Aimee... to see Drag Me To Hell at last, whoo hoo! ~scary biscuits!~

Hmm... well that was a bit disappointing. Was expecting a proper scary, but it was marginally 'ok', & pretty hammed up. More funny really!

My Daily Twittascope - bit.ly/Gr4vU

Tired of being disappointed in & by the human race. Giving my very best & it never being good enough. Sod it... I'm off out on my bike.

There, dusted off my gloom, off out to give Aimee a little motorbike practise :-) huzzah for the sunshine x

Yay! Blowing the cobwebs away. Sunny day, gentle ride for Aimee to practice behind me. Lovely!

Now on the bikes with Lu, over to Darley Dale. Birthday headstone flowers for gran Connie, tradition.

Lovely end to the day, son Tony visited. Lots of laughter, chit chat, hugs and of course, burgers. LOL :-) x

Had a smashing few hours with the T-boys munch on the park in sunshine. Great bike ride. Watching 'Confessions of a Shopaholic', exhausted!
