and another thing!!!

SB just wouldn't leave me alone so I,m back posting. You wouldn't believe the type of enticements she was offering, I can't go into detail, but enough to say that I am back posting.

Well it's been a while since i posted and there is not one ounce of guilt or regret. Just lost the habit of posting and got diverted by a few other projects that took up time. Nice to see some familiar tag names, I hope you are all well and I just know that you will all be heaving a sigh of relief that I have posted again.

Whats been happening??

The job finished, the UK sank deeper into the proverbial and people trusted the politicians even less. I've had a frozen shoulder which gets operated on next tuesday.

There has been lots of time for reflection and realisation. After been sacked along with everyone else the first thought was find something else to do, something that pays. Then a quote form Walden kept coming back to me "most men lead lives of quiet desperation" and I realised I was just walking back in to the same trap I walked in to when I was 16. Then an opportunity came up and I thought lets have a go. So I have jumped from the thought of a standard 9-5 job and decided to become a Mountain Guide. I'm already a volunteer park ranger so it isn't such a stretch. I've been accepted for assessment by a trail tour company and if I pass that then the next step will be to get a lot of people lost in the mountains.

I cannot describe how excited I feel at this prospect ( the guiding, not the getting people lost) I am very, very grateful to My Beautiful who just said, go for it, do it.

Life is good. I hope it is for you.

Take care all of you
