1 July work day

First of July! i agree with all the other "old" folk who say time fly's as you get older half the year gone already, soon be Christmas.
Sally(my wife) is getting good results at the "fatclub" Slimming world.  She has lost just half a stone in 4 weeks,  she likes the slimming world way of doing it as the others she has tried have all made her feel hungry most of the time.  She is not of the patient nature when she is hungry! Here's then looking for a slimmer lady!!

A friend at work yesterday attended the double funeral of her neighbours, tragic story.  Husband found dead in the greenhouse about 4 weeks ago.  Wife found collapsed on bathroom floor on day of funeral last 2 weeks ago.  The lady had terminal cancer with only weeks to live and unfortunately died so i guess it was a blessed relief for her.

On a lighter note today will be busy at the local sainsbugs as the 10p a litre offer is still on so i must away to do battle in the bread isle - - - -

1530hrs  Great excitement around 11:00am in the shop, the first steam train from Peak Rail to pull into Matlock railway station for 57 odd years.  You can see all the trains through the shop windows and there were lots of people around to see it.  The Peak Rail trains have been stopping about 300 metres short of the station at a wooden structure since i have lived here.  So now for your £s you get another 300 metres and dismount at a real station.  My lack of enthusiasm can be explained by the fact we live at the Darley Dale end of the line and regularly get the smell of the steam trains and noise of the diesels ticking over at the weekends.

Met my old Remploy boss in the store today he's just back from walking the Inca trail, said it was a good experience.
