So most of my time has been consumed with getting the renault back on the road.
Well engine has been stripped and new valves fitted and promptly put back together.
It started which shocked me and ran quite happily on the drive.
It rattles a bit but the followers need to fill back up with oil so it will stop at some point.
Brake was seized on the back wheel so a tap with a hammer son fixed that.
need to check water and oil levels today and clean it out as ta2gerlz was not famous for keeping the inside of cars clean or come to think of it the outside either.In the 3 years we have had the car i think she has washed it once if im lucky.
Needs to be MOT'ed but hopefully it will sail through.
The rest of my time has been taken up with Grace and World Of Warcraft.
Level 31 warlock at the moment trying my hardest to get to level 40 so i can buy myself a white tiger to ride round on.
So there it is a long awaited update.
see i do use my journal sometimes |

Finally today is the day we have migrated our dsl service from what was a good isp known as Plusnet to a much more helpful and totally unlimited service and BT also MAXDSL'ed it at the same time.
Happy times are here again.
Oh and if anyone asks would I recommend Plusnet then the answer would be NO.Leave them well alone. |

So the room is almost finished all we need is new curtains and bookcases but all the main work is done.
Renault's engine is all back together ready to go to the Renault Garage to have its new one fitted once we get my compensation money.
Gardening wise there has been more digging to get another piece of ground ready for veggies and also the cutting down of Damn conifer trees along the back as we had the delights of kids down the bottom of the garden talking about setting alight to all the old tree cuttings and dead wood there. Not such a good idea when we have a thatched cottage next door so we decided it was best to cut them down so we can see whats going on, mind you its hard work when you dont have a chainsaw.
New phones have arrived and all caroline wants to do is swap but that ain't never gonna happen, I'm keeping my V3x and thats final. |

Well the past few days have mainly consisted of Gardening during the day (those of you who read ta2gerlz journal already know this) and painting in the evening.
Hopefully get all the decorating done tonight once the little delight we call Grace goes off to sleep.
Ta2gerlz is curled up on bed with a migraine so its another single handed mission on painting.
Silence appears to be happening on the baby monitor so hopefully I will give it 5 mins then finish off the living room. |

Im back in the world after my short break of a year or so.
So what have I been upto well basically absolutly nothing, just sitting around with my family and going back and fourth to hospital seeing surgeons about whats the next stage in repairing the damage to my hand.Now I am waiting for an appointment at Addenbrookes to see if this surgeon can do any better than the last 2 bodged attempts to repair it.
Picture of hand after last surgery just for the sake of it.
Also Ta2gerlz has decided its time for me to get another tattoo so here's whats hopefully gonna be the next piece in its 3 stages that its at so far.(more will follow when i have finished them)
Nothing else exciting has happened in my little world today other than some work on trying to fix the Megane (ggrrrrr) and some gardening with Ta2gerlz and Gracie. |

| The joy of fish |
[Nov. 28th, 2004|11:49 am] |
Another fish died today so that now makes 3 in three days (doing well!!)Tested water this morning to find ph,amonia and nitrate levels all sky high.
A water change for bottled water seems to be the main cure with a few added chemicals.
Brought new angel fish today to go with the other three aswell as frozen bloodworms for food.
Ta2gerlz is now watching fight club behind me which seems to a favourite of hers. |
