Up at 4.30 am as Isabella [pictured above] for the last few weeks had decided to enforce sleep deprivation on her parents. So yes I am very tired... trying to be John Waynesque , but with with mixed results. At just after 5am I was washing up the dishes I was too tired to wash from the previous evening. However, having spoken to a certain Francois Nel later in the day, I am considering utilising my newly found downtime to re-launch my athletics career. Walk to Work: It was an automobile this morning, courtesy of Mrs B who has not been too well of later [nothing more of later] Lunch withOUT the box: Met an old friend Mario Risoli for a quick coffee. We then stretched our legs on a short walk in the centre of Cardiff, where at its market I bought a quarter of mixed toffees and then later a Cornish pastie. Random Thought: Man on the Moon: I could murder a curry! Man on Mars: I wonder what the man of the Moon is having for tea. Woman on Pluto: I wonder if the Man of the Moon will call m

June 16 lunchbox

Was up at 5.30am to the sound of Isabella basically saying she was up and wanted to get on with the day, which was slightly at variance to my view point at the time. Mrs B is not well at all... having spent the weekend in duvaland. So I had to drop Isabella to nursery for 8am. Managed to get back to our humble abode for 8.25pm for a quick bowl of Weetabix and a single piece of toast. Walk to Work: This didn't go to plan. A swollen knee meant I had to catch a bus on Cowbridge Road East into the centre of Cardiff. One of the passengers was talking loudly to a not so willing passenger about how if you take a life then you should get life. When I got off he asked if someone was going to work [I had the sense that he was not really economically active]. She replied she was and he made me laugh when he replied: "Good for you." Lunchbox: That's at home so was forced to limp across to Boots for a not very impressive deal meal. Random Thought: I love Italy... it's the gr

Lunchbox June 10

Not really had the desire to blog of late... not that anyone is interest ED . Had tonsillitis , took some penicillin, but came out in a rash and my skin started to sunburn like peel. But after a few days of abstinence it was back with a vengeance, so I'm on some terrible antibiotics instead... I mean anything with an anti in it is sort of in your face. Mrs B is not very well too. And Isabella has been, now what's a good word if she reads this in a cyber dust filled archive in 2019? Oh yes challenging [that's code for the commencement of the terrible twos]. So there you have it. Such joy of joys of late. And yes, sure I know things could be a million times worse, but this is sort of cathartic and I'm not even thinking about screaming at 5am. See you all again soon

June 3 lunchbox

Not much sleep last night, with our 2 year old daughter being sick through the night. Breakfast: Just a good old fashioned bowl of Cornflakes with semi-skimmed cold organic milk walk to work: Into the centre of Cardiff with my i-pod semi-blasting. It was cloudy, but pretty agreeable. I could have walked on for a few more hours, but that was not really an option, well it was, but I didn't take it. Lunchbox 2 ham sandwichces 2 cheese sandwiches 1 apple 1 banana Isabella rang at midday to say she wanted to give me a hug... that was a very happy moment. Random Thought: I will leave that to you... oh yes please
