Back in the Saddle
I finally got my Internet connection yesterday! Yey!
A lot has happened since my last update, and to be honest I wasn’t even sure if I was going to bother with this blog anymore but if you are reading this it looks like I am (for now).
So….2 weeks without the internet. Did I miss it? Not as much as I thought I would. Haven’t a clue what’s happening in Rockstar though as I also don’t have Sky!! L Having moved out of the house and into the flat I seem to have less time now anyway, plus what little I have left of my brain does seem even more fried than usual so poker is probably a bad idea at the moment as tilt could be just a bad beat away.
Being unable to play has made me question why do I play? Is it just for the money? I’ve also questioned the whole on-line ‘friends’ concept. I mean how geeky is that! Don’t get me wrong, there are some people who I have met and made friends with that I wouldn’t have without this poxy grey plastic box, they know who they are and I think we would have been friends had we met in any circumstances. But counting people who I have never met as friends is just weird, we can all be who ever we want online and give out the impression we want, or even the wrong impression. Someone who had been reading my posts lately at various forums told me I’m a perv! I tried to defend myself but after re-reading them I have to agree! Hahaha…must sort that out!!
This weekend the workshop is being ‘moved’. It’s the last part of me moving out and will be more than a little weird. I know that some of you are worried about me but don’t be, there are 2 little dudes out there that need you more than I do.
I’ll be back on the tables next week, too much to sort out this week like a bloody washing machine that really doesn’t want to be plumbed in (I’m taking it personally…bastard machine!)…And tonight I have a bucket load of lasagne to cook before watching Extras.
See you around.

Welcome back, Aledan.
I hope you decide to continue blogging. Sure, it does seem weird to count the online people that you have never met as friends, but that seems to be where we are headed in this age of computer technology.
Best of luck in your new digs and I hope all is going well. I'm reading between the lines here as to what is going on with you, but hang in there.
What Michael said. I consider you a "friend", whatever that word means, because you seem a genuine, personable and interesting person whose life I want to know more about. That seems a fair job description, doesn't it? I'm not expecting you to donate a kidney or make me godfather to your firstborn (really, any child will do) but it's nice knowing you :)
Chat soon,
Mark
