Party 2015

Image
Well the festival season has kicked off with Troyfest 2015 at Baskerville Hall Hotel in Powys. I voluntered along with my best friend Neil. It was one amazing festival, and the atmosphere was really great, and the people were really great as well (volunteers, security and festival goers) Then last weekend was my 40th Birthday Weekend - really let my self go for that one (thanks to Neil, Jamie and Skinner for making my 40th one to remember!) Got more festivals to go to as a volunteer, and as interviewer for my show and Bro Radio So far coming up is.... Lunar Festival (volunteer) Nozstock (reporter/interviewer) With the above in mind, I've decided one thing... to live life to its fullest, party and enjoy my self.  With all my aches and pains and other problems, I have to learn to live with them, and not let them dictate what I can do.  I can't live life wrapped up in cotton wool in a box marked fragile, I have to live life out side the box and enjoy it while I can.

Vauxhall Light Bulb Change

Trying to get at my side light bulbs to change them, what a cow of a job - the battery is in the way on one side, and the other side there are pipes in the way.... what a pain! - a friend just said 'take it to a garage' - yeah, right, gonna spend about £20 to change two bulbs that will cost about £1! Website guides says its simple 'twist and pull, change bulb and put back in again' - another says 'Fiddle around inside and try to prize the bulbs out. For this you'll need the hands of an elf and the dexterity of a ninja master' .... lol Job done! - driver side one wasn't a problem after working out which way to 'twist and pull' - passenger side one was more of a job - had to enlist Bill's help - on putting it back in I hurt my wrist, got a nasty mark on it!

Aladdin in Burry Port

Did recording for TV yesterday evening. St Michael's School's production of Aladdin - its hard to believe that the oldest pupil in it was only 11! - it was really amazing - well done to all who put the performance on in Burry Port

Fuel Prices

A few months ago I signed an online petition to get fuel costs down http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/lowerfuel/ Government response The existing rates of fuel duty and the rates applicable through to January 2011 were set and legislated for by the previous Government.  Under plans the coalition Government has inherited fuel duty is scheduled to rise by one pence per litre above indexation each year thereafter until April 2014. It is necessary to implement these increases as dealing with the budget deficit is the single greatest economic challenge this Government faces. Unavoidably, tough decisions are required, but underpinning the Government’s approach is a commitment to fairness. The Government has been clear that the burden of deficit reduction will have to be shared, but the most vulnerable in our society will be protected.
