ChitChat is a way for me to add small snippets, about my daily life, to this website. I'll update it whenever I've got anything interesting to say.

In a misguided attempt to lose some weight, I have just been for a run!

Actually, it was part run and part walk. Still, it was nice to be out and about when every sensible person was still cuddled up in bed.

Don't think I've lost any weight so I may have to try again tomorrow!

Wow - another good night's sleep!

I don't know if it's my new medication or......

The fact that I was cuddled up with a beautiful woman?

Either way - I ain't complaining!

I had planned to go out and take some photographs of the church - Notre Dame du Foncier.

However, it's bitterly cold and raining so I think I'll stay in doors instead.

Perhaps tomorrow?

I've just been out for a little walk along the canal.

I couldn't find my black bobble hat and so had to wear my red one.

I remembered that I last wore my black one when the Girlie, Joshy and I went to the Bar de la Ramparts last night.

I must have left it there.

I'll have to go back to get it! It's a hard life......

Having had a difficult night's sleep I decided to go out for a walk to clear my head.

I decided to have a stroll around the Jardin de Bois d'Amour, of which I have talked about on this site.

I had my camera with me so I was able to take some photos to prove that Spring has arrived in this part of beautiful Brittany.

A cold and foggy start to the day. Now that the fog is lifting it looks like it might be nice.

I've just been down the road to the bar for a coffee and a read of the paper and then to the boulangerie to pick up the bread for breakfast.

It's Saturday so the market beckons....

The Girlie seems to be taking this Spring Cleaning lark too far! I'm sure that it's the council who are responsible for cleaning the streets?

Have just got back from playing Boules in the local park - in the dark - photos (but certainly not scores) may follow later on BretonDiary - not that I'm bitter about losing!

Yes; I know that it was totally my fault, waking up in order to have a masive sneezing fit! And I know that it was also my fault not wanting to have that sneezing fit whilst I was wearing my mask - a mask full of snot is not a pretty thing!

And it was probaby my fault rolling over in bed! But who in their right mind invented beds that are 3 feet off the ground (with no side rails!) - I mean to say, that's probably the worst decision ever!

And who invented hard wooden floors; so that, when you fall out of bed, you make a sound fit to wake the dead (or, in my case, everyone who lives withing a 15 mile radius?)

I mean, it's not normal, is it? If Stalin had won the election, it woulnd't be allowed - we'd all have beds 6 inches off the ground and our Grandparents would be scaring us with stories about Maggie Thatcher - the wicked witch of the West - you know, the one who bites the toes off children who can't sleep!

And they call this progress? Anyway, am going to try and clamber back into bed and get some sleep - perhaps I'll dream about 5 year plans or invading Poland? And who said Insomnia isn't a political weapon?

Am just off to bed now - having had the meal to end all meals! The Girlie went to the market at Josselin this morning and bought some steak from the butcher there. I don't know if it was the steak or her cooking but whatever, it were... Bluddy Luvverly - nice on the outside and pink in the middle! If you're ever in Josselin on a Saturday morning, it's well worth looking out the stall of Gildas Eonnet - the best beef you'll ever eat!

Only 2 things I've got to say... (1). If I were to die tonight (perhaps being attacked by a bunch of Lego Flesh Eating zombies - I think that's the Joshy influence!) - I'd be happy to die, just cos I've just eaten a wunderfull meal (cooked by a wunderful chef - whom I happen to love)!... (2). I love sitting in the bar, in Josselin, listening to the English people telling each other about the nice meat they got from the van, half way down the high street during the Saturday morning market at Josselin - totally not knowing that that van sells very, very good meat - all of which has come from Black Beauty - that never fails to make me laugh!

A good day - am waiting for my tea (the Girlie got some luvverly meat from the market at Josselin this morning) and, we have both been busy with our new project... www.BonGite.com - am going to have an early night tonight because I've signed up to do a video of Josh's Lego tomorrow - for more details.... watch this space!

Sat 15 Nov 2008 12:04:34

Warm but overcast morning - might pop out to take some pics of doors later on - for the moment am just getting on with my new project... www.BonGite.com

Spurs are winning - against Liverpool! Might not be able to post for a few more days - too excited!

Wed 12 Nov 2008 11:57:55

Right - the Girlie has just gone off to work so I've put on Christmas Internet Radio PlayRadioUK - Christmas Radio all year round - Santa's favourite radio station!

Wed 12 Nov 2008 11:14:10

Sunny but cold - Josh and I have just been out to the bar (leaving the Girlie in bed; she deserves it as it was her first night at work, last night.) We bought the bread and have just had a slow breakfast. Girlie is off to work at lunhctime and then we are all off exploring doors (long story - I'm sure you'll read all about it here!)

Tue 11 Nov 2008 12:29:59

Well, the sun has come out at last and the day is starting to warm up. The church bells have been ringing for the Armistice Day Service.

Tue 11 Nov 2008 11:17:41

A bit of a storm last night means all the garden furniture is all over the garden! I think I'm going to wait until it's warmer before I go and sort it all out!
