A day in the new life
The Fresh Morning
Let's be honest, this was actually starting after getting to sleep at 3am, but Westworld is a unique show and was enticing as I built a PC.Intel Pentium G4400
Asus h110m-k
Kingston 2133mhz 4GB DDR4
palit 120gb ssd
500w PSU
CiT Templar Case
windows 10
Office home and student 2016

| Westworld and PC Building at 2am |
 |
| Waking up |
But I got up and Rosie was happy to see me, not, so I went to feed the fish, Glass was dead on battery so I had to charge it. Then it was a getting change bit, sure, it was a bit of a rush but that was just to get out #dogwalkingwithomracer. But a raspberry and pineapple smoothie could NOT go amiss.

Then it was time to walk that dog, so she was eager as always, we walked and we were close to going to the other field but we decided to go to the normal one, our lovely friend Tonka was already sniffing around, but then it was the ball that rosie was wanting. So we played ball for about 15 minutes, with Tonka wandering and peeing.

Eventually it was 8am and I was walking back home, I saw a neighbour on the way and walked up the road with him, Rosie did now that one BIT. Show she decided to bite my foot and that meant it was time to get her tile Ringing, yes i have now put tile on her since she ran off when walking her in the field late one night. that sound does help her response to me quite nicely. Then it was time to get home and feed her, with unlocking the door, ending the walk and waiting for glass to charge back up to do more FPS view, but nah. So it was time to feed the dog, this was heaving up a bag of her food. Once that was done, time to clean up and finished getting changed before getting the PC and my rucksack ready to run down to work with.

| The new shoes i bought for £4.00 |
Running down was not too bad, the box is still a bulky product so its a way to pick it up without damaging the box. But after 12 minutes, I finally got there which my hands were a little bit tired as you go.
The trading day
So I got in, since my spot was different, I had to re-cover the 2 tables and that was a bit of a fun with someone else helping me last minutes, the neighbours were pretty friendly, since one of them i chat to a bit with helping him out back in the old job. But before that was to catch up with my friend and that went well to see what was going on. Then I unpacked and it was a nice way to start the day.
 |
| The stall |
Then it was a case of typing this up, getting some phone calls done and also redesigning a logo since a few customers mentioned it to me, this was with a project i'm not telling about (not gaming related), wanted to have my logo for advertisements for a collab we are doing. That ended up quite nice and more to the point of what I thought it out to be. The customer picked up the PC and paid which was nice too.
Then it is time to wait and more chatting with customers, it was heading into the afternoon and 3 hours left, things were queit, until about 3ish and another bit of worked booked and my grndad popped in to say hi and help him out with Youtube on the phone and also to tell me a delivery has arrived. Thats going to be so fun to get booked in, might not feature that but its still exciting.
But it eventually was getting to 4pm which is the last 30 minutes until I get to packup, thi will be fun...
The pack up and evening visit
So, its 4:30, a friend visits and we catch up, which then in turn, I pack everything up and head off to the home visit, I was meant to do. Standing on chairs to reach the plug is scary af for some reason, but thats my genetics from my dad's fear of heights i'm guessing.
It took 2 hours due to things going down at the wrong moment but then it was time to head off home, Running and getting breathless up the hills, which the route I had had 2 steep ones at the beginning. But eventually I got home by 6:55 and Rosie sort of greeted me, along with 2 big boxes on the kitchen table. This was interesting, since i ordered this yesterday. But alas, it was time to actually catch up with the internet while taking a dump, then it was time to walk Rosie again for her evening walk.

The Chours to get done
So, we finally get to Walk rosie again, with her ready on the lead, She walked and we played some more ball, the weather was good too.
 |
| Reqady to walk Rosie Again, |
This time, the field was quiet and the weather was picking up nicely, but it was soon nearing the dusk and just as we walked home, we were greeted by a dog nearby and he said hello to me and rosie was playful yet vocal. Then it was time to relax and cook food after feeding her again. But then it was time to weigh myself since I do this every few days, which its interesting where one weight was 188.4 then after another weigh in, it was 186.4. Then I got into my dressing gown...

After, I decided to cook a Quorn chickpea curry with some extras like noodles and sauces. It actually turned out really nice. Also I decided to carry on with the last 2 episodes of westworld before readying myself to get the vlog up, which took me on and off the entire day.

And that was it, now we have got one video left to film before I really Cain the last 2 parts of Crash and then its soon to be GOOSE FAIR.

The Windy Selling Stolen Bike
with a Thursday off in January, it was time for that monthly visit, this time I did have to sell something which wasn't important or too expensive but still something of some value. Then it the stress of the bike being stolen just as I get to pick it up to cycle back :@. The vlog is below
Inset vlog here
After the memories coming out on Monday, it was nearing a pretty normal week I work which allowed me to get done what was needed and also long home visit with bt Home Hub 2 routers stopped working in three different places in this week. that and I had to order the HDMI to VGA adaptor which wasn't too expensive either at £12. but today I decided to finally rid myself of some DJ decks I paid £70 used for, they were lovely but for me, I didn't have time to use them anymore and getting some extra money for them is a nice send off. Also my dad was nagging about my diet which ok isn't perfect but it's not like I'm doing nothing all day .
I woke up after fapping as usual and got a hot shower in, with the hot chocolate shower gel and the head and shoulders, it refreshed me he getting up and then email checking and the like before getting the bike out and the long ride began,
As I left it was a windy day with them pushing me back at certain parts of the journey along with the traffic being Cal until plymouth which the real nightmares began.
As I was passing to derriford, which has had roadworks delayed by WWII grenades, I had to cross roads and then stick to the left all the time, easier but more risky, but I got into the flyer for the first time which felt so much easier and luckily the traffic was not that bad on it until outland road had major roadwork chaos to deal with. But that passed. Eventually after 1 hour 44 minutes, i was by drakes Circus
I got in and went to Drakes circus for a pee then primark to see how the cheap jean offers were which there were some good one that I could cut to size for £5.00. I saw jeorgia as I walked in, she did smile a smirk at me before the jeans were tempting them I left. As I walked out, my goal was to CEX first to see how much that deck was worth, which i went in and hardly queues for the first time and the rep served me and quoted me £38 cash or £54 CEX credit, which i said I'll have a think, but went to wants afterwards, I went in there and asked, he quoted the same so I went to home and after usual checks, i get paid £38 cash for it and left.
The it as the usual wader around i shops , Sony, markets, nerdz, bright House, cash converters, maplin, hmv, game. There were aplenty. Then it was poundland which has it £0.50 sale and that was slightly tempting but I will be back there. Same with poundworld, which had the same offers.
Then it was into apple, which browsing was nice and the rep tried to help me buy a macbook for £1,000 since it's £100 off (10%). Again that would be tempting but way much for me to justify. So I left and made my way to the hoe.
As I was running to my usual spot, I saw some old customers of mine and waved, then the wind was strong up there, so it was a gentle walk down, passing construction of the union bistro and then to the Rock. I vlogged and typed up for half hour or so before leaving when there were this couple doing a photo shoot so I glared at that normal page 3 style beauty but didn't get any 😍 out of it. The wind was no chill of the nice kind at this point
Then I walked my way to town to get the cables, I looked in the first poundland by the POWWOWTV and didn't buy from there due to the queues. So I went to the second poundland and that had the cables I needed and also I bought some aloe vera juice and chicken soup which was £0.50 each. £4 the cost came to in the end.
Then it was time to head home but I Looked in Game and HMV one last time before walking to the bike and ......IT was gone. Well fuck me that was a not good moment, I was calm about it but still it's not ideal. So I walked up to the police station opposite Starbucks.
I got there and waited and after 5 minutes, a lady appeared, she asked how can I help and I reported the bike, some guys came in and she thought they were with me and got asked in then she said for me to pop in and I did and then we went through the form, it's mostly been described except the serial number i never got was asked which means I had to call the place I got it from, which they were closed anyway. But I eventually got the reference number and left. I went and checked the bike park out before giving Dartmoor Cycles a call which was unavailable. "You cannot leave a message" as i called them via FreedomPop which worked fine
Then I pelted it to get the bus and just as I was getting to Mutley, I saw it, the number 1 and ran like a bolt and luckily there was busy traffic and red lights which delayed him and got me on the bus. Paying £4.80 for a single and then typing this up, it made things seem better but I know that bike has been nothing but problems from punctures on the way to an exam, lights breaking to chains dying so maybe this was the sign that it was not the bike for me.
The traffic was busy, but by 17:30, the traffic was back to normal and I was on the way home. I got off by lidl and then decided to vlog it a day and then check if Dartmoor Cycles was open but knowing the time, i was too late. Or so i Thought, it turns out, they were open until 6:30 and I asked but they had to delete old records which means they don't have the Serial Number. So it might be the end of it. I told my parents and they were feeling the same as me,"its gone now and nothing can be done about it, you won't get it back".
Well that's that then, another day and this year has a bad taste to January, but let's see what happens and hope for luck

A warm 1940s Sunday at Harrowbeer
With the middle of August upon us, its the Annual 1940s weekend at RAF harrowbeer, Working the 2nd year in a row and things were going smoothly on the Saturday, but today was my turn to join in and it was warm and pretty good. Lets start
I woke up and got out of bed about the 9ish mark and got prepared, especially since i bought a bike case from lidl a few weeks back which was £4 and actually fitted my phone and the nokia as well. But after getting that on, i left about 9:30 to get to Yelverton.
It was good to see that actually the GPS was working amazingly well, as you see from the smooth lines, it was calibrated so it was good to see where the signal lies, the gap was the tunnel i slowed down to let the GPS get a fix and then when getting just past the steep hill near Yelverton, the chain locked :@. But i made it by 10:15 and it was getting a bit busy, the food stall was piling but the names of the burgers were really WWII based. and it was slow to start, explored and saw various pin badges, charity stalls and a space set for RC Flying as well as the Birmingham Uni showing off 3d imagry made solely with drone footage, also Alienware and dell laptops.
Also we were selling raffle tickets for £1 or 5 tickets for £4 and that was really popular, £200 of airfix kit (which i had to order a week or more before on the phone was a nightmare). That and also i spoke to a friend of my nans and my mum introduced (reintroduced) to him then he embarrassed me infront of my boss which was funny. But after i saw my parents, i was covering the place. Also a can of tango for £1 was ok.
Throughout the day there was something nearby with 1940s entertainment with a really loud but happy and vibrant, with a slightly famous singer couple who showed off the current dance moves but some frank Sinatra style to other classic songs and even singing like Marilyn Monroe was cute and made me think of kaylee. But that eventually finished at 4:30. I got hungry so i bought a coffee and walnut slice for £1.50. That was tasty then it caused nice conversation about #GBBO. Exploring was still nice :)
But by 4pm, it was time for contests to end and we announced our raffle (there was a joke about the announcer cheating tickets to win a prize but it was just a joke and light banter things). Packing up too about 45 minutes, loading into cars, folding tables, stacking chairs and by 5:05 i was ready to leave, the clouds were greying and there was a final spitfire test as well as RC model spitfire going off. But after letting my phone reboot and my 80 seconds of getting the GPS to fix with no EPO data. I left and the rush home was smooth and going over 10kmh at one point was wow.
I got home about 5:45 and it was relaxing to eat a nice roast spicy chicken when watching Ted 2. And that was another day done.
I'll have some more blog posts up soon, since its been a year since i finally checked my health for romance and also since the RAF event last year. But then we have Fireworks to repeat and i might be doing both nights (at least Wednesday night is one of them).
Until Then
