SaT 14 FEELS LIKE FRID 13TH
WHAT A DAY Lukes team only drew 4 4 although he had the best game I have seen him play all season. On the way home the electician rang to say he had problems finding the wires he had put in for our lights in the kitchen cieling as the plasterer had plastered over them so we end up with 8 extra holes in the cieling than we wanted cause it was a lack of communication that will cost me 150 pounds to put it right these so called profesional tradesman piss me off. Then united go and lose to liverpool 4 1 can u f believe it i just wanted to scream at everyone to go away and leave me in peace.
Anyway being a rational human being nobody died we will get lights in our cieling and re plaster and paint it again and it will look like new. went out for pizza very nice and had a few glasses of wine to take the edge off, think i need to look for another job now money a bit tight and got a chance to get anoher nvq position not what i want to do but needs must.
we will have a tremendous kitchen in the end.

Planting Vegetables Outside for the first time
Today amongst the wind and the rain and the kitchen fitters I actually planted my forst seeds outside in my new veg plot, I have been palnning it since last autumn dug it over manureded it raised beds were made and its all fenced off so the pesky rabbits cant get in. So being a novice gardener what do intend to grow, for starters it will be stuff we like and will eat, so i have gone for traditional veg potatoes carrots, swede with celairiac as about extravagant as it gets at the moment. \I have been growing veg in my green house so far as small plants so it will be interesting to see how they compare. i also planted some sunflowers and yellow poppys today, so the garden is coming on nicely.
the kitchen fitters came today and started fitting the units they got on really well and its starting to take shape, we should be all done in a couple of weeks or so. it was a bit of a rush though getting it all painted after the plasterer had been, but we managed in between watching Luke play football losing 5 2 to appleby \frod they can kiss goodbye that title, they made up for it on sunday with a 10 0 win in the sunday league so they are still in that as well as 3 cups two of which are finals.
\joe was at a party on sat in the next village along one of his freinds Amy who he goes to school with he had a good time. Just put the seat up on my oldracer so we can go out together when I get my new bike and he gets some shoes. Kate away tonight in \rygate saw her on \Msn so that was good tried to show her the progress of the kitchen so far but quite difficult as it was dark.
She was tired as she was up at 5 this morning hopefully she will have a couple of days off end of this week.
United got a great draw against everton in the FA cup eassier than chelsea or the arse but still tough, think they will go out of the euro though on wed against inter, just got a feeling.

Plasterers, electricians and unlucky plumbing
The kitchen is coming along nicely, ripped it out last tuesday thought it would take 2 days but only took one, the electrician came in and did first fix on thursday and friday and finished off on monday then in came the plasterer yesterday and today. In the middle of all that the valves on the boilerstarted leaking so had to call the plumber again luckily he was only in the village so he come and sorted us out. We are currently living without a kitchen and doing ok we cooked a load of meals and pasta and rice and froze them so that we had food to microwave and we have put some of our old units in the games room asa makeshift kitchen, so far so good apart from the plasterer not pulling throught the light cables for the electrician to do the fittings.
the weather is getting warmer if not dryer i have sowed lots of veg seeds cauli sprouts broccoli, cabbage tomatoes, chilli, celeriac, swede, onions, sweetcorn and have sown lots of perenials all starting to sprout in the green hoiuse and the spring bulbs are starting to come up .
Last weekend we went home it was my mums 70th birthday and went out for a meal with all th clan it was an ok evening, had to be up eqarly for the next day Luke was playing football in the county cup semi final. They won on penalties after going behind twice and scoring an equaliser in the last minute. so this year they are in the final of the county cup the final of the caparo cup and second so far in the scunthorpe league and 4th in the gradley league with afew games in hand.
Kate been over in Flint this week back tonight thankfully.
Joe packed in athletics at school didnt want to do it anymore, fair enough.
ordered a new road cycle its a cinelli italian make red nicely specced and quite light for the price
