Hello and Welcome!

So, this is it. My first 'blog'. As far as I can make out, it's an online diary for anyone to read. So will there be anything nefarious and racey on here?

Unlikely. Possible. No, I'll stick with unlikely.

There WILL however, be my thoughts, musings and nonsense on pretty much anything, so give it a chance, and if you think I've anything interesting to say, please read on, but if you don't, may I recommend youtube.com, or google.com?

So here goes.... I'm still basking in Everton's first away win at Spurs for 21 years, but I'm slightly concerned as I've had no reply to any of several drunken (not so abusive) texts I sent to one of my best friends, Ian. He is, I should point out, a Spurs fan. So he'll either be sulking or will have had some form of family disaster at the weekend, rendering my text messages tactless and trite.
I hope he's sulking.

I like plants. They, seem not to like me. When we moved in to our current flat, I bought a fern (named Duncan) for £80. It turned out to be a suicidal fern, and I swear from day one it was TRYING to die. It was watered and fed regularly too. £80 is a lot to pay for a large white plastic pot and some peat.I have since replaced Duncan, with Sanjeev. A much more successful, but somewhat less ambitious cactus, which seems grateful for its mere existence in my office at home. It is growing though, which encourages me.

WORK today was uneventful. We missed the Bramley Challenger Man, which was a shame. We have a regular delivery of a local magazine publication, called the Bramley Challenger. The man delivering it, is shall we say, aesthetically pleasing, so it is usually a fight between myself and my colleague Nancy as to who can politely thank him for the magazines and smile the most treacly smile. He must think we're both barking mad. Anyway, between us we missed him, and he has only left us one copy of this edition. Unless of course, my patients have also taken a liking to him, and each taken a copy for themselves. The magazine is nothing to write home about I might add, but there is always a quiz which whiles aways a good 90 seconds or so.

Brian had fishcakes for dinner. This is unsurprising.

More tomorrow no doubt.
