Keep your chin up. Every cloud has a silver lining. It could be worse. Don't worry be happy. If at first you don't succeed try, try again.

Don't believe them its all propaganda….

We went across to Wigtown today, which is in the South West coast of Scotland. Its one of several booktowns in the UK and although the children got lots of books they were not impressed with the day out we chose as the following photo will show.

I have also finally bought the Da Vinci Code today, as i must be one of the only people not to have read it, i suppose i just want to see what all the fuss is about.

It's been 20 days since the wife gave up smoking and she is doing really well. I on the other hand can't.

I hate school holidays, i'm sure i've said that before. I think it's because it breaks my normal routine and it's very unsettling, also whenever they occur we always seem to be stuck in the house because of lack of money.

…the algae that is however there has been some reduction since i added the plants and i intend to add more. I have also added a pair of firemouth cichlids which put the fish count back to the same level it was before the algae bloom in the hope that that helps.

I also had not realised how big Seve the Severum had got until i added the firemouth, i need to get some updated photo and post them, however thats a job for the wife, if your reading this get the camera out.

Went to our first car boot sale of the year today. I love them, it's an adventure on every occasion. Prize find today was a bread maker which we purchased for £4.50 after a bit of haggling which i also love, maybe i should live in Turkey. Anyway only time will tell if it makes better bread than the wife currently makes.

…or lack of, i'm not sure which has caused a great deal of strife the last two days. It's not that i am emotionless or don't want to understand, it's just this is something that is about 20x worse than PMT. I'm sure all of this is normal and run of the mill but nobody really tells you what it is going to be like and if they do they certainly don't tell husbands or partners how to deal with it.

Algae Update May 25, 2006

Well i seem to be making some headway with reducing the algae although i did have to give up on the 'Siesta method' as i was unable to be consistent. I decided to give growing plants another go (i have never had any luck with aquatic plants) and it seems to be working although it has only been a week, but fingers crossed it is the solution.
