Grandson Number 3.

Welcome to the world Ruben Hemingway Bullock. Born 29th July 2024, he's doing well and Mum and Dad are happy for their new arrival. Ruben is my fourth Grand Child and the son of my youngest, they grow up fast these kids do. They're leaving home and setting up by themselves in no time.  Lots of happiness ahead, you really do forget about the sleepless nights, 1:00a.m feed me calls and walks with the pushchair in the night to get them off to sleep. It's what it's all about. So I wonder what plans there are for Ruben, the world he's come into is changing, not always for the better in my opinion, but we have to embrace change and make them positive making the best of what we have. AI around the corner, I'm looking forward to having a robot around the house. Ruben will know no different, technology will be front and centre.  He's lucky to have some clever people around him to help him along the way. His uncles, aunts, grand parents and of course his parents. What...

A trip for work.

I thought I'd make an entry for my Blog today, doing it in multiple bits. Early start, up at five making my way over to the ferry. Travelling up to Reading today to see Richard for work. Bought myself a new multi save ticket which means that I don't have to pay the extortionate levels of price the ferries can charge. That's highly recommended if you live on the Island. Arrived in Portsmouth and the sun was blazing. For a travel up to Reading let's see what the traffic is like. I imagine it's pretty busy, yes it was pretty busy. On the way back down it wasn't too bad, lots of folks around for the D Day commemoration at South Sea, lots of boats out here too. Had a good stop off after work seeing my Grand Babies, Daughter in Law, and Son number 1 in Thatcham. Hannah made the tea and I got to cuddle. Top ending to a pretty good day. On the boat at the moment writing this. Waiting to set off for the Island. It's a happy boat. They always are on the way to ...

Night 1 Quarr retreat...

I lay in the silence, fireworks in the distance I can hear, must be celebrating the holidays. How do I feel? A little low, not sure why. I think I'm missing out on life being hear in the monastery. Fear of the unknown I suppose. Breakfast tomorrow at 7:30, no talking, what should I do, where should I go. I really don't know what to say. Got room yuk, that's that feeling that once you're in bed you don't wanna move. It smells slightly of hair grease and sweat. The sheets are clean though. The room is clean and quite big with it. Very basic, no internet! Grr. Don't know about this retreat thing, just wanna go out or go home. Not feeling it, been asked to wear trousers at the next service. Don't know why these dress codes still exist. The service was sung in Latin, I could follow using the book in English. There was all sorts of bowing, sitting, standing and all that. I know when the Gospel is proclaimed we stand, that's before Jesus' words. We stand be...
