Blog is Back

After the summer (defined by the calendar not the weather) I think its time to blog again.

I have missed narrating my way through 40-dom.
Also , having spent quite a bit of time continuing to build the family tree it struck me that I would love to get an insight in to the lives behind the old photos, birth certificates and the decade-wide scant info of the census returns. Fr example, knowing how my great great grandad felt at opening a fishmongers or why my great granddad went into running cinemas would be just great.
Sadly I don't have journals or letters from them to enrich the facts and figures, which are pretty dry.

So maybe future generations would like to know that I'm sat on the 09.52 from wakefield to London kings cross and I am going to meet a client to talk about rebuilding their web site to increase sales of the (very good actually) range of kitchens and bathrooms.
And that I have a slight headache but am also hungry as the trolley attendant took my order for a ham and cheese toastie, then forgot to bring it.
And that (to name check the family for future readers) - we are going to Chester zoo on Saturday as Joe remembered enjoying it as a toddler and Ronan was aggrieved as we had never taken him. I think that is true though my memory is blurred over 19 years of outings with ever changing age combinations of children.
I do like zoos, now they preserve species you can feel good whilst laughing at a chimp fiddlling with itself hanging upside down from a tyre.
Marvelous.
