Well it finally happened. Young CN turned up at Casita wearing a bra. It was bound it happen and she is very proud of it. Although we must stop her trying to show everyone.
In other news, house still not sold but then that seems to be the norm. New boss is not here, which seems the norm. Wiwad pissing everyone off, which is the norm. Not much new to be honest. Panning a trip over new year if can work out time and finances.

I have a dream
Well actually it is the same dream which I keep having every now and then. Do you ever have that? This is mine.
I am back at RAF Odiham in the control tower. Only the date is now and I am the person I am now. My life is pretty much as it is now. The only difference is I am back there. The thing is they keep expecting me to know everything I knew when I was in the RAF and all the procedures at Odiham. They don’t seem to understand that I have been out for a number of years now and that although something’s never change, and for that matter some things you learn you never forget, other things will be different. During the dreams different people keep popping up from the past. Not sure why I keep dreaming this. Might have to do with it actually on occasion being really exciting. I have actually been in involved in several news items. Two actually very funny especially when you have a live news broadcast and the presenter is speculating about what actions might be taken and you actually know what is going on.
I think last nights was about this, as I was working with the Chinooks at Odiham. I have actually seen this for real involving a broken Wessex. It’s bit like the AA. Why not fix there I hear you cry? Well it is simple manpower. If they get there and they can’t fix it, you then have to send out a guard force to protect the area. So it is easier to whip the blades off, stuff them in the Chinook and the USL the dam thing home. Bish bosh bash.
Anyhoo time to go.

DM inspired post –
Well sort of if you read his blog this morning you will notice his post about guns and got me thinking about a school friend of mine. Chris Muller. Now Chris was one of these mofo’s that could make anything. At 15 he had built his own Jeep out of an old WWII Willys Jeep. Complete with massive tyres and 7ltr V8. I should also point out this dude was Gun mad and a hunter. I also believe, and this is true, that he started the free running crazy. You see he used be able to run up walls and at lunch would line 4 or 5 people up against a wall and then run over the top of them using the wall and that was 1987……anyway
Anyway there we were 15 year old and in the technical stream at school. We enter our fitting and turning (no not Dornorn dancing, metal work) placement. The standard assignment is handed out. Make something nice out of metal. Everyone went for the standard make a dice on a stand thingy, but not Chris. No this guy made fully working miniature cannon. This thing actually fired ball bearings so hard that when they hit the concrete wall they would flatten.
On another occasion, on my first visit back to South Africa, we (School friends although we were older now about 20) went to a club. The doorman stops me and asks me if I have any firearms. To which laughed and said no. Anyway Chris, who we had been with all day, Pulls out a desert eagle from under his jacket but wait he then produced 2 smaller guns from his ankles.
That is one person not to piss off.

15 - Love
Andy Murray made it perfectly clear when England football team were playing a vital qualifyer for the European championships against Croatia that he was Scottish and no way would he support England, or was it during the World up
soooooo
Come on Nadal. !!
See I am happy to get behind British when they are prepared to get behind each other. Had Scotland, Wales, Rep or Ireland or even Ireland got through to the Euro's I would have backed them. However I refuse to get behind this miserable half talented hack (who now that I have said that will win).
