2019: First week

So over the last week I did quite a bit! And in keeping with The Plan, I’m going to blog about it. I got out an about with Kibby and Jayney, out on them there hills in the first of what I’m wanting to be a monthly “Summit Sunday.” The overall aim of which is to have done all the Wainwrights under my hopefully smaller waistline by the time I’m 40. All the ones I’ve done previously are wiped clean and no longer count toward this goal. So that’s 214 peaks to do in (12×8)+4 = 100 months. Yep. Totally doable screwed already.
For the first one we decided to start out easy be ticking off Holme Fell and Black Fell (nr Tarn Hows) in one sitting. They’re not big (the highest is a little over 300m) and all in all we planned for about 4 hours walking.

2019: The Plan

Yeah yeah, I know: we’ve been here before.

I’ve said it before: I’m self aware, if nothing else.

So 2018 has been and is almost gone. Over the course of the past 365 days I’ve come to think of it as…a period of my life that I’ve been through. As usual I’ve not done an awful lot of what I wanted, I’ve gotten fatter, have become less active, have procrastinated more, and have spent a lot of money on things I should have not.

Easter 2016: The Execution

Well, as expected things did not all go to plan. Naturally. However dear readers, I planned for that. I am firmly of the belief that if you know you’ll only ever get 50% done, you should plan twice as many things!

So:

Easter 2016: The Plan

Oh no. Sam’s making a plan again. This is bound to be stuck to.

Well, yes I am. I have 2 and a half days to do with what I want, and I aim to use them.

2015 The Plan

It feels somewhat like I’ve been here before

Ok, lets take a look at what I’ve achieved in the last year. Well, 9 months but whatever.

This year I aim to:

• Actually get a hold on the amount of 40k I have and feckin paint a load up
• Get back into the piano properly, and perchance play in public again
• MAN CAVE
• Electronics
• Gardening (Because I’m apparenly middle aged)
• Chill out a fecking bit
• Get on at work, or move on
• Hike
• Camp

Unsurprisingly, this was not all done.

1. Actually get a hold on the amount of 40k I have and feckin paint a load up. This was dependant on the mancave being sorted, and that’s ongoing
2. Get back into the piano properly, and perchance play in public again. I am playing more regularly, but what with my broken knuckles of the other year, it’s a hard slog
3. MAN CAVE. Is up, and currently undergoing a fuckton of tidying
4. Electronics. Yeah, dropped the ball on this one
5. Gardening. Oh, I seem to have butterfingers…
6. Chill out a fecking bit. There’s a theme developing here
7. Get on at work, or move on. HAHAHAhaha…
8. Hike. Nope
9. Camp.

…So I shall carry on with last year’s plan.

PEACE

The Plan

You know I mean business when I write a blog about it…

This year I aim to:

• Actually get a hold on the ammount of 40k I have and feckin paint a load up
• Get back into the piano properly, and perchance play in public again
• MAN CAVE
• Electronics
• Gardening (Because I’m apparenly middle aged)
• Chill out a fecking bit
• Get on at work, or move on
• Hike
• Camp

And yes, I’m aware its the middle of April already…but I’ve been playing piano again, and I’ve certainly bought some warhammer since the year began…

So Then

Here we are again. Trying to resurrect the blog. Its MOVED too!
No longer a part of windows live spaces (it died) but here on the mighty WordPress for you, the peoples of my Internets.
I will be trying my hand at blogging whatever I’m up to, unless it would be incriminating, duh…

I will be blogging electronics, warhammer, the house*, garden*, Rebecca*, piano, cat*, work, camping, walking, what I can about Scouts and whatever comes to me at the time.

*These things are new.

The entire story of My Dirty Weekend Away

Hello folks! What did you all get up to on the Easter weekend?

Four day weekends are great, especially when you get paid for two of them. *Smugness* So, with my time off, Cherise and myself went up to the lakes for a ‘walking’ holiday. Lukilly most people saw through this paltry excuse for what it really was…A Dirty Weekend Away! (Henceforth known as the DWA)

Now before you all get excited, youre not going to get told [all] of the details! But please keep reading. Seriously, because I have your dog/cat/childhood teddy here, and if you dont, Fido/Fudge/Freddo here gets it.

So on Friday morning, we set off, at about 10:30 ish, which is half an hour later than I wanted, but it was all good. Not too much traffic getting up there, and I did take motorway (Oh YES I did, Sheila). We got to Coniston and onto our campsite and– Nuts its packed. With people who think that caravanning is camping.

LEE TYPES NOW

howdee normal weirdos! Sam loves Bum S£x!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! without lub£!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Sam) Dude, I don’t think that you can put that on here…

Sorry bout that folks, Lee’s a co-worker that seems to have a facination with me and homoeroticism.

Help me.

Anyway, there were also a lot of people who’s motor functions dont work unless they’re blaring out crap music at 100Db+ there too. And Hoathwaite farm used to be so nice and Quiet. That nite I asked (In as many words) ‘Oh, pardon me for intruding upon your little party, but would you mind awfully if you turned it down?’ Well perhaps it wasnt as polite as that, but it was past Midnight. Day two on the DWA C and I went the LONG way into Coniston. actual distance from campsite into Coniston 3 Km, My way about 15!

No, we didnt get lost, we actually went on a hike. On purpose. Really!

Well I kniow youre not really interested, because I told you I had your dog/cat/cuddly toy, so Ill wrap up by saying I got my own back on the towny campers by scaring them up something rotten and the DWA was a DWA 😉

Remember never get in the way of me and sleep or food. You WILL regret it…

Now before Lee comes at me with something that looks painful Im off.

Ta-rar!

Edit: I know this isnt the full story, but reply to the post and I might be pursuaded to tell all at a later date.

ARGH! LEE!

My car is definately the Millenium Falcon!

Ok, so you wont believe this at all, but I have photographic evidence. But my Rover Metro 100 has done offroading and severe inclines. Praise the car. Praise it… Photos coming soon!
