This is something I've been playing with and just wanted to get some feedback from you folks: what do you think of this?

So much for Usky's plan to have a nice day out today... somehow I just knew things were destined to turn sour...

Well first things first I had an appointment with the dentist... just a check-up, but I'd managed to miss the last several so this was like the last chance saloon... either I turned up this morning or I'd be struck off the list!

The dentist lady had a bit of a moan because it'd been so long since I was last there (more than two years ago) and went on and on about how teeth deteriorate with age and given that I am now in that age bracket where teeth are really vulnerable... yawns... nods... opens gob...

She poked... she prodded... she shhhhed with a cold air blower... scraped and prodded some more... then said in a very huffy voice there was nothing wrong... well I could've told her that!

I felt a bit sorry for her really because I'm sure she wanted to stick needles in me and get her drill out.

Anyway by the time I got out of the dentist the skies over the Bristol Channel were looking pretty grey and miserable so I decided a trip to the coast was probably not a good idea.

I got in my car and headed inland... it would be a day for churches and cemeteries and anything else that caught my eye...

Driving up into the hills, the little yellow picture of a car engine lit up on my dashboard... bugger! Okay so I pulled over and opened the bonnet... have you noticed how modern car engines don't really look like car engines anymore...

Sod it... I drove home... 'phoned the dealership... bring it in next week... and it had started to rain...

So no walk by the coast... no churches... no cemeteries...

In true Blue Peter style... here's a couple of images I prepared earlier.

I spent two hours with my therapist yesterday having a really good mental workout... these sessions always leave me feeling shattered... but also leave me in a reflective state of mind... so last night I just gave in to fatigue and has a really good sleep and this morning I'm kind of mooning about in a thoughtful sort of mood...

I haven't looked out the window yet, but I can't hear any wind or rain today so I'm hoping to get out for a nice quiet walk somewhere to continue my reflection. Perhaps I'll find a country church with a quiet churchyard and just watch the world go by...
