well the course went really well on friday and I now have orders for a number of items, including a couple of belts and guitar strap - marvellous. The nature of the course - leather working - and what did i make - a beautiful leather corset (a rather bad picture of said corset). It was great fun and i thoroughly enjoyed myself. So now all I have to do is get my sorry arse down to the leather suppliers and the tool suppliers.

Irish country music is becoming my favourite music - this is a sad fact - i find myself listening to radio stations that specialise in the genre - I hope the gentleman concerned understands the sacrifice that I am making - he has now told me how much he likes me :) - cant wait to see him again - although bearing in mind he only works at weekends it does seem to be inordinately difficult to make arrangements - however if all else fails i will definitely be seeing him in northampton on 27th. Admittedly he is recording the other days of the week so I shouldn't be too harsh I guess.

Today the boy is taking his CBT and tomorrow he has his first driving lesson and in the afternoon we are off to buy a scooter - watch out romford and east london is all i can say. His own transport is now a necessity as his construction course in september is in rainham - and now we are investigating architect degrees because he can go on to do that after his btec - he seems quite excited about the course and his future prospects.

Wel i guess i had better get on - housework to do and things to make - and txts to send lol
