More driving adventures. Went to Manchester Airport to pick up a friends mum and sister, who were flying in from Frankfurt. Started snowing as we set off. Only saw three gritters on the entire trip and two if those were in the other lanes !! The punchline is that when we got to the airport we found out that the plane had been diverted to...

Not the worse thing that could've happened but bloody irritating all the same. My friend who I was giving a lift, to her home in Rotherham, was not at all impressed.
Just marking time at the moment. Really want the next week to be over and done with as soon as possible. Not really on top of my game at work 'cause of stuff I can't talk about. On the debit side though I got to go on a hack yesterday morning and had several really good gallops. The horses were really up for it. Great...

Just watched Sam Raimi's Drag Me To Hell. Loved it. **WHOPP, WHOOP !!, SPOILER ALERT** I honestly thought our heroine had got away with it but really, given that this is a Raimi film, I should've known better. Thought the trailer for Daybreakers was good too.

Had a great time on Sunday. A good mix of old and new songs. Even better, 'cause I gave three people a lift over to the venue they paid for my ticket.
By accident I saw the episode of CSI:NY that featured the Suicide Girls. Not bad. It was amusing to see the Danny character getting flirted with by Nixon Suicide.

I've seen that episode a few times.
Back home after 10 days house and cat sitting for the folks. Plus points were freezer & drinks cabinet privileges. Minus points were my cat allergy and no pc access, so no Facebook, SG, or the other forums I go/post on. It's great to be back.
Just joined Facebook. This'll be a laugh.

Just so long as people don't start sending you 'rubber ducks' (seriously). You can apparently own a farm on there now too.
It all kinda makes me feel old, because i don't undestand the applications etc. I only wanted to chat to people...
Have fun there!

Cheers. Slowly getting to grips with the whole thing. Luckily most of my workmates are on it so I can rugby tackle them for help & info.
I think I finally got it today. After almost 4 years of early Sat/Sun mornings, weather where the rain, or snow, is coming in horizontally, several falls & 1 x broken rib I finally 'got' canter, ie how to get your horse to go from trot to canter. All lesson, it just clicked. Stoked, or what. I'm really pleased.
