Good evening. Poor title I know...
Had a nice weekend off. Nice weather too. Didn't do much though. Obviously. Back at work this morning, the new coaches are getting easier to handle, will take a few weeks to get a true feel of them. Late shift tomorrow. I like lates better than earlies.
Decided to start a model railway again, I was very young last time I did it so now I can do a proper job. With a proper layout and buildings (as a kid books made stations and ramps and things. Gets me off the computer too, I spend far too much time online. Besides, the internet isn't as active as it was last year. Not even a patch. Everyone must be busy or elsewhere I suppose. Not much chatting and blogging going on, people tend to have other things to do instead, so guess I need something. Plus it'll be fun to have a go at modelling, making scale buildings, stuff like that. I need something to do, to keep me occupied. And also relive some stress, I thing it'll be ideal. Energy going into the creation. Peace and relaxation from it's operation. The longer it can keep me sane, the better. I think.
Finally watched Mona Lisa Smile last night. Got the DVD ages ago at a service station, well it's got a great cast. I was very impressed with the film. Although I wasn't sure that the whole big tub of Baileys flavour Haagen Dazs was a good idea, but hey, nobody to share with what else can I do?
St Georges Day today. Another waste of time. What's the point of being English if we can't celebrate it? Oh yeah our identity has gone. Trying to work out whether we're now part of America or the Eastern Bloc. Poland is empty now, I should move there. At least there I can afford to live. (This ruined country really gets to me).
Sorry this post isn't really structured, I'm tired and bored and can't really be bothered with it tonight! In a bit of a sensitive mood I guess. Ranted a bit, I'll probably come back and edit it sometime. Didn't really feel like blogging but some of us have to do it. Before the whole blogging community falls down into doing once-a-month entries at best! I try and do it daily, don't like leaving a gap of more than 2 days if possible. Hope everyone is well. Especially those that are about and not too busy! (Wants to turn back the clocks...).

I'm bad at keeping my blogging up as well Nik. It's not quite the same now that 20six has undergone the revamp - the whole community element has gone hasn't it? Anyway, I'm glad you had a good weekend and I'm off to see if there's anything even remotely interesting happened this week that I can blog about!!

At least you're back on 20six hope you stay lol.
20six launched my blogging life and most bloggers I visit are or were here. It's the community that makes it, i think everyone should come back and give it a chance.
Peter is working hard at looking after this place I think, must be a job and half considering what little there is to work with.
There are some blogs that have gone months without an update, and other's who've moved on but can't keep track of them (so might as well have stopped basically). Shame really.
Hope you're good.

but it's a good read. I saw your new buses... very nice. I notice you have been playing the Killers,is it the new one, Sams Town? I love it. My boy got me it for Mothers day. I love Read my Mind.
The model railway sounds good. My dad used to have one that he did with my brother. Everything was perfect and they weren't toys!! .
.
If you fancy a film try Lady In The Water. It's really good and wasn't what I expected at all. I found it easy to watch and follow and interesting, which is a nice change.

I should really update my blog more often than I do. But when I remember/have time/can be bothered/etc. I can never think of anything to write. So I give up anyway. Not to self: try to blog at least semi-interesting things more often. We're not allowed to fly the flag anymore, are we... in case we "offend" someone else. Well, if it's so "offensive" to see the country your living in's identiy (if only through a flag..), why come to the country in the first place?? lol :P

Feathers, yep Sam's Town! I love Read My Mind too, very catchy and tuneful. Seen the live version of that song on TV on Comic Relief, brilliant.
Not heard of that film but no doubt I can find it on sky guide somewhere.
Emma, the best way (such as this and many of my other unstructured posts) is to just open the 'new entry' page and see what comes out! Quite fun that way too. More posts work wonders for the hit counter too which is always a bonus. My train kit arrived today, should get boards tomorrow to mount it on, then I can start measuring the scale to make the 'scene'.
One thing that really annoys me, even though I'm not religious, is that Christians can't even show their faith anymore although this is strictly speaking a Chrisitan country! *Recalls Harry+Paul the muslim sketch this week..."Isn't she probably pretty?"* excellent lol.
If I had my own house there'd be a flag flying on it. Like the Americans all do (but their flag not ours obviously :p)!
Hope you're both well.

The Louis Vuitton are taken as a fashion statement by the people and everyone adores and loves the products made by the company. They are a little expensive too and that is why their replicas too have got much acceptance and importance. The Louis Vuitton Bags are so easy to carry that every woman would want to have it.
