September Update

Hello hello hello. I can't believe that I've not properly updated this in....well, a few months :) Where to start...

 

Probably the best place would be back in July. First week of July I was going to see Alex Cornish in Glasgow. And as if anything ever goes without complication! See, that morning, my brother got delayed on the train due to flooding at Dalmarnock station. And knowing what the weather was supposed to be like, it was an automatic panic to work out a 'what if' plan (it's at time's like that I wish that I had the confidence to drive into Glasgow...would solve soooo many things!) Anyway, successfully managed to get in and out without any issues. You can read the review of the evening here. Oh and I do highly recommend seeing him & co live and buying his albums (I'm sending him the bill for me saying that. He just doesn't know it yet...).

 

Mum and I took up a stall at the a local church car boot/fun day selling our jewellery. We knew ourselves that we probably wouldn't make much due to the prices of some items (well, you tend only to take a few pounds to a car boot....unless you're on Bargain Hunt or Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is) but still managed to successfully sell a nice amount which has since been reinvested back into the jewellery. We’ve now got a little site running for out self-funding hobby @ www.handmadebymandv.co.uk

Somehow my brother and I managed to survive a week alone whilst our parents were on holiday. It was really strange though because the dog was in kennels (apparently she needs time away for the family too)

And talking of parents, I made a huge mistake for their anniversary. I saw a To Me To You figurine that I really liked, and, with an agreement with my brother, I bought. The day before the anniversary, I discovered that the figure I had picked up was already in the cabinet! Turns out I had bought the same figurine LAST year for the same occasion…Guess I know why I liked it! I’d like to add that both times that I’ve bought it, it was the last one in the shop so I’m obviously meant to have it

 

Not having too much luck on the whole full time job front. It's still seems to be that everywhere is still looking for experience...and once again I say, how do you get experience if you can't get a job? Did try my hand on wining my abilities...well, if you don't try... Also putting the whole photography thing on hold at the moment. If I want to do the course, then I need to pay my own fees, add to that the expense of the equipment and probably books on top of that...Did considering doing a 3 month course which basically acts as an introduction to the course, but still not sure about that. I think my confidence has taken another dent.

 

AND...to add to that, as you might have seen in my last post about my PS3 dying, I'm thinking that if I hadn't got mine repaired, then the price drop wouldn't have been announced...Sod's frickin' law!!

 

So, that's it from me this month. Guess the past couple of months have actually been very quiet in comparison to some other ones.
 

Until next time
