Words

As the song goes "It's only words and words are all I have........"
Today I had a meeting with the Head of Services of a fairly large region. I was to be accompanied by two other folks but I happened to arrive about 20 mins ahead of them and as the Heady of Social Services was free we blethered about my project and lo and behold without her even seeing any written stuff she was sold on the idea and willing not just to support it but to buy into it. When she finally did see the written submission she asked if she could add the Council's side of things and I said "feel free, add away!" By the time my two comapnions had arrived the rest of the meeting was easy. Now all we still have to do is get the damn application past the big major funders!

I left feeling on a high which was good as first thing in the morning I had driven to the cemetary where my parents are buried and took a wee Christmas token to them and left it by the grave stone, these occassions never get any easier!

Managed to buy another Christmas present, just two more to go for the family and a few bits and bobs for old cronies etc and I will be sorted.

Drove back to Argyll this evening and while the Rest and Be Thankfull is open , some bright spark has decreed that the entire bloody mountain side be light up by powerful arc lights and guess what the flaming traffic lights are back! I for one don't want to be stopped on the damn mountain which could at any moment during rain & hail slip down on top of me and I sure as Hell dont' want to see the flaming hillside lit up so I can actually now witness the Cobbler rumbling towards me ready to engulf me and my wee motor!
If it had been dry however, I may have been tempted to park at the top carpark, set up my tripod and photograph this eery sceane, some other time perhaps.

Have a good blip evening all
