Yes at last, I have completed my fence and all the brackets which will act as the two bar gates. Tucker has been put into the new starvation section and Monty is (for now anyway) allowed to have the run of the other two fields. The weather was good for the job as well... Now this evening I am back here in front of my computer, indulging in my favourite pastime of surfing and researching and wondering about time, space, what it's all about and what's out there?

Day 1. Relief and Realisation
@ 06/03/2007 – 08:57:49 pm
The penny finally dropped this evening while accidentally hitting upon a blog site with my wife Carol on her laptop. Blogs? There's that word again. Although, after much discussion on the subject, combined with a little research of my own, to all intents and purposes, the true meaning of the word has suddenly and unexpectedly lazered itself onto my grey matter with a realisation of such gargantuan proportions, that I nearly fell off my chair with the excitement of it all...
Well give me some space please, I am 51 years old at last, and maybe, just maybe, not quite as quick about such things as I used to be...
...My Dad phones me today to give me the good news. The results of his MRI scan which he had a couple of weeks ago is completely clear. The doctor told him, don't know why you are here Mr Morgan, there is nothing wrong with you... Great Dad we knew it would be cuz they only scanned your neck anyway for so called crumbling bones didn't they?... No, he now chooses inform me, they told me that they would be looking for signs of Cancer.
... Oh even greater Dad, thanks for informing me now and not earlier. Didn't want to cause anyone unnecessary worry he says. Why do parents do that?... Anyway, the upshot is, Dad, 81 this year bless him, is as far as anyone can see, as fit as the proverbial flea, relief all round on that score......So after the earlier relief came the realisation, which grabbed my imagination which then turned to inspiration which prompted the action. I've joined up, set up and am raring to go with my contribution the the world of BLOG... I can't promise that it will be anything particularly riveting or cliff hanging, but it will be honest and as accurate as I can portray...

...So for what it's worth, here goes nothing. Me and mine on a daily basis, it's ups and it's downs, the good days and the bad, my interests my dislikes, the bearing of my very soul, here in this small, sleepy, Hampshire hamlet... I'm Pete, this is... My Trials and My Life......
