Hello

How are we all out there.

The health I am feeling better, a lot more energy to use.

Technology devices:-

Sky is great fun, I worked out not to try and watch 3 channels on sky as it cancels a recording. This means I sky+ a few things like the Stargate and Startrek franchises, rugby, football, NCIS: Los Angeles and music. It definately means I don't watch Jeremy Kyle Show.

I am definately getting used to #Iphone 3gs. Some of the apps are good and some aint. Dragon does not understand me (or it just doesn't understand west of scotland). I got told about rugby scorer app and the timer doesn't work. I also had to unlink foursquare to facebook. My o2 signal has been rubbish at home lately. The wifi is fine at home but currently my phone has no signal. The other main issue is battery power. I did buy an extra battery off ebay so that makes it easier.Good apps include the sky related ones, nextbuses which is useful when you have a bus pass. The mapping is really good as well.

My music gallery (which I need as radio station apps need wifi (which isnt largely publically used down here) has Usher, Foo Fighters, Katy Perry, Emma's Imagination, Eminem, Jon Allen and a few others.

I also use the phone for podcasts ofcourse. I listen to Chris Moyles, Social Media Podcast, the Thumbcast (thanks for getting me to watch Metropolis) and I am listening to quiet News day while I type this.

I have finally decided to go to tomorrows New Media Breakfast in Glasgow tomorrow. I have thought about going to this for a while. I have listened to just about all the podcasts. I will finally see some of the guys I listen to all the time.

As Cumnock RFC webmaster I use twitter, email, facebook, audioboo and club website via pitchero to communicate our message. I do have this little blog as well for me. I used to use it more with pictures but Iphone doesn't use blogger. I do have lots of time as I don't work due to health issues.

So this morning I had 3 health people to see, that's done now, tomorrow is Glasgow and a train at 6.30am tomorrow morning. Saturday I have bbq at woodroad park in Cumnock and Sunday Cumnock RFC with lots of games.

blah

Well I thought it was a good name. Hope all the few readers I have are enjoying this. I don't get much feedback apart from twitter when I mention you specifically.

Work. Monday was a lot better, I went at my own pace, not trying to rush around. Just getting the stuff done with Myra. Had to be strict on tills a bit, including moving refunds to one till. Leonie I think is learning more about me. That includes times when I don't say much. I didn't do much when I got home that night. Just did some internet with twitter. I am trying to get not just 6 hours sleep. Lets see how we get on.

Tuesday woke up as usual 6am but no signal for my internet connection (argh). I got to work 8am, sent some faxes, photocopied had breakfast and opened with Ann and Claire later. Got a surprise order in (not too large). It was a nice day. Last night I had quick dinner and went to Cumnock Rugby Club to get a few updates. I am glad to say more members have paid this seasons membership already. It's only 10 training sessions until 1st game though. I just try to remind Under 18s to do Irb laws on rugby website as thats part of the process to play senior rugby.

Other news my friend Michelle (atleast I hope were still friends) is engaged. She announced it on 11 July. She has a very good man. She told me Sunday night as some of you may know I have a crabbit side. She said she told some people and I tried to make a joke out of it, but my bad mood stopped this happenning and I just bit back at her asking stupid things. I had just finished my 10-7 shift and was really tired. There is no excuses for what I did.

I know I have a tough side. I think I need to sometimes, just sometimes I can get me trouble with friends.

Ok, change the subject: TV AND RADIO

Chris Moyles has been very funny in the morning I am glad to say and glad he has a new contract for 12 more months. I wish he would do Strictly Come Dancing. Chris also basically doesn't like the Sun because they print lies about him. End of that subject.

Holly Willoughby is joining Philip Schofield on ITV This Morning from September. Very good decision.

ALL OTHER THINGS INTERNET
Snedwan, I just listened to your latest podcast.

That woman, its good you are closing the subject
Paris, very unfair you getting a good French team. I hope you complete your plan. Glad the walking helped you for Great North Run.
The last point was also very good.

Barry Snedden gave me a mention of Kigndom FM last week on air. I didn't know he was going to do that. Cheers Barry.

I also got another of my tweets read on Quest Means Business on CNNI about working Sundays. It probably helped I tweet almost immediately after he put the question out.

Also I won a competition on twitter along witha few other from The Green Welly on Friday. They announced the winners today.

I also enjoyed reading Caldjr blog on last week. Hard work.

Oh and Cumnock Chronicle has joined twitter.

It my day off tomorrow. Lets see what happens then.

Karaoke

Lori short video

I went to rugby club talked about website. Look out I might be busy.

I then went to The Sun, Cumnock did the usual karaoke. I did Wonderwall because I couldn't do Michael Jackson and Noel Gallagher being on Chris Moyles this morning.

The best signer by far is Lori, she won a competition a few years ago. she did Run by Snow Patrol which was covered by Leona Lewis. It was amazing. It took your attention quite easily.

The short video above is Lori doing Dignity by Deacon Blue. I also took a quick photo.

Just for an example I have a short video of Brian as well.

I am glad the Sunshines were out.

Thursday 9th July

Bus into Cumnoock









Me
Hello guys, well I finally have a day off where I didn't get up early. I think I had better do some work on the cumnockrugby website (the old one).
Also I hope everybody rugby connected gets the detail on 10th October event.

But the main plan is to relax.

Noel Gallagher from Oasis was on Chris Moyles this morning and was very good.

I have also signed the petition on Johnnie Walker plant owned by Diageo closing plant in Hurlford, losing over 700 jobs in an East Ayrshire economy which doesn't need that.

On a lighter note I have been watching more BBC Reporting Scotland with Catriona Shearer being main anchor at the moment.

Torchwood is also very good this week. Really enjoying it.

Friday and Saturday

Well here we go. I went back to work yesterday and already knew I was going to be busy. So get to work, I was right, had deliveries from day before to finish checking and the shop was quite brisk. Only had Claire and Myra. Rachel was in at 2pm and it was Ann's day off. Supermarket was busy as well and borrowed Myra when it got busy. I also had another couple of deliveries later on which I didn't get near. We just about got through Thrusdays boxes even though I didn't get them all away. I think we were all tired.

We all know what happenned Thursday night/Friday morning (Michael Jackson), so radio was totally just all about him. It did pale if you knew there was Iraqis dying and all we got was 1 talented musician dying (nothing against him).

Well finished work and got the bus home. Next I had some shopping to do. So walked down to Tesco with 4 bags. I had emptied my cupboards and freezer so I had the need of a big shop. I am glad to say thats what I did. Booked a taxi home (even though it only takes 5/10 minutes to walk down. I had filled my bags.

So got home with my taxi, did a bit on the computer then had money to give to somebody then had a few pints. I got my Hawiian pizza at my favourite shop in Cumnock and got a taxi home. I ate the pizza and went to bed. You can see from my karaoke post I did some "singing".

I wasnt feeling 100% when I got out of bed at 7am this morning. I could barely eat my cereal. So got the bus at 8.20am tried to find shoes I need to buy in Ayr (just bought Franz Ferdinand and ne-yo albums at HMV). Went into work.

All 5 of us were in today. We got through all the deliveries and it was a bit better. The shop looks good again. We are open 9-6 Saturday and Sunday and 9-5 Monday - Friday so thats why I started at 10am today and tomorrow.

I didn't get home until 7.30 so I missed most the Andy Murray game. The highlights we just got were a bit short. I could have been doing empties across in community centre but after knowing what time I would get home I said I couldnt (oh yeah and I aint really wanting another shift after todays shift).
