A Quick Update - council, james, hockey etc

A quick update as I know I haven't posted anything for a week.

Had a council meeting on Monday evening - not a lot went on - the elections are in May of course - a few are standing down and a few standing again - I was handed a form but declined it - so guess I've decided i'm not standing again. I am still kind of torn by it as I do enjoy it - knowing what is going on in the village I have grown up in - but I cannot justify it any more - even though I do do more that some others!! The only other interesting things were a protest by a resident who is spending a lot of time complaining about the sign post for the new building and that Debenham House on the NSE (Which is opposite where I live) and why that is boarded up - it is leased to the Mental Health Trust for another 70+ years - the NSE has offered a price which they've accepted but some other beaureacrats have said it isn't enough so there is a stalemate - in which time it is vandalised and generally trashed - which is no use to anyone.

Played two games of hockey at the weekend - was pretty tired on Sunday evening - especially as the fabulous short cut I took home past Goodwood races from Worthing must have added at least 45 minutes - well done Watsy.... sorry about that Dave and Mark! Turned up just in time for Roast Chicken at Warren and Zoe's though lol.

Work has been manic as normal - launched a new web site but will do a blog on that later in the week. Another of my customers offered me two days a week at their offices on web design - it is a very very interesting project, but i'm not sure yet.

James and Rebecca have been super cool as always. James has taken several shaky steps forward now - he is also teething at the moment - he hasn't been anywhere near as knocked out by it as Rebecca was though. He is also saying mama and dada - though it might just be coincidence still. They both wake up at about 6.15am at the moment - Rebecca shouting for Mummy or Daddy. Sarah is tired at the moment working hard but generally speaking they are all on good form.

I'm just wondering whether to carry on with this blog - when I started it I was a parish councillor, sports club directory, village appraisal member and on the board at the youth club - i'm none of those now - so not really much to post about in the future...
