The start, or possibly the beginning...

Having promised myself to do this for a couple of months now, I am now blogged up.

You can read my profile to find out a few not terribly relevant things about me, so I thought maybe I'd start by talking about some of the things going on in my world today.

I'm unreasonably pleased with the fact that I have managed to get myself a Blackberry for work - trying to manage my diary and contacts on an ancient Nokia phone was not going well and I'm quite excited to have upped my gadget-count with a shiny new bit of kit. I haven't worked out how to do everything with it so far but gosh it's exciting.

It's been a long working week and I'm quite glad it's now friday. It's going to be a busy weekend, though, with friends, family and a band rehersal on Sunday. I play guitar in a covers band, mostly playing Working Mens Clubs - subject of a future post!

My wife (hereafter known as M) and I have just joined a local gym after years of sloth. We had our health checks done yesterday by a friendly but sickeningly healthy individual called Chris. Unsurprisingly we're both pretty unfit (despite M spending all her time on her feet during the day) but we're going to start getting fitter, dammit! The club itself is quite nice and not too intimidating for us so hopefully we'll be able to stick at it. We're there again tonight for an induction session.

I get the feeling this is going to be one of those days where not a lot happens. Friday's can be like that around here as people 'work from home' or attend 'meetings' near their homes! I can't be too holier-than-thou, however, I'd do it myself if I could!

I'll work up some ire on the world later today and post a bile-filled entry on the cretins we have as a political class. Need more tea first.
