I'm an engineer, so expect the expected. I dislike coriander. I like owls. I hate cold water. Repeating tensions such as clocks and dripping taps, which drive some people crazy, don't seem to affect me. I survived cancer in 2019. I once drank seven mugs of tea in 15 minutes. I have trouble understanding why people keep dogs as pets. All of my names contain 7 letters. My lowest three vertebrae are held in place by titanium rods. Deep water represents the unknown, which terrifies me. I read slowly. I eat quickly. I was briefly insane in the autumn of 1990. My happiest moments were spent throwing arrows around a field when I was 12. My favourite colour is blue. I rarely catch colds. I believe that not taking part in any physical activity after the age of 30 is the equivalent of not ducking when being punched. I accept and respect the existence of an opposite point of view. I wish I had a good plot idea so I could write a book. I have never bought a tabloid newspaper. I sink in water. Of the five people I spent my teenage years with, three are dead. I think that in a family context, love should be unconditional. I believe to the core of my being that man's most divisive and destructive creation is God. I neglected my father and regret it now he's gone. I can hear and memorise numbers instantly and retain them indefinitely, but forget what my wife tells me in seconds. I dislike fruit in desserts. Masks scare me. Only my family should shorten my first name. I intend to live to the age of 121. There is no retina in my right eye. I've been to five continents but I hate sight-seeing.

ReplyDelete-Isn't that a song by Billy Bragg??
Ha, you could be right. How they treating you at Thales? I see a lot of hour-counting on Arsebook.
ReplyDeleteIts going pretty well at the moment, working on Thames. I'm writing the program that gets the tag database from the existing RTAP SCADA and converts it and populates the ArchestrA db using GRAccess - all fancy Csharpiness.
ReplyDeleteIts all going well now....but ask me again when I get to converting the CE functions to scripts & udas....there's little standardisation on the existing stuff!
Riveting stuff you chaps have to talk about ... meanwhile in my boring old life I, *sigh* had nowt better to do than use and abuse the body of a very hunky young able bodied man ... LOL ...
ReplyDeleteAaahhh well a woman has to do what a woman has to do ...
So have fun counting the hours ... This one likes my cooking, climbs mountains, drives a Ford Mondeo and lives in Nenagh ... a ghost from the past in my future ... I certainly hope so ...
An Irishman, after all the moaning you've done about the natives? traitor.

ReplyDeleteSo ... I tried to paste a copy of his pic here but I cant - enuf to say he is 38, lean and gorgeous. A mountain climber and bit of explorer ... been to the artic and all that. So y'all know my passion for the ultimate Camel Man Adventurer and this is as close as I have come ... an hilarious trip from a couch-potato ex husband, via a nattily dressed darling of an englishman who developed a mad passion for cycling and trekking thru to this new adventure.
ReplyDeleteWell we havent had too many adventures just yet but will keep you posted.
So please excuse me while I go and tie some ropes or do whatever it is that Camel Woman should do. Chat soon ... Bye
