April 2024

01 April. It’s near 7.30am UK time and this is the first time this year that I’ve had the time to do an entry. I’m at a new project and I’ve needed the extra time to focus. I’ve got the extra time just now because I’m not sleeping well due to my legs and I’ve been awake for some time. I’ve so many ambitions for this site for this month, but I need to focus to be able to achieve them all. I won’t succeed because I’m a one man band and the finances are restricted to put it mildly, but it’ll get my best shot. 06 April. It’s 5am UK time, had a crap sleep, my legs really sore, finally gave up. I was supposed to be seeing my granddaughter this morning, but I sent a WhatsApp last night to my son saying I’ve a bit of a cold and would benefit from trying for a long lie and that both my legs are really sore. I’ve been on the day job, I don’t know if I’ll be able to last till my retirement time in November, it’ll just be the state pension I’ll get, not much, but I want to hold on so as I get it, I’ll need it. I’ve a lot of March files to edit and sort for posting, and there are April files on the box, but I won’t have the time to touch them for now. 07 April. It’s 6.30pm UK time. I’ve been busy sorting out campaign files, not completed yet, but by the end of the day should be sorted. I watched the Old Firm game that ended a 3-3 draw, a game of two halves. One of those games that with the second half ended up exciting. But I watched the Man U-Liverpool game and that had the technical skill that the Old Firm had very little of. It’s all to do with money. It’s a cazy world we live in where morals and principles have less of a value than money! 10 April. It’s just left noon in the UK. Here in Scotland we have the SNP’s hated Hate Law and it’s very difficult to actually have any Free Speech in Scotland any more. I’m a mental health support worker and if this place and/or my Twitter/X feed get associated with my name, I will patently be out of a job! When on a sleepover I have GB News on in the background once I’m off the floor, and I grab perhaps half an hour in the morning, when finished I turn the tv off and one staff member has questioned my watching a ‘far right’ channel, they know cause it’s still on that channel when they put the tv back on. I say it’s labelled ‘far right’ and if being a Patriot and Defender of my nation, my nation being the UK, then ‘far right’ I am. Shall see how that pans out. It’s so difficult to keep living your principles here nowadays, Neil Oliver is a massive hero to me, he says it as it is, you catch him on Sunday on GB News. Problem he has as all us Scots have, he’s a fellow Scot and has the Hate Laws hanging over him. 18 April. It’s nearing 7am UK time. I’ve not done much with the site, gained some posts, did an edit on many, still got many to do. I’ve been more focused on the day job, or rather my legs being able to do the day job. The pain can be unsufferable, but it’s a pain that’s in one ankle then it’s in the other or both of them. Then the pain is at my knees and same story, or the legs mostly from the knees to ankles, mostly at the back of the legs, sometimes it’s the full leg and again that can be one leg, the other leg or both all in five minutes! Had an examination by a GP a couple of weeks ago, bloods came back normal. Need to make a GP consultation, want to talk to the same doc that gave me a terrific examination, need a diagnosis, getting fed up feeding myself with painkillers. Oh and the worst of it is when I lie down, the pain slowly overtakes usually both legs in a matter of minutes, weard. 19 April. It’s just left 10am UK time. I gained 5 files for April from the sky box yesterday, need to clear the box cause there ain’t that much space left. Need to sort out a few campaign files later. I’ve arranged for a GP phone consultation for this afternoon. I was examined by a GP regards my legs say three weeks ago, did bloods and they’ve came back normal. The phone consultation is that I need a diagnosis, what’s the reasons for the pain, I don’t want to constantly be taking painkillers. 21 April. It’s left 2pm UK time. I really need to do some work on the campaign files. I really need to work out how to promote this place. Anyway, I suppose I had better get on. 28 April. It’s just left 7am UK time and I’m on a sleepover on my day job. I’m on the floor at 8am till 2pm today. Nackered, been up most of the night, I’m using my laptop that I leave in my sleepover drawer to do this entry. This is day three of seven in a row on the day job, really tough. I’ve not had much of a chance to think about this place never mind working on it, I’m slowly coming to an end, at least that is how it feels at this end right now.
