Morning seemed to arrive earlier than usual. I did my weekly shop. I put together the paperwork for my vehicle licence application road tax and went to the post office. Unfortunately the post office had closed a few minutes earlier - half day closing! I delivered some advanced motorists magazines and cleared out most of the junk from my green house.
In evening my parents came for tea. I cooked a mild curry. We talked about my uncles funeral. Apparently he had a good send off, the church building was full and there was a police escort to the cemetery.

I must have been too active over the weekend as I didn't feel like getting out of bed in the morning. In the evening I had a quicker than usual workout at the gym.
Sunday - 23rd March
I got up early to watch the Malaysian Grand Prix. It was quite strange seeing Renaults on the first row of the starting grid. There was quite a bit of drama on and off the track. On the second corner Michael Schmacher ran into Trulli's Renault and several other cars hit the debris. With so many teams having different strategies it was hard to work out how everyone was doing. It certainly wasn't boring.
After church I cut the grass in my garden for the first time this year. Somehow a bolt on the lawnmower came undone so I will have to purchase a replacement.
I was sad to hear that a British Tornado had been hit by a patriot missile.

Saturday - 15th March
My developed photographs arrived. I did my washing and did my weekly shop. I finished putting up the plaster board in my loft. After eating lunch I felt tired, maybe it is something I have done?

Friday - 14th March
At work I fought my way through a small mountain of paper work and submitted the task to the Database Administrators.
In the evening I let out all my frustation at the gym and managed to lift the full stack of weights on the calf stretch. I had never lifted more than 3/4 of the stack before.
Thursday - 13th March
I purchased another piece of plaster board on the way home from work. Hopefully this will be the last one I need to finish off my loft.
Later in the evening I went to home group, it was at someone else's house so I didn't have to rush around tidying my house.
Wednesday - 12th March
After musicians I felt so tired it was about 10pm when I got home and I was asleep in minutes.
Tuesday - 11th March
Today I took my car to the garage. The passenger side electric window is now fixed so it shouldn't get stuck in the down position again. The mechanics couldn't find anything wrong with my clutch pedal so I still don't know why the pedal occasionally sticks in the down position.
I watched the "X men" DVD that one of my brothers lent me. It was strange to see captain picard in a wheel chair instead of the captains chair.

In the afternoon I put up some more plaster board in the loft. I will need to purchase one more plaster board and then the job should be done.
I posted off my latest film. Now I just have to patiently wait for the postman to return with the pictures.

My parents celebrated their joint 60th birthdays with friends and relatives. I took a few pictures...

I watched a program explaining the rule changes for this years Grand Prixs. Just a week to go to Australia.
The final day of the rally of Turkey. One of the rally driver did some emergency roadside repairs. The shock absorber had burst through the bulkhead so his solution was to put a large rock in the hole and rest the shock absorber on the rock.
I trimmed some of the branches on the apple tree in my garden as the branches were getting too low.
Saturday - 1st March
Spring is fast approaching, daffodils are popping up all over my garden and the frogs have come out of hibernation.
The rally of Turkey is in progress. There were several amusing scenes such as the car crossing the finishing line on its roof! Nobody was hurt though I don't suppose the mechanics were very pleased.
In the evening I went to a relations for a meal.
