Hmm, another monthly update.

What is it with life? It suddenly seems to have become so much more serious over the last year or so.

I'm saying this because over the last 12 months, several people I know have passed away in pretty un-rock and roll curcumstances. People never used to just die like this, and certainly not in these numbers. It's not like the old days I tell you.

I'm not complaining about being sad, sadness is part of the cycle of life. I'm not kidding myself when I say that my new way of being sad is a good thing.

Conversely, the highs in my life recently have been higher, which is great. I seem to have developed more of a willingness to stick my head above the parapet. Perhaps some sort of sub-concious 'life's too short' thing I'm doing recently.

I've had a few days work here and there over the last few weeks, which has made me a lot happier. The last few weeks have seen my general fitness really come on in leaps and bounds. I've been telling people that since I got out of bloody hospital, but its true.

I'll be climbing Everest next month. Perhaps.

I bought a suit for work, I did a trackday at the Motorsport Club on the hillclimb track and hoovered my bedroom.

I'm flush.
