Day 9 photos

A trip to the hospital in photos

 Amazingly odd walking over this word

 In the older parts of the hospital they have some really nice floor... like they used to make an effort...like it was a craft...

 Bodge job on the way to a bus

 Even in the concrete city centre 'green' survives and creeps in. can you spot it?

The new floor in the centre. Big squares of different colours...no idea why.

Day 8 New grub

Good evening readers. Today has been a day of new tastes.

First off I tried banana in my cereal. I may have done it before but couldnt remember. The conclusion... I'd rather eat a normal banana on its own. 

But thats about it. For new experiences and unwasted time I don't like this day though chore wise lots got done...

Day 7 not so new

So we start the day with my clubs newsletter. Its looking nice and neat with everything you need in there. We recently started tweaking it and have a new design but that started before this new 99 days so I'm not counting it. Click here to check it out...

By 9am I've fixed a wobbly toilet seat and I'm heading out. 

A good day mostly with the bonus £5 off the first Christmas presents brought (diary.... Tip: get them early before they've gone), it pays to be nice sometimes.

The only rage was again at ill mannered people on the bus. Children sat in elderly and disabled seating area when those older or more broken than even me stood. Old (usually but not always large) men taking up two seats... Its enough to make anyone screams for etiquette lessons. 

But forget that! You're not here to rage, right? the best bit and a new 'craft' I've discovered is tshirt design. on sites like Redbubble you can design and sell your own designs. They take care of everything like pritning and postage and you set the profit margin you want. There is nothing like getting an email that says "you've made a sale!" The first one wasnt too long ago and though todays sale of stickers only made me 6p who cares! I was still smiling.  

Day 6 planning

 Hi everyone, ((apologies for the not quite daily updates, life sometimes creeps in the way))

But as you may know when I am not a library assistant I'm captain of StarBase Leicester possibly the longest running scifi and fantasy group in the whole city!  This itself creates lots of to do lists and often leads to new and exciting activities.

Today I was planning Octobers event, a trip to Megazone where we take over the entire arena and I was pleased to discover its a brand new arena! Gave me the urge to decorate the house with glow in the dark paint.

Next up was the newest thing possible... thanks to Interact Labs here in Leicester we're arranging to have the Oculus Rift at our birthday event! The brand new virtual reality gizmo every gamer wants. 

In fact if you like making things, robots, etc these are the guys to check out at Interact labs

So today we had planning for new SBL activities and meeting someone new (from interact labs)   Lets see if we can do better.... send in suggestions!

Day 5, thinking time

hello again on this Sunday evening.


today was lots of tidying and I tried building a shelving unit from scraps... Didn't work need actual wooden shelves;














 another project to wait on the list.


this reminds me a blog should have pictures. So more to come of what will hopefully be some interesting activities.


a few new things this week. An ok start but I can do better!
