The cheapest Pay as you Go is a bit crap. Its standard over here to have to pay for INCOMING calls and texts. How rubbish is that. The other thing is they charge you 3$ of your credit every month before it runs dry. why? America...
The deal doesn't come with mobile internet. The cheapest deal on that is $40 for 4Gb of data for the month. It would be ideal if there were a $10 for 1Gb but there just isn't.
However I can add 1Gb of data for $10, for ONE WEEK OF USE. Lame.
I wondered around two shopping areas along my walk. I have yet to see a Denny's, McDonalds, Burger King, Pizza Hutt, KFC or anything you would expect to see. Nothing! Not even in LA along the way by taxi.
Sabine and I went for another walk around the park. Its getting a bit samey now. On the way back a few resident workers of this apartment complex were driving around in their golf buggy. They stopped next to us to hand out free sweats, saying its something they usually do on Tuesdays. Sabine chose Skittles, I chose Starburst/Opel Fruits. Opel Fruits was a better name. Why did they re-name them?
We reheated the dinner food from yesterday. There is some left for tomorrow too. But we might have to add pasta to it. We cant afford any flavourings like pasta sauce.
Im getting very lonely. I miss talking to people. I tried talking to those in the T Mobile shop but the conversation didn't last. Sabine is all I have :'(
The letter box was full of junk mail/ superstore offers. The funniest thing I saw was an ice cream named 'Fat Boy'. lol On a more interesting note, there was a picture of Boysenberry yogurt. Might need to check that out! As for my jar of the jam, I find it best to eat a (clean) teaspoon of it every now and then rather than use the bread up.

ReplyDeleteBlue tits flew the nest. Kept an eye on them all day but could only see two babies by the afternoon. What happened to the others I don't know.
ReplyDeleteShowed Alan and Sabine the babies resting up in the flower border via live Facebook link.
Cleaned the bird box out. The nest used was full of maggots underneath the nest. Second nest built, but not used. Third compartment had been used by a spider, possibly over winter.
Resealed the roof of the bird box with sealant and cut a piece of pond liner to waterproof the roof for next year.
Digging out that annoying needle thread rooted weed that has been in the hedge border between the front and back garden since we moved here. Will plant up with flowers. Am also sifting the soil so I can use some to sow grass seeds on the patchy back lawn.
Played walking football yesterday at The Downs, and even though it was very leisurely paced I am pretty tired today.
Played football over at Moulsecoomb in the evening. Furious pace, and I am pretty lightweight compared to the others who are much younger. Absolutely shattered. Mum watched and enjoyed it. Picked up fleece and glasses I left there last week.
I only played today so as to guarantee a game next week as there is no walking football on Monday (bank holiday).
Have taken air-vent down from ceiling in Alan's room and filled it with plaster board and filler. I need to work out a way of making it look stippled.

ReplyDeleteWhen we get our bikes that wont be too bad. But by walking thats still too far away
ReplyDeleteI was only showing you where the nearest one was. I guess for trade a lot of them are always going to be near main roads and junctions.
ReplyDeleteNo sign of them today.
