Hope For A More Peaceful Night Tonight.

Really noticed that the Fijnhout theatre was open again as after the performance they partied until around 04.00.

Around midnight it was quite quiet but the later it got the louder the music got, every now and then the theatre door was opened so people could no doubt smoke outside.

They all shout at each other and being involved with the theatre their voices carry, more so because it was late.

It is amazing what alcohol does to people, guess in the past that included me too, as alcohol makes one louder and more prone to arguing too.

Shame the people from the theatre can’t be more aware that they are not in the town centre but right in the middle of a residential street.

Right opposite people’s bedrooms, horrible trying to sleep with people sounding like braying hyenas at 02.00 in the morning.

Perhaps they would not be shouting to each other after midnight if they were more aware of their surroundings, but it seems not.

Amazingly this theatre is a nice middle class enclave, if it had been working class the police would be there issuing them warning, but they can get away with their ‘artistic exuberance’.

I can see that we will have to endure many more disturbed sleepless nights like last night, makes me hope for torrential rain.

Be good on the nights the theatre is open so no one can hang on the street after midnight, shouting at people next to them and shrieking.

I feel abit like a killjoy but surely it is not too much to ask for quiet certainly after 02.00 at the weekend.

Had to take half a sleeping tablet which sadly did not get me off to sleep as quickly as I had hoped it would.

Eventually it worked I know it did because I woke up and it was mid morning, we are both still very drowsy, hope tonight will be more peaceful.

A friend's garden in Wales.


It was a pleasant Easter weekend and surprise surprise even the weather played its part and it was warm and sunny.

Sadly not everyone had good weather, remember many rainy weekends when I was still working what a wind up it could be.

All week at work it would be beautiful weather and hey presto come Saturday morning it would be raining and go on all weekend.

Then on the Monday morning it would be brilliant weather for work!

Today it’s lovely again now I can appreciate it, this morning when the children were gathering for an exciting day at the Fijnhout theatre opposite I felt differently.

Tried to drift off to sleep again once the kids had gone into the theatre sadly Spike's timing was impeccable and he started to flap his ears.

They are like pistol shots going off so after that did not succeed in sleeping again as the usual MS pain became noticeable again.

Did my arm exercises and then Richie worked his usual magic with the leg massage and THC and baclofen for leg spasms.

After that I was quite ready to start the day and was rather looking forward to the visit from my lovely friend Marianne and seeing the photos of her weekend in Limburg.
