Please give a warm welcome to the newest addition to the Grice-Berry’s, Dexter the dog!

He’s about 3 months old now and is a Chihuahua/Jack Russell cross (Jackhuahua??). He likes crotches, biting, ear lobes and cheese. In that order. His dislikes include; walking in the rain, buses, being on his own and baths. In fact, that all goes for me too.
Going to the park with him is like escorting a celebrity. I was close to asking members of the public to respect his privacy. “LEAVE DEXTER ALONE!! “


In other news, I have taken my trainers out of their box (still has that lovely new smell) and am geared up for a new bout of getting fit. I get this silly idea annually and usually give up by 3 weeks. So now it’s the turn of 2011! I’ve bought EA Sports Active 2 for the Wii and am currently on the 9 week program – Day 4. Even the muscles in my toes hurt! Still no pain, no pain.

Bloody hell! A new post!

Every post seems to have to start with an apology, so here it is. I'm sorry (Will) for not updating more. Done.

Recently I've been feeling a bit unsure as to where I belong. Reading blogs and looking at old photos makes you realise where you've been but it doesn't really tell you what's next. I've realised I don't belong at home anymore, a realisation everybody makes at some point. I felt I belonged at Manorgate, even if it was temporary. I know I don't belong at Andi's as he has his new place and the least I can do for him is make him feel he belongs there like he did with me. So, what next?

The plan!

Oh yes, Amanda has inspired me. When asked what she's going to do now, she simply said 'I'm on point 3 of the plan'. This, apparantly, is a ten year plan. Now of course I've thought planning for the future in roundabout ways but I've never thought to get it on paper with bullet points, fancy lettering and then lock it away.

So, the plan is in construction.

On lighter news, I hear the cry of "What's griding Gricey's gears today?" The answer, shop cashiers giving you change on top of the receipt.

Back once again (for the renegade master?)

Hi everyone,

Its been way too long since I put a new post up, but I'm making a renewed effort to pick things up again. There's a lot of pressure on an overdue post, so instead of having to think too much, I'm doing a picture post.

These are all the photos that I took with the now deceased mobile that someone *cough* Will *cough* murdered. Some are odd, some are nice.

It's Time For Martin Buckaroo

Never fall asleep in the Manor Gate House!

Forgotten Firework Fotos

While the pressure is off, I thought i'd share my photos from bonfire night. I tried to capture the fireworks on my camera however it didn't quite turn out as planned. Instead of getting beautiful pictures of perfect explosions, I ended up with what I shall call 'an abstract and modern take on gunpowder'. Still, they look pretty in their own special way.

Ye Of Little Faith

It may of taken all night, but the end result was an essay of breathtaking beauty.
I now need sleep, cigarettes, rock band guitar and a glass of wine in that order.

Sarah Palin?

Hahahaha. In your face, moose hunter!
