I don't know why the April 4 (Saturday) set originally wanted to display in reverse order. You might have figured out (though I don't see why you should if you weren't there) that the Saturday set started with sheep, then Crewe station, and ended with The Green Man pub. I've now flipped it so that it works the same as all the rest, starting at the top and working down. So, here are Skipton, on Monday, The Walk To Bolton Abbey (Tuesday) (And btw, I think that's about the most adorable lamb ever!), Bolton Abbey and Beyond The Abbey. That set ends at a bridge, which was not at all the end of the walk.


Some pics posted slightly out of order, and I have no idea why. Why is Flickr so difficult? It's probably just me, but it seems as if there's so many ways to manipulate things that I get confused and can't do the things that I would think should be easiest. And I'd have been happier if it hadn't tricked me into changing the names on the pics I posted in the first set. All well and good to give them new titles, but now they've got stupid long titles because it told me that I was adding a description, and getting their original numbers back on them will be hell. Not to be taken up this moment. I was going to post more pics this morning, but time seems to be slipping by more quickly than I had anticipated and I should probably take a shower, pack my uniform, find a book which I want to read, and take the van up to the Falmouth. It needs a minor bit of work, a gasket on the oil pan. (And quite possibly more oil, by this time.)

Yesterday I had quite a headache all day. Duffy suggested I drill a hole in my head to let the evil out, and that sounded as if it would be just as useful as anything else. ;) Although I've got to admit it did relieve some pressure to talk with Ceejay and, when I got home, with Eor. Then I had dinner, two drinks, lots of vitamins, and read jokes for a while, and that did the trick. Less messy than a drill. ;)

Let me tell you about some small, tiny, miniscule part of the stupid that makes my head hurt!

I'm working the Walk Through, and some guy presents himself wearing a loose sweatshirty sort of thing. I think it's polite to let people know what's coming, so I said, "If you wear that jacket through I'll have to get you some additional screening, so you have the option now, if you wish, of putting it through the x-ray instead."

"Oh, sure!" he said, cheerfully, "Nobody's ever asked me to do that before, but I understand why..." and he stripped it off. He had nothing on underneath.

I took delighted harassement from the coworkers for the rest of the day. "I expect big thing from you next time I'm working with you!" Father said, "BVDs at the very least!" I'm never going to live this down. He could have told me that it wasn't a jacket, or that he didn't have anything on underneath.

I'm trying to decide whether to buy a copy of Nameless, [livejournal.com profile] copperbadge's new book. I didn't read any of it while he was posting it, thinking I would wait until it was all done (since he was doing revisions constantly, based on feedback). I could download the free copy... but the cost of the physical copy goes up next week... and then shipping is another $6 or $8... uh oh, don't want to give myself another headache. I'd better eat, and consider this again tomorrow.

I'm very confused by [livejournal.com profile] copperbadge's assertion on one of his recent posts that he is straight.


Oh crap, I forgot I had goals for today. Going, now!!

Thank you SO much for posting them on Flickr; they're so much easier to view than Facebook, and the slideshow is a nice feature.

I've been trying to put the movies on CD so they can be played on your DVD, but I've hit a sang and not gotten back to it. Now I realize I'm coming up on a deadline to get them in the mail - eeek!

Hugs!
