This summer......

......I have felt very much alive....

...... I have slept....

...... I have found my own little secret path to being happier....

...... I have had some odd little health nasties....

......I have seen something akin to a massive, fuck-off black cat running at full pelt across the hills in Sonning

...... I have realised that just because someone is special to you does not mean they are especially special....

...... I have been drunk as a lord....

...... I have pondered for hours....

......I have been in the same room as a real life Sloth....

...... I have had manna from Heaven....

...... I have felt older....

......I have been full of self doubt....

......I have laughed like a drain....

......I have had amazing sex....

......I have signed on the dole for the first time in my life....

......I have had cause to be grateful....

......I have been absorbed with music....

......I have realised that I will never be an accomplished guitar player....

......I have read 'I Claudius'....

......I have taken someone's breath away....

......I have written a short story....

Well put it this way Mags, it has been so toe-curlingly great, at one point I thought I'd left my tights on!

The only details I can possibly give is a fact you already know Mags; that sex is so much better with someone you've loved for a very long time.

Oh Kate, you are so right! I find it funny that people who have been together for years say their sex life has gone stale and boring. OK, so me and Mr Mags are not at it like little bunny rabbits every night of the week anymore but oooooohhhhhh, (that was my Harry met Sally moment, short form) we know each other so well and what makes each other tick and tock. The longer we have been together, the better it has got. The combination of all that experience with one another means that sometimes he only has to touch me in a very certain way and I'm, well I'm, you know, I'm nearly ....there!

Fancy wearing tights though!

Pleased that this is going so well for you. Hope that it lasts....forever.

Right on the money Mags!

This time last year we were apart, seemingly dead in the water, but with lots of time spent together and a fair amount of thrashing about, I reckon we're better than ever!

Good luck to you and your lovely Mr Mags. it all sounds rather nice in your house.

Hello Span,

Don't be hating just because I've been having a marvellous time of it.....I've been recharging my jaded soul and feel like a new woman for it.

Hope you get some soon...LOL!!

Love you !!!!!!

Hi Six,

It really has been fun, and I reckon I have stocks of energy and enthusiasm to set me up nicely to do what I have to do.

Not moved yet but it's all down to the final 'yes' and we're off!

hating? I presume you mean like something with a hat...

P.S. I forgot to ask...what was the 'manna'?

Tuesday, August 22, 2006 9:17:00 PM  
Blogger Kayfer Kettle said...

Howdy Span,

Yes hatting....a terrible way to live one's life!

The Manna came in the form of a cheque.

I had a decision to make as to whether I got myself into debt for something (a very good reason, but not something I make a habit of).

Anyhoo, there I am all in two minds as to what to do, and that morning the cheque arrived from a savings investment I started 10 years ago, and was £40 over the amount I needed.

It's a sign!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've lost the plot with the cheque comment, but what the fuck...

Lovely Katey, I am so glad for you!

The main man, has come back I presume? Not C's Dad but the partner of decade's long time?

(See I pay attention, even if the others don't!)

Ah the lovely Gavin!

Well I've re-read the whole cheque thing and I really can't see what your problem is Clear and concise it is, and I can only suggest that you may have been drunk when you read it!

The main man is indeed back in my life, and has been for some time - Christmas time was when things took their better turn.. We've just been 'courting' all over again and things are really very ok. Priorities are straighter and I reckon we can forget staring into each other's eyes as long as we're both looking out in the same direction.

Now, Lena...about this short story...

What about this short story?

It began as a challenge from a friend of mine. She said she thought I could write one, I said I couldn't. Turns out she was right!

And so has my brother! You are either both right or both nuts. You choose. Either way you are not alone.

...I read 'I, Claudius'...

I thought I came out of that quite well. ;-)

Augustus!

Well I never! It's so much better to hallucinate in company is it not? Seriously though, I have to believe what I saw, and I hope you can reassure him now that he's correct. Was it in the same area? I'm guessing so....

Oddly enough, you have been popping into my head as I turn the pages of I Claudius, every time I see your illustrous name appear!

Hope all is well fella.

That anonymous bloke is always playing the wanker isn't he? Odd that. And he posts so much...

My brother drives through Sonning several times a week and he said he saw it as he drove over the bridge, past the hotel and towards the Henley Road in the field on his right. This is going back a year or so though. He said he wasn't sure and the thing that struck him was a feeling of false perspective and not really believing his own eyes. There's no doubt these big cats are all over the country. The sightings are becoming more frequent.

Katey, you know that I am really happy for you and everything but purely from selfish point of view, now that you are relationship-ing and having brilliant sex etc you don't blog very much and I do miss your entertaining and often thought provoking posts.

I suppose though that on reflection I would rather have you happy than blogging!

Just thought I would let you know that you are missed.

Augustus,

I reckon we were on that same road and I go along with what your brother said about disbelief borne of perspective.

There is no doubt that it was way too large to be a domestic cat, but the distance away also lends doubt to what it actually was.

Tantalising and frustrating.

Mags you lovely lady....that was very sweet of you and I shall make sure that I blog more reguarly from now on. The pressure to deliver fine material is on!

I can't pretend that I'm not affected by such praise, but from you my dear Mags, I feel it is high praise indeed.

I will be moving very soon (the juice man from Del Monte, he say YES!) and I have just had a marvellous time away, which I shall wirte about later on.

Cheers Mags.

Hi K,

You seem to have had a great time : I'm glad. I too have taken peoples breath away. The trouble is this is usually accompanied by cries of "You dirty bastard!".

I've been a bit lax in my blogging lately. Minor "issues" at home and then at work but nothing that can't be sorted.

Tuesday, September 05, 2006 4:11:00 PM  
Blogger Linda Mason said...

Katey, I'm blushing because I am neither lovely nor a lady but it is nice being called both!

I wouldn't worry about providing us with "fine material", just really boring stuff that sends Span to sleep as on my blog. Apparently my recent blog 'series' sent Span to sleep every night! Seriously just let us know that you are OK and all that stuff.

Good luck with the move. Cheeky question....I know you're young enough to, but will you be having babies when you move because you have been putting in a lot of baby making practice. If you do I shall be oh so jealous and might have a strop because I've been really broody recently but having one at my age really isn't on. I don't fancy picking up child benefit and my pension all in one go!

Tuesday, September 05, 2006 10:18:00 PM  
Blogger Kayfer Kettle said...

Well Mags, I must confess that I don't feel my baby making days are over, but since my sister has become a grandmother and only 3 years older than me, it feels slightly out of sync, if you see what I mean. My boy will be 18 in January, and while I'm sure there are no babies on the horizon for him, I don't fancy being a mummy and a granny at the same time.

Oh but the smell of those little necks eh Mags...........

Ooooh nice little avatar there Span.

I shall try and post on your blog later, as I have not been visiting as much as I'd like....absolutely mad busy packing up all the shit I've accumulated but cannot bear to part with.

Did I mention I was moving house and so excited I could pee my pants?

It's the feel of those gorgeous soft little bottoms that do it for me Kate, well when they're clean.

My sister is three years younger than me but if her son's girlfriend had gone ahead with a pregnancy a few years ago, she would have been a Granny before my youngest was born. Mind it seems a popular thing around here and where Mr Mags comes from. For example, my Mom's old next door neighbour became a granny one month and a mother again herself the next!

I get very confused with Mr Mags's lot. His Uncle is the same age as me and his Step Aunt is the same age as Mr Mags. They've just had a little boy who was an Uncle before he was born. And get this not only do I have a Grandmother in law, but I also have a Great Grandmother in law. I wouldn't mind but I never got a full set of Grandparents but it's the way they breed 'em I suppose!

So what I am saying all this for? Who knows? Seriously go with the flow and do what is right for you although one word of warning...it's a lot harder when you're older, the pregnancy and shattered nights bits I mean.

I have a nephew who is 15 months older than me. This is because my eldest brother is 22 years older than me and started a family (accidentally, I might add) before his parents had finished, if you know what I mean. Said brother is now 73 and on wife number 4.

Hello LPJ,

Nice to see you here.

This brother of yours; does he manage to trade each wife in for a younger, fitter model or is he just a glutton for punishment?!

To be honest, I don't think my brother can help himself. He seems to realise this but it seems very little, if anything, can "cramp his style".

Kate, the words snowball, hell and chance appear in my mind amongst others. Pensions and child benefit were never meant to be paid to the same person at the same time.
