I am now getting my dinner cooked for me, due to the fact that I am the reigning connect four champion in this household. wooooo wooooo. Its all gone quiet over that side...hahahaha
Now I'm not a bad looser, just not a gracious winner. haha I won!
The reason behind it was the fear that now that we're not working we didn't want to become the stereotypical veg in front of the TV types, now personally I could sit on here twiddling with blogs, facebook and various forums all night, but apparently that's unsociable. What!
So we now have non TV days where we play games or plan extensive walking routes on OS maps. The only slight problem is that I'm very competitive and sporty and my girlfriend is strategic and loves to beat at something, anything, just to say she can because she knows its unlikely to happen on a bike or board.
The thing she omitted to tell me when she casually challenged me to chess is that she was a member of the chess club at college for 3 years and regularly played at home. This she tells me after toying with me for 2 hours, gets bored, wants to finish the game and check mates me in 3 moves.
Hence we now have to play slightly less strategic games ( connect 4, jenga, tiddly winks) to give me a fighting chance and I have to give her a head start on a bike to reciprocate. Were hoping this way we wont have to many fall outs, but still...I am the champion, I am the champion, No sign of losers cos I am........

How to use a naked lady to figure out if you use the left or right side of your brain
Yes your right I'm bored. Well not exactly bored its just averaging 30knts out there and I've scared myself silly kitesurfing for half an hour until I deemed that enough was enough and came in before I hurt myself. Well I wouldn't want to ruin the rest of my time off after quiting work to live in wales in traction would I!
So nice and showered and warm again, I was just perusing the net and came across this in the Australia Herald.
It shows a turning lady. Yep and she naked. You have to look at her and see if you see her spinning left or right.
This apparently determines whether you use your left or right side of the brain for your decision making
I'm not going to tell you anymore because I don't want to influence your view. It had me transfixed for about half an hour.
Check out the meaning of this at the Heralds Blogg and leave me a comment back here to compare results.
Oh yeah and I'm a righty BTW

Local Foot Hunt Invades Residential site for the morning
We've had random packs of hounds running round the site for the last hour now, more interested in fussing round us than they are tracking foxes. Things are a little different here then the hunts back in Leicester, just as disorganised if a little more interesting to watch. Its not that I agree or disagree with hunting I was just brought up used to seeing it and watching this bunch of tweed coated farmer types thrash around in bushes with a pack of unruly hounds, I'm sorry but its nothing in comparison to a full blown posse of red coats on horse back blowing horns thundering past following a pack of still unruly hounds, followed by 100 plus followers on horse back. Sorry but the two just don't compare.
So getting bored of that quite quickly and as the rain is set in for the day I think I'd better have a pottering about day doing a few jobs until its time to go to the Aberdovey fireworks show, which is suposed to be on Sunday night according to the Dyfi Diary but now it appears to be tonight and hopefully the bonfire wont be washed away by a high tide this year.
