man I suck.
jeez. im really sorry guys that i havnt posted in a week, nor have i got any Malaysia stuff ready for you. Between one thing and another i just havnt got round to doing it. I got a bunhca photos developed the other day though, and got the picture CD that came with em, so this morning im going to upload and resize a selection and either tomorrow or sometime this week i'll be posting part 1 of Darke's Malaysian Adventure! really sorry i havnt done much towards this. and thank you to all who commented on my last post. i missed you guys.

So whats been happening in my life this past week?

tuesday i did my bike basic training (again) so i can legally ride Luna. however, i've also had to get the insurance sorted and i've had to get her re-taxed...the insurance was done last wednesday, but they havnt got round to sending the cover note through to me and without it, I cant get Luna taxed and thus cannot ride her legally on the roads. *sigh* its so much hassle. its taken up a sizable chunk of my time.

wednesday i went to the crematorium with my mum and some of my dads family to collect my nans exhumed ashes. we put em in a nice little casket and re-buried her in a little apple tree we put in my grandad's garden. it was a really annoying though, cuz the crematorium gave us the ashes in a polythene bag, which was placed in a cardboard box. you cannot put dead people in a cardboard box, im sorry. luckily there was this place nearby and they had some samples of brand new caskets for exhumed remains, and they kindly sold us one of these sample products. they transferred the ashes from the airtight bag into the casket, which was nice of them. the casket is a really nice metal one with ornate designs on it, its much better then anything else we could have buried her in.

thursday i went back to cadets. nthing much has changed there. ^^; i kinda regained my motivation for it slightly though since being away.

friday i went back to snorkelling club, which was fun, and i also went to see my buddy Nick. it was his 19th birthday on thursday so i went and said hi, and showed him the photos from Malaysia (which i will beuploading shortly, promise!!) it was great to see him again. i kinda missed the last bus home though, and had to call my dad. damn, i wish i could start riding already. >.<

this weekend mum n dad are doing alot of little tasks around the house such as putting up shelves and stuff. i help here and there, but most of the time its best just to stay out of the way. ^^;

This week i wanna go up london and catch up on my anime. ^^ plus maybe look into buying plane tickets. we'll see.

im also gonna call keith (my boss) and see if i can get my old job back. i really need cash. ^^; although im gonna see if i can just work downstairs this time, i hated working in the restaurant before i left.

and thats it from me. no piccies or anything. its raining here (although not as hard as it did in Malaysia!!! )

im gonna leave you with an extract from my Malaysia journal.

"After lunch we went and challenged the Park Rangers to a game of footy. (soccer in case yuir wondering) So far during this expedition the rangers have always won against Raleigh, but today we forced the into a draw...although we did have to extra people on our side, who were rangers, and we were kinda cheating a little bit. ^^; Still, a 3-3 draw and only at the expense of their goalie! (merv, our Project manager accidently took him out. Whoops!!!) Tonight we're going to the Scientist Rest-House to sit on their comfy chairs! Oh yeah, one other thing - I went to cut the sleeves off one of my Raleigh T-shirts and accidently cut them off one of Merv's t-shirts instead!!! Whoops! He was ever so slightly bemused. I fear his retaliation! ^^;;; "
