I am back in my office now. The very first thing that my colleagues asked about my holiday was the weather. Well, I thought the weather was good, bright and sunny most of the time even though the blowing wind made us cold. But the weather in Basingstoke changes a lot. Yesterday was very hot when we reached home, but it was raining in the morning today.
Mee and I are very tired and I was not able to get up on time today and wished that I could have extended my leaves. Anyway, I am here now and have to get back to work.
It is almost afternoon now and our friends had gone to do her research in the morning. We might go to StoneHeaven in the afternoon depending on the weather. Initially, we thought of going to a strawberry farm nearby but one of their friends changed their mind because they have something else to do. Well, what can we do when we are just followers? Another one and a half day we will be back to Basingstoke. We did not buy many things because there is nothing to buy actually; only some souvenirs like fridge magnets. However, I still need to buy some shortbread for my colleagues because I have not seen them for a week and they should all know that I am in Scotland.
We are back to Aberdeen now. My blog real ranks has dropped to 5000s as expected. I hardly had the time to update my blog while I was away. Most of the time, we would reach our hotel or guest house in the middle of the night and we were all tired and exhausted. And the next day in the morning, we had to get up and continue our journey. We had been to John O’ Groats, Orkney, Loch Ness, Glasgow, Edinburgh Castle and some other place which I will definitely blog about it after I get back to Basingstoke. Right now, I am using my friend’s laptop, have to be fast and give it back to her. Oh, by the way, we took lots and lots of pictures and at the end of the day, our cameras will normally be low on battery.

It is Tuesday. Mee and I will soon be off to Scotland. As always, I hope that I will be able to update my blog daily and with pictures as well if I have to facilities to do so. My feeling is just normal at the moment. We have not finished packing the luggage yet. Anyhow, we must get it done tonight.
I have managed to resolve the problems that I was facing yesterday regarding Initial D project. However, I have decided to change the format again because it is not suitable and hard to implement. Anyway, I will stop it now and enjoy my holiday first.
Our landlord just came and we chat a lot. He seemed to be in a good mood. Mee and I too, because we are going to Scotland. Not a big deal though but it is holiday time. As for now, we have a new housemate. Not really new but she is one of our housemate’s wife who has just finished her study in Cardiff. Well, our landlord should have told us that she is going to move in instead of having us riddling.
It is Monday and quite frustrating. I started my work on Initial D project but I just could not get some of the code done. Hopefully, tomorrow will be better.
Yesterday was very hot. Mee and I went to Lidl but ended up buying only a lettuce. Well, we took it as going for a stroll and exercise since the weather was good.
The house we live in was warned for not paying TV license and will be inspected on and off to see whether anyone is watching TV. Well, Mee and I cannot remember how many times we have switched on the TV since we moved in last year. We never stay in the living room for more than 1 minute.
I have a sudden inspiration and I have designed a new framework of my sub-blog Initial D website, on a piece of paper. I will soon work on it and hopefully, my Initial D project will make a comeback soon. Stay tuned, as always.

Picked from Metro newspaper today, is this the clumsiest dog in Britain? Well, this 12-year-old dog has had nine operations and sometimes, firefighters have been called in to free him after getting trapped. According to the vet, this dog suffers from a canine form of Alzheimer’s disease.

The weather is good today. I have been busy printing some labels for one of my colleagues and doing some SQL thing as well. In the meantime, I have also finished an opportunity which is reserved for me. So fast, it is Thursday already. I cannot wait for the weekend to come and also my holiday!!! By the way, I am also worried that I could not update my blog frequently. Anyway, it is rest time for me.
I will be testing a method to speed up my P990i posted by some forum buddies. Well, it seems to work for some users, erm … all users I think. I have not heard of anyone saying that it does not speed up P990i at all. In addition, I have been looking for some themes for P990i and PSP so that I could test them out this weekend. It seems like my weekend is packed with tasks.
Yesterday, Mee did not sleep well because the housemates were quite noisy at the kitchen. At 2300, the husband and wife took turn to cook instant noodle; not sure it was for their supper but why couldn’t they cook together? Then another housemate just kept getting in and out of the house. Surely no one would do that in the middle of the night. Well, what can we do when our housemates are not understanding enough?
I have been fiddling around with my blog coding again because it does not display some of the information correctly. It is quite irritating because one of my posts does not get approved because of the error whereas my previous posts were approved and paid without any error. Anyway, I managed to fix it now and resubmit again. Hopefully, it will get approved soon. Sometimes, I just think that I have quite a number of redundant codes in my CSS and html. I will have to get rid of them and that might help to reduce the loading time to my blog.
Today is windy and not a bit of sunshine. One of the car park spaces has been converted into a hall with a large marquee being setup for presentation ceremonies and student’s party. The already limited parking spaces have caused more problems to those who drive where they have to park at the other side of the building and I think it definitely causes some traffic jam at the entrance.
