It's that time again and I am on holiday.
We left it late this time and so it became a bit of job to find a holiday cottage but in the end after a long search we did find somewhere to go.
We ended up with a a holiday house in Saltash which is somewhere I have never been before.
So far it's been good and today we did a walk of about in total nine miles walking part of the south coast path from Looe it did rain at one stage but at the end of day it turned warm and sunny and I managed to get sunburned.

L and her life
L is a friend at work who I have known for a long time, since 2005 to be exact.
In fact she only told me a short while ago, that her marriage of 12 years appears to her to be over due to the way her husband has been treating her at home.
I must admit that I was very surprised that she being treated so badly.
Any way the main point of this blog was to say that you never know what is going to happen in your life.
This certainly appears to be the case with L as she said as much in that she never expect to find her self in the position that she finds herself in.
The good news appears to be that she appears to have meet again someone from her past and that the signs are good that there may be something there.
So only time will tell if that is the case.

L and her life 2
So I spoke about L and her marriage to M it would appear that on her birthday 2 years ago not only did he completely forget it not even a card or a present or even acknowledge that it was L's birthday but did not even acknowledge that he had done something that upset her.
So you can imagine how L felt this year when he did exactly the same thing again, and has made not attempt to put things right in his marriage.
It would appear that M has changed in some way to such an extent that he no longer wants to be with L
It appears from what L has said that they are more like bother and sister than a couple in that they lead separate lives inside the house.
By that they do not cook for each other and live in different parts of the house and also have separate bedrooms.
So I suppose that after two years of this L has decided that for all intense and purposes that their marriage is over and that the only reason that they are still in the same house is because of financial reasons more than anything else.
So a couple of weeks ago L was at the wedding of her brother, I think she was glad that her brother was finally getting married as he is in his 40's.
So the last thing that L expected to happen was to bump into and only flame of hers from over twenty years ago.
Now P was someone that she was girlfriend to for about eight years, and because he would not commit all those years ago L broke off the relationship even though L has admitted that she loved him very much.
So at the wedding L meets P and the first thing he does is give her a kiss and a cuddle. now L has admitted that the cuddle had the very strange effect of making her heart beat a bit faster and a funny feeling in her stomach.
They managed only to talk for a short time at the wedding but it's obvious to all there that there is a spark between them, to make things more interesting they both are free to have a realonship, the thing is will they?

Memory
What happens to memories ?
Take for instance L and her first love that she was with for eight years what happened to all those memories when she met and married M?
And now that her marriage appears to have failed what happens to all the years of marriage memories?
I don't know
How does someone cope with and deal with all those different memories and emotions ?
I have been lucky and have had what to some is the rare event and that is a long relationship with the same person for some 28 years so I have no way of knowing how one deals with having several major relationships.
I do know what I have gone through and also what L has gone through are not rare, how can it be when there are more than six billion people in the world, in fact what has happened to me and also to L must have been repeated millions of times, so somewhere on this planet there must be someone who could tell me how one copes with all these memories.
I have not asked L as I don't want to upset her more than she is already upset with what is going on in her life at this time.

Music
I find it amazing that if I don't listen to some music at some point in the day I feel as if something is missing from my day?
Why is this?

L and now
So L has met her ex from over twenty years ago both her and P are no longer the people they were.
L has had 3 children who are in their early twenties and has been married some 12 years
P has never married or had children
So how much do they have in common?
Is the common ground they share their lives before they went their separate ways?
I don't know the answer to this question it's one that I would like to put to L and P if I ever meet him to ask, as I suspect that the answer from L and P will not be the same answer.

Marriage?
You have seen on my blog the story of L and P and how they have meet up again after some twenty years.
One. Thing I did ask L the other day is that if she got divorced from M would she marry P?
Her answer was and she admitted that this was something that P had already asked her was yes she would marry again.
I suppose that such an answer should not be a surprise as she was clearly very much taken with P when she was younger and only if he had been able to commit then she would have married him.
The question as to weather the marriage would have lasted is something that can never be known, it's possible that some other reason exists as to why P and L never got married when they were younger.
As L has said thing do happen for a reason what ever that reason might be.
As an outsider to all this I feel as if sometimes I am watching a film or a biography and that what I am seeing is all just a story, the only thing being that this is a story that involves real people and lots of emotions, and some of the things that are going to happen in the next few months are going to cause a lot of hurt and pain for lots of people, and from what I can see it's going to happen and there is nothing anyone can do to stop it happening.
I know that its going on with other people all over the world, but I don't know them do I?
So even though I am on the side lines it's not going to be nice seeing someone you know get hurt and know that there is nothing you can do to stop it from starting.

Swords
Today I had the chance to hold a 1.5 meter long 6 kilos in weight sword, I must admit that it was a very strange thing to hold and that I would not like to have to have had to use it in real life as it's such a large item that you are supposed to use to kill some one with.
If you can not guess I was visiting a national trust property today that goes back to the Tudor period and so it goes without saying that they would have some old swords that are only 300 or 400 hundred years old that once you have put gloves on you can handle while under supervision.
It's something that I am glad that I did and would do again, as to me it felt that I had a chance to touch a bit of history.

Wet
So it's august so it should be nice and warm with blue skies, so what do we get here in Cornwall?
Yes rain and dull grey skies, I suppose that it should not be surprise as after all we are in the UK and should expect nothing less.

Changes
We the renewal has come up for the web host company that I use. Now the current company are based in America and have provide an okay service apart from two things.
The first is that there speed of response to a problem always take 6 or more hours, which is just far to long.
The second
Problem is that the hosting was too slow with my main website taking just far to long to appear and to change pages and before you say it's my website the software that drives that runs some very large website else where and has no problems with pages appearing in 1 or 2 seconds.
So I have a new web host which is also now in the UK and I have already tried out there support and I have to say a response within 10 minutes every time I have used it so far has been great.
The site sped is much much quicker than the old host.
The only problem I now have is transferring all the contents form the old host to the new.
The size of the problem is 7 gigabytes which looks like it's going to take for ever to move around.
So add to the fun I have already perhaps foolishly requested that the DNS name servers point to my new host.
So knowing my luck I could end up with blank screens.
And I did this knowing that I am on leave from tonight for a week!
Yeah I know, don't say it as I already have.....

Love
The friend that I spoke about in an early blog has got love real bad infect I would say that they look at least 10 years younger than a couple of weeks ago, so it's amazing what falling in love can do.
I think I heard an expression love will find a way and for this person that certainly appears to be the case.

Blogs
Just been reading or rather scrolling on blogger through the different blogs that are on there.
The thing that I found sad was that so many of the blogs appear to have been started with say 10 or so entries after that there are no more entries, it appears that like podcasts you also get blog fade.
I suppose that a lot of these blogs were started in the rush of let's try this new hip thing and that some time after the reality of how much work it can be causes the user to just drift off doing the blog, I suspect that it is this or some thing like it that causes fade.

Reading
Not done any book reading for a while now, due to the fact that I have just not felt up to it, what with the weather and work...
The other fact is that there are no books out there at this time that I want to read at this time, or and this is more the case can afford to buy, by that I mean there are several books that I want to read but they are all in hard back at this time so i shall have to wait for them to come out in paperback.

White space
So with all this White space awaiting for some one to put some letters on it it can get a bit daunting as to what to do next or write next.
As I can write about anything as long as I don't break any laws.

Audio twitter
Audio twitter good or bad?
I have not got a clue how it would work, perhaps you are only allowed 255 seconds of record time?
Just another silly thought.

Not much blogging
Have not done much blogging here compared to what I have done in the recent past, mainly as I had nothing that I wanted to say and also as it's been so hot and work has been very intense with the result that the last thing that I wanted to see was yet another computer screen.
