Disbeliefs

Ok

So this Cottage is really getting to me now.
Everywhere I look there is an unfinished Job to be done. Today I have managed to tile the Kitchen floor excluding edges as I found the tile cutter I have isn’t big enough can you believe ?My neighbour will lend me his cutter but cant deliver it until tomorrow when obviously its going to rain and rain and rain just because I need to be outside baaa.

So anyhow all was going quite well when I realised that the door now wont open (woops) so I take the door off take it out into the sun an wrestle with it to cut the bottom off, I wont deny that it was hard work. I get back indoors (warm) and just as I have balanced it the dogs start to bark and can you believe it the Hire car company has finally arrived 3 days late to collect the car.

So in just the spate of one afternoon I find my self in disbelief of the things that can go wrong. (and as I just typed the latter the narrator on TV said just the same. weird)

In total I have yet another unfinished job waiting for my attention. Question is - Will Mike come round with the cutter will I have enough tiles to finish will the tiles actually stick to the floor?

What am I reading?

For those of you that were in raptures after reading Dan Browns series - then this is the next step up Paul Sussman with 'The Last Secret of the Temple'.

Paul's two great passions have always been writing and archaeology. He fulfils the former by working as a freelance journalist and the latter by spending two months of each year excavating in Egypt. He is thirty-five and lives in London with his wife.

Its hard going but makes me think harder about the plight of the Palestinians and the need of the Israeli’s. This conflict as we so politely put it, is almost as old as time itself, the reason as to why this started has been lost and now it seems its just about power the oppressed become the oppressors and the world doesn’t really know what to do.

This book looks at both sides of the coin educational and hard going at times but underneath the geeky politics and emotions is a mystery I am yet to unfold. I have become familiar with the characters blood, sweat and tears of their every day lives, (mind you I should, I have tried to finish this book 3 times so I am not being parted from it now!)

Finally I have finished this gripping story! I know more about the power of faiths and what drives them, those that have tried to defile it and those that have given their lives as protectors. With every turn of the page history unfolds itself. Myth and adventures reunite the unexpected.

Now I need an easier read!
