A bit of good news today. I went for my weekly weigh-in and found I’d lost 2 pounds. I’m now 18st 6lbs (again), which is 117.1kg and the lightest I’ve been (by a whole 0.3kg) since I started my weight loss program. I’m still a couple of kgs off where I’d like to be but I’ve made some progress at least. Read the rest of this entry »
A bit of a jump forward from the previous instalment.
WHITE NOISE
I go to see Ray because he calls and asks me to meet him. He says he’s had a meeting with the record company and they want to call the album White Noise, which I tell him I like.

Apologies for not blogging for the last few days. Rest assured I haven’t lost interest. I’ve been busy with, you know, life and stuff.
Last week I found I’d gained two pounds, which after the excesses of Oktoberfest (did I mention I’d been to Oktoberfest?) was actually not a bad result.
Erm, that’s it really. Just a quick blog to say I’m still here and I’ll post a bit more of Happy Ending this week. This time I promise I will.
Also, if anyone knows how to change or get rid of the grey box with a 5 in it in the top right hand corner of the blog, please let me know as it’s driving me crazy.
P.S. today’s blog title is a shameless rip off of David Ford’s A Short Song of Apology, in case you wondered.

The very next snippet of Happy Ending, following on directly from this bit.
HOW THINGS WORK
Ray calls me at ten thirty the next morning, which is first thing for him.
“Jack.”
“Ray.”

Last week I decided to move my weigh-in day from Monday to Friday. There was some theory attached but to be honest it doesn’t stand up to much scrutiny. So on Friday I weighed myself and had lost another 2lbs since Monday. Overall I was down 6lbs, and had lost 8lbs in eleven days without resorting to drastic tactics (i.e. exercise).
