Hi guys, here's my latest post.
SINCE MY LAST POST
My session at Remploy are going well, I am currently on the second of eight modules. This deals with Stress and Anxiety and how to deal with. It is opening up a lot of issues from my past and issues I wasn't even aware of. Last Tuesday, we talked about how stress has affected me in my life, how stress feels and how it manifests itself. Today, we looked at coping strategies and used the Prospective scale on various situations, my homework for this week is looking at four people with stressful situations and thinking how they might better deal with their particular situations.
A day earlier, we went to the Bankside Gallery, it was the last of their current exhibition. But it doesn't matter who the artists are or what they've come up with, we are always impressed with what they come up with.
We also visited Southwark Cathedral twice recently. Their gift shop has always something we might need or have something we think might make a good present for somebody.
DEALING WITH THE UNEXPECTED
Yesterday, Claudia and I went to the Royal Festival Hall to view a photography exhibition that we have gone every year since we first met in 2003. We were really looking forward to it and after having lunch at EAT and looking in Foyles, we went to the RFH and the exhibition. To our confidence sapping shock, A London University was holding it's graduation photography session there, seeing all the graduates, their parents, family and friends made viewing the exhibition a little uneasy. We were impressed by the standard of the photography and the powerfulness of the photographs, it was just a shame that we had all those other people to deal with.
FINALLY
Just a quick thanks to Carol Ali for her comments. She's a recent friend I've made on Facebook. Everyone's comments are welcomed.
Until next time,
Bye for now,
Chris

MY FORTNIGHT plus BONFIRE NIGHT
Hi guys, here's my post
MY FORTNIGHT
Monday, Tate Britain, Apocalypse by John Martin. Brilliant.
Tuesday, Food Shopping
Wednesday, Remploy, NAS Module 1, final session, Vocational Module, homework, what jobs am I suited.
Thursday, Church in the Afternoon.
Friday, visited Claudia's parents in Dagenham, Essex, weather not good for finishing the shed we started on, a fortnight ago. Had a relaxing day.
Saturday, Bonfire Night, SEE BELOW
Sunday, Church in the Morning, Lunch and Homework completion at my mum's
Monday, a visit to Romford in Essex, to buy bits with Claudia for our craft business.
Tuesday, Remploy, NAS Module 2, Session 1. Stress and Anxiety, homework this week, how stress affects me physically.
Wednesday, JobCentre, not a good time, the DEAs were away, the person I was supposed to see wasn't there and I nearly lost my signing in book.
Thursday, Church in the Afternoon.
Friday was Armistice Day, I went to see Tower Bridge raised, then we went to have lunch and go shopping, then watched a DVD called New York, I Love You. A collection of different love stories in the Big Apple.
Yesterday, we saw a couple of musical films on BBC TWO, Carefree with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers and Singing In The Rain with Gene Kelly.
Today, I went to church for Rememberance Sunday
BONFIRE NIGHT
November 5th is Bonfire Night, when I was a kid, I loved fireworks, the colours, the noise, the general thrill of it. In my teens, I still liked it. But in my 20s, my views and feeling changed, all because of nearly being at the wrong end of a firework thrown by a idiot. I don't know why that some NTs think it's fun to throw fireworks. But if you're near to one, when it goes off, then it affects you. Since that time, this time of year, Halloween and Bonfire Night, is stay indoors occasions. This year, however, was quite scary. There was a organised display in Southwark Park, near where Claud and I live in Bermondsey. But some wallies in the flats where we live, started setting off fireworks, under the balcony walkways. We dreaded to think what might have happened had anyone been walking on the balcony walkways when those idiots set off those fireworks.
I'll be back soon with some more
'Til then
Bye for now
