Friday 12/02/2010. Today is my wife Joy's birthday time was when we would go out and celebrate that but we are now passed the stage where birthdays are celebrated. I have got her a cheapo digital camera and will do my best to get her conversant with it's use. I would love her to keep an ongoing record of what she achieves in the garden, fingers crossed and we shall see. At lunch-time I went into Middlesbrough to meet up with an old mate of mine from my part time work with the Debenhams Department Store over the Christmas/New Year period of 2008/09. I worked with Keith (Hutcheson) in the warehouse department and we got on very well and he borrowed a book of mime - Crush the Cell by Michael Sheehan the guy who ran the New York counter terrorist operation following 9/11 - we share an interest in these things. Sheehans platform is that we need to get clever by infiltration of terrorist groups and understanding them rather than indulging in wholesale eradication of civil liberties etc., he makes a good case too.
Anyway we had an hour or so in Lloyds Bar in Middlesbrough chewing the cud and discussing the people at Debenhams and life in general. It was good to see Keith again and just chill out a bit. As can be seen in my picture, we are having a nice time.
