Sunday at Home

Sunday, 4 December, 2011
As usual got up early, had my breakfast of bread adn coffee. Started my Blogspot account and wrote the previous day happenings.
Felt like not going out, as the day was a bit dark and gloomy.
Finished reading the book, KIRBY: The life and the loves, a novel by Shaari Isa.
The author was a student at the first Malayan Teachers training college in Kirby, near Liverpool. The novel intersperes romantic fiction with factual historical account of teacher trainees in Kirby.
I have friends and teachers who were at Kirby. Shaari I suspect was in the second batch basing on the the information during the duration of the particular batch of students.
I found it interesting, romantic and did give a flavour of life in the fifties. Learn about the college song, The Golden Chersonese and it on youtube. The tune I loved was 'Spring in Portugal'.
Lunch we had crab curry which I had bought the previous day at Manchester.

The children do not want to talk to me. They do not approach me for anything.
If they want anything, they would just have to ask.
I suspect that they have strong resentment against me.
Today's example when I ask my second son whether he could set up the anti virus for my new lap, he said no and said that he will not help me.
I asked my eldest and third sons whether they could me, they replied in the negative.
The wife told me that the eldest lad had got a place to do his teaching qualification at York University and to inform me, but he still has not done so.
He has not communicate to me to what he intends to do. I can see his frustration at not being employed.
He will be 23 years in August.. he has made a good choice for the course.
The second lad had I came to know his school concert. I was not told about. it
I did tell the wife that if the children refuse to tell me any, it is their choice.
Frankly I do not want to have sleepless about the failing to communicate with me.
I will elaborate this blog in the not to distant future
