Getting back to my old form!

The two programmes I did on community radio (Phoenix FM 89.5) went well and we now await another four weeks of test transmissions later in the year before the decision will be made whether we - or another aspirant radio station - get the licence for that particular frequency.

Slowly but surely I am finding it more difficult to find enough hours in the day to do all the things I want to. Dialysis is now three times a week (a total of 14 hours), but at least it is now at the local hospital instead of in Melbourne, which added an additional 8 hours of travel time.

Apart from my regular 6 - 8 hours a day sitting at my computer I have now resumed playing darts one night each week, as well as trying to finish my life story for submission to a publisher. This has become a "must do" project, bearing in mind my close call with extinction last year... I have to get the book finished before I get my final call "up yonder" (or "down below").

I am also trying to find the time to write a few articles for one of the local newspapers... one in particular about the singles group (Bendigo Social Singles) I started five years ago. We are about to celebrate our fifth anniversary and need more men to assist in balancing the sexes. At present we are averaging six women to each man at our regular dinner meetings.

Yet, in those five years, I have not had one date with any of the ladies (sob!)... all because I think I have been spoilt in the past by my three wives (on second thoughts maybe they were spoilt by me)!
