Well, being a bit of a technophobe, even though I work in IT, I have no idea how to accomplish the task I have set myself. Sometime in the future, I would like to make my blog, use RSS. I have myself an RSS reader, and have subscribed to various sites, and this works great. I would like to open this feature up to my readership, such that you can subscribe to my RSS feeds, but have no idea whats required, or how to do it. I have reviewed a couple of sites around this topic, and boy I just get so confused.
Anybody have any ideas or point me at some links that explain this in plain simple noddy English !

A Lots Happened Recently
Well folks, its been a while since I posted, but I have been extremely busy with work, preparing for visitors from abroad and preparing to run a seminar for 50 of our customers, so you can guess its been a bit hectic. We ran the seminar last Thursday, and had a full house. I arrived home at 10:30pm Thursday evening, and slept like a log, then back to work Friday, and when I returned home again, I was asleep all evening after dinner.
I have also subscribed to a search engine to find the cheapest fuel in my location. This is really good and has already saved many pounds as I do approx 35,000 miles a year, the savings will soon stack up. If you want the cheapest fuel, then go to http://www.petrolprices.com/ or locate the logo at the bottom of my blog page.
Also our house has been on the market now for three weeks, and we have had one viewing and one that failed to turn up. I think we wont be using this agent again, and will renew our contract with somebody else.
This coming weekend we are off to Amsterdam for a long weekend. Here 'she who must be obeyed' will be experiencing one of Hollands notorious food stuffs, and we will both be very 'happy' for the evening. I havent had much of a chance to dress up properly recently, but will be spending the whole of our long weekend away as Michelle. I cant wait til Friday evening to do my nails etc... and pack our case. I will report back when we return, and may even post a few pictures for you all.

Laser Treatment Update
Just a short update on my laser treatment. I have been going now for some months as you may recall. The treatment has 6 week breaks unless you catch the sun, then you have to wait a bit longer, so during the summer I had to extend the period between treatments. Anyway, its going really well. I have almost completed my under arm treatment. Underarm hair is almost totally gone, so far I have only found 1 very fine hair. The girls at the clinic tell me I should expect some fine hair, and that I can have 'maintenance' treatments whenever needed, but it would be easier to tweeze them out. I started having my nipples done as well since they were good and thick hair, and they have run-a-way and hidden as well so I am almost hair free on the chest as well. Luckily I wasnt particularly hairy in the first place.
Is it painful? well the first couple of times, I had to have them stop 3 times on each armpit, but these are supposed to be the most sensitive part of the body, the nipples I could accept the whole treatment the first time. Now, since the thick hair has deminished, I can accept the whole treatment under arm with no stopping. I read that it feels like somebody pinging an elastic band on your body, and I think thats the best description really. They apply Aloe Vera afterwards to help reduce the heat. I usually have my treatment in the morning between 9 and 10, then by lunchtime the heat and pain has pretty much gone. By evening, I have no after affects at all. If you dislike body hair as much as I do, perhaps you should
consider it. I can thoroughly recommend bodilight in Milton Keynes, I have turned up in semi girl mode everytime, all the clothes I've worn are womens clothes, but ususally tight jeans and pretty tops. They dont bat an eyelid, they are used to treating transexuals so they tell me, so to have a TV in the premises is not
big deal. I love being there, as I can be the real me in public.

Our House For Sale
So we've put our house on the market, and here it is, if anybody's genuinely interested, get in touch at graham.harper@btconnect.com
Our House
Its Been A While - House for Sale
Well folks, its been a busy couple of weeks, We had a few days off, and spent the weekend striping and repainting the garage door, I broke many nails and totally ruined my nail varnish. Then we spent the next 2 days having a massive throw out time, we binned loads of old stuff, and stuff we've never used, and took it all down the rubbish dump. Yes, we did as much recycling as possible. Also sorted some clothes and other odds and ends, and deposited them at the cancer research shop. Then after three hard days work, we treated ourselves to watching 'Memoirs of a Geisha'. A very moving film, I got a but weepy, but I think it was more because the star of the show ages throughout the film from about 6 years old to probably mid 20's. In her earliest form, she was the spitting image of my eldest daughter when she was 6. It was terribly spooky.
We also had a couple of estate agents in to value our little abode, and then we went and looked at a very large house, that is within our price range, and only because its in quite a bad state of repair. We both said the house is just ideal from room sizes and the number and location of rooms, its just we would have to spend a good few days clearing up the grime of the previous occupiers before we could start to live in a Couple of rooms. Then I am guessing it would take at least 6 months to decorate the place to make it more homely. There is some superficial exterior work that needs to be done, but nothing I couldn't get organized (I don't do heights, so somebody else can so that).
We also went to a new restaurant in Northampton called Occo on Derngate. A very nice Moroccan and Lebanese restaurant. We didn't really now what to have, so fortunately, they provide an 'experience dinner' where you get lots of samples of the food, it was absolutely great.
