My life

I recently read a piece about diaries and the like and one thing which struck me is the down-beat nature of a journal. As I read back through my old stuff, I think: I don't even like this person! A lot of self-help books say that you should focus on the positive things in your life, and actually count your blessings. Now this might sound a little Polly Anna but if you read back through your stuff, would you actually focus on being down on everything? So what have I to be cheerful about? Well my...

The Village My village: Tinwell, even has a page on Facebook! http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Tinwell/35123676231 Most of it is the usual pointless rubbish, but take a look at the old photos. Our house is not there but it's to the left of the village green. This is a symbol of how advanced they are, and how far back we are on this site. Although we get few pressures here I must admit. My point is, that we are getting left behind. It's all about traffic, and I wonder if anyone really makes any... Sign in to see full entry.

After my usual trawl of the net and the pages that promise easy money, I realize that this site is the one place you can post up anything and feel proud of it. Some of the other sites are so professional( at least for the people making thousands) that you don't stand a chance. My one regret is that we have no links to Facebook, as some of us would make big money. And surely so would the Blogit team? But maybe they have their own reasons not for linking. You cannot place a link on the more... Sign in to see full entry.

One of my more unhealthy obsessions is the ability to send a message back in time to myself. And this message can be nothing else other than the winning numbers. But of course what is equally important, is the receiving of that message in the present. I say unhealthy, because I have become more than obsessed with it of late. Not that I want to stand on the line between believe or ridicule, but I think it's healthy to reflect on it from time to time. The truth is, that crazy believes are all I've...

So far the web design is going well. I'm getting back in the swing and feel confident I shall be up to speed as far as the new twists in the field are concerned. Mainly because there are none, other than people putting stupid videos on their sites to make it look like they are in the swim with the real world. It's just a gimmick and can add to the confusion more than helping. Although I have seen some really interesting vid's attached to people's sites and they can save you a lot of time looking...

After spending 2 days at trying to get my old web skills back I have finally got to a point I'm happy with. Take a look at this site: http://writerswanted.tinwellbooks.co.uk/ Not much but it took me a whole day just to get this damn thing up to speed. I've always wanted to keep my main site www.tinwellbooks.co.uk as a test site, so I can have hundreds of subdomains coming off it. Once I get the thing together I can start selling the things. But I'm a long way off PHP and CSS. My point is that... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm quite cheered by the thought of people making money with web sites, or site flipping. There are people who seem to be making a living from this stuff, and even a modest amount would do me. The irony is that if I had kept up a steady flow of traffic to Tinwellbooks.co.uk it would have sold for thousands now. Selling articles and hopping for a dollar a year is just wearing me down to the point of boredom. I make more money here than in all those sites put to getter. But having your own site...

If I had stuck to my original plan I would have got 3 numbers with the pendulum. So why did I change it? Because corals messed the web site up so much Ii lost faith in the way they were showing the Irish Lotto. They began showing 3 games for the same which threw me. So I was never sure if I was looking for the right game. But would you believe it, 17 and 44 came up like long lost friends! I only had to get the 5-10 numbers, and my own pendulum workings told me it would come up. But being a... Sign in to see full entry.

My work with the Pendulum is going really well. So far I can pick the blocks of numbers: 1-5; 6-10, and backed up with the most common numbers: 17, 25, 39 and 44 we stand a good chance of always getting at least 2 numbers. This would bring in a fortune, but for a 1 pound stake(or a couple of $) I could turn over 5. If we could get 3 numbers it would it would bring in more than Ebay ever did. And 4 would mean I could give up work. What I need to do now, is to narrow it down to 1 or 2 numbers. But... Sign in to see full entry.

With other money making things going on in my life now, I find myself being drawn back to some of the old things which have always stood by me in times of need. And the best of these is writing. When I say money making, I mean some of my gambling ideas, and for that I need a plan over time. I will have to do a little every day, but it does leave me a lot of time for thinking. Books and Ebay are all very well, but they won't make any money, and even though I don't intend giving up on them, I... Sign in to see full entry.
