Jazzy D's Soul Notes

More productive than even I expected. Finished my last visit in Sittigbiurne again, which by my calculations makes six in all and a healthy £86 earned when I get paid from all the various companies.

I am waiting to get back home from the Bourne to sleepy Faversham but the barriers are down at the station and the rozzers have not gone yet so I guess it will be after nine that I can catch a train home. Not paying any more fucking money today after a discovery ticket.

I am typing this in a McDonalds which is not too far from the station. Same area as my last covert shop in fact.

At least I finished all my reports. This is because both ESA Retail and IPSOS has apps which makes the work available on the go so easy. So when I get home I can relax, put my feet up, turn on the hi-fi, get the pipe, smoke and relax to some music.

From my covert shop in Maidstone, I did buy this DVD -



It was part of my three quid spend at the supermarket that is owned now by Walmart.

I hope to watch it over the weekend.

Today I popped back to Past Sentence in Faversham to offload more unwanted books. Well, all the books I buy are wanted and looked after, but sometimes you just have to cull! Anyway, with the load I took yesterday and those I brought over today I made a respectable £17.

I asked the lady who runs the shop with her husband about her mum. She said she is fine after the operation. They had to remove a small piece form her lung. I did not enquire further about it but said that I wished her well and that she recovers quickly.

I am on my way to Ashford to do a couple of jewellery shop visits. I left it a bit late and will be catching the three o'clock bus to do them. I did some more packing this morning ,and now that I am on top of it, just got a box and a half to fill; Place is looking really bare now except for the boxes.

So meanwhile I am having a nifty pint in the Leading Light pub.

Last night a watched a stunningly wonderful Anime film “Ghost In The Shell 2 : Innocnece” produced by the same company that gave us “Spirited away” an d “Howl;s Moving Cas

It might have been windy but we had blue skies in Tenterden today.



These are the ten books found at just over a quid each.




This is the oldest paperback from 1962.




I also found tow DVD's - Inception , and Being John Malkovich - which i have watched already. I remember this being a weird film amd it still is - a classic by Sike Jonze.

Picked up a few DVD's dead cheap today,at twenty five pence each from a local charity tore -

Super 8
The Adventures of Tin Tin
Thor( a triple DVD/Blu Ray/Digital copy version)
The Draughtman's Contract.




I have already watched Super 8- i forgot how thrilling an adventure that was.

I have also received in the post the other Grindhouse movie Death Proof.




I shall watching that one next.

So these are the goodies i bought today from the charity shop visits.

DVD's

Magnolia
Immortals

Books

It has been another day of just chilling out and relaxing =in which i listened to the radio,read copiously and listens to some music on CD,as well as watching the DVD "Robot Chicken Star Wars II".



Really really funny. Seth Green and company have made a corker! And yes, it is that Seth whom was Willow's boyfriend in the Buffy TV series.

So after awhile,having eaten some pizza,i decide to go out somewhere to use the net but Sittingbourne Spoons' is too crowded tonight so i went to Faversham there to surf the net at their Spoons pub. Hence here i am blogging.

A fairly productive day - three visits today, two in Canterbury and one in Maidstone. A charity,a restaurant and a supermarket. At the charity shop i bought books, had a Belgian meal with beer, and finally two cheap DVD's from the supermarket.

The most enjoyable part was the meal. My starter was lambs heart in a red wine sauce with mashed potato. The main was chicken served in a balsamic and rosemary honey glaze also with mashed spud.Both were delicious and made a very filling meal for just a tenner!




Details of the books and DVD's later. 

The rest of the day has been spent listening to the radio, or reading ,or listening to music. I am thinking of watching the Beasts film tonight and if not it will be back to watching more DVD's of Babylon 5 from season 4.

There are two other films i want to see - Arrival , and A Street Cat  Named Bob Film.




A Street Cat Named Bob  movie trailer

Sometimes i really do not know what to put in a blog but that writer's block kind of reaction doesn't happen often . It did yesterday though.

Anyway after a surprisingly fine sunny bank holiday Monday today the weather notched a step up to become even sunnier with temps rising to 27 degrees C. I popped over to Faversham to sell some paperbacks gacked from the left out books from outside a charity shop that is having a refit in Tunbridge Wells the other day. They were in a box with "take for free" on it, and i sold them for three quid - the rest i kept - i took eight books and sold four.

That was the highlight of the day. I spent a couple of hours sunbathing and watched the Steve Jobs biopic DVD. Can i say , what a control freak and dick he is - well that is my opinion of him ,genius or not. I also felt sorry to Steve Wozniak being belittled by Jobs. Fascinating film though.

In the film towards the end, John Sculley (former Apple CEO) arrives in secret at the launch of the iMac and the two make amends. Jobs and Sculley discuss Jobs' life as an adopted child, and Jobs admits that his need for control stems from his feelings of powerlessness in being given up. At the behest of Hoffman, Jobs apologizes to Lisa for his mistakes, admitting that he is "poorly made". Lisa watches her father take the stage to introduce the iMac.



I also finished the whole eight seasons of Charmed again, Think i will leave it for awhile,I am steadily going through Season 10 of Supernatural and so far it's a blast.

Hopefully tomorrow  i will have a remittance from React Surveys as it is the last day of the month. Can it be September so soon?

Had a lie-in this morning - it was unintentional - and i suppose i needed the sleep.

A box of DVD's arrived in the post from my brother this morning. So there will be some that will drag me away from Charmed lol. Hitchcock's Vertigo is one of them, as well as The Woman In Black and the Steve Jobs biopic.

This will keep me busy over the weekend.
