Final day of my break

Didn’t want to go back home today, I came over all shy and stupid about asking Nick (yes, another one but this one was Jermaine’s carer for a few hours) to go out on a date, totally dumb and really unlike me!

As I left, Steve called me. I have not met him as yet but he was as horny as hell and wanted to do phone sex, it killed a few minutes but I was in the car at the time so did nothing for me sadly!

Visited Danny and Dan over at Tony’s place, both are fine. As usual Danny forgot he had invited me over for lunch so I politely mentioned I said I would pop into Robin’s which I did and he did me some lunch over there.

There is news about Tony but I am not going to get my hopes up until I am sure it is good news.

Matt has been a star and talked to Nick whilst I was out and given him my email address and he left his behind and I got all excited and silly and managed to speak to him later on in the day and we arranged a date.

Of course, I have no idea where this is going. We may find we have nothing in common and cannot stand each other but we have to try at least.

Have also been speaking to Pete, a really, really nice guy and he has agreed to visit tomorrow. It is just so nice for a guy to visit here the first time we meet knowing there will be kids here, makes a very pleasant change.

Budget Day

So, we have the ‘Let’s buy a whole host of gullible voters day’ with George Osborne. No doubt we’ll be told how employment is rising, how the deficit is falling, how we’re all so much better off now than we were (compared to what?). We’ll be told that there are still tough times ahead but that only a Conservative government can steer us through them. It will be pointed out how inflation remains low, how not raising duty on fuel has helped everyone as is seen by the current lower prices at the pumps (it’s going up again George). In short, I should listen to this budget later and decide to vote Conservative in May but, I won’t. Labour certainly did nothing to avoid the mess the country got in but they didn’t cause it. They made the mistake of trying to be too conservative, allowing high finance the freedom to cause a catastrophic cock up for which they took zero responsibility. They made the mistake of allowing Gordon Brown to take the job of Prime Minister, one for which he is totally...

Not a good day

Today is a very emotional one for me. I have no idea why that would be the case but apparently it is. For a day that had nothing pre-arranged this one has turned out quite busy. First, I agreed to take Matt for breakfast though I wasn't really hungry. He was being quite argumentative in the morning about some thing or other, I don't recall what exactly but some matter of politics where he was going to argue the toss whilst knowing little or nothing about it. But, even so, I was quite upbeat as Jermaine had gone to school on time ... no, scrub that, i was upbeat until I yet again had to tell Zoey to get her arse out of her room, downstairs, do her chores and get to school, that is when this day started to go downward. I spent way too much money on a new doorbell, true, we needed one but not one that cost nearly £50! This too has not helped. I went to see a garage that can fit parking sensors to my car, all well and good but they needed me to supply paint to match the circles up ...

Understanding the British

As a nation we are a funny lot. We get through the worries of life with humour. Not always good taste humour and the words 'too soon' are often mentioned! Now, this is not unique to us, many other countries adopt humour to get them through. I am going to show some ideas of humour here, don't shoot me, we're just musing this topic. Moment of silence for the people who agreed to live with shitty roommates because they "wouldn't be spending much time at home anyway" There is going to be a lot of pressure over the next few days to talk to friends and family. Fight it. Stay positive Anyway, you get the picture. Actually, most of those came from the USA. It's terribly British for one person to cough and a whole host of others stare and one person shouts, 'we're all dead now, he's got the virus'. Obviously it's not a joking matter but, without keeping our sense of the ridiculous we would go quite potty. Estimates c...
