Another horrible week over

Spent a nice evening round Nick’s house (Jan’s too). Managed to get the network going, I mean, connection to the broadband on Nick’s PC which I was really chuffed about as I don’t like to think of him not being connected, I know how I would feel!

Jan looked tired by then, the news about her friend Val can’t be helping there, poor Jan. Rich looked knackered too coming to think about it.. good thing they are both having a holiday!

Looked through Nick’s pictures of his US visit and I so want to go, one day I shall and I am really pleased he had a good time, he needed that break too and a chance for him to travel away from me, proof that he doesn’t need me to have a life (which I hope he knows by now anyway!)

Made the decision today to get Jermaine in nappies, it’s the only way we are going to be able to manage here.

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...

You Bloody Idiot

I had a really enjoyable time in Meltham with Stan and Pete, even that walk against the wind up the pub on Saturday evening in a blizzard was fun. On the way there I thought it’d be fun to take some pictures of the car in the snow. I had not realised just how windy it was, I seriously thought my door was stuck when I tried to open it but it was just being pressurised by the forces outside. I am lucky really the wind had not been behind me else the door would have been ripped off. On the way back on Sunday I paid a visit to Sue in Sheffield. I like Sue and she is a great conversationalist. The journey was not without incident as the satnav kept failing and crashing and just became useless. I eventually tracked the problem down to the loudspeaker connection for the mount and once I’d removed that it was stable and guided me well to Sue’s door. I am really happy to report that the steroid injection I had last week as helped ease my pain. I still have the pain but it is not restricting me ...
