It's sunny

... and I am using a weird Spanish keyboard!

Got here safely and the good news is that it is lovely weather. It's not actually hot as such but comfortable.

Met Jim Darby at Gatwick and we are both staying at the same place though not seen a lot of him which is probably for the best as I was already finding myself moving plans of mine to accommodate and that's totally not the point!

I am staying in the room next to the one I had last time, it's OK though I may need to whack the air conditioning up a little more as it's still a little too warm for my liking.

I am sure missing all at home ... being away is great as it gives me time to think and I am already certain that being with John is so totally the right thing, I love him loads and nights without him here are difficult.

Hopefully Matt doesn't get any feelings that I shall love him more for paying for this because that's just not possible, I love him, Jermaine and the girls as much as it's possible to love anyone so I can't do any more. I think sometimes they forget that my only motive for moaning and pushing a lot is because I love them and want them to grow up well and be happy ... Matt, you so better be starting that movie! Zoey, share stuff, it won't hurt and maybe everyone will get on a little better if you do because we are all meant to love each other you know and people that love each other want to make the others happy, that's how it works. Daisy, help Matt, don't do any winding up, don't be lazy and don't screw things up elsewhere to make life difficult at home and make John and Matt's life any more difficult!

Robin ... eat already!

Oh, thanks for bringing me here and for letting me know you got home safe.

Deej, seems I have loads of pictures of you on my phone and the laptop which is great cos I am missing you loads.

Do I do 103 or do I have another G&T this is the question?

Daily events will be more detailed in the travelog which will be done whilst I am here and published when I get home.

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...
