So, this is 2007 ... Hmmm, not noticing anything obviously better

Christmas was cool and I don't mean the weather but in a good way rather than a cool atmosphere so I guess that was good ... what I got was good, what I have given was better.

A couple of days before New Years Eve Matt has Jonny over and the pair of them got very drunk. I mean, not just merry but way past that. Jonny did the sensible thing and passed out but Matt pushed the issue really upsetting Daisy and being totally abusive to me. I told him that if this is how well he controls his alcohol intake there is no way he's having friends over for NYE.

That led to another argument with him telling me to butt out as it had nothing to do with me and how I wasn't meant to be here anyway what with it being his party. He went on to say how stupid I was being, how much of an arsehole I am and eventually stormed out the house.

Anyway, with his promises of good behaviour and being in control I let him have his party. By midnight he was just about already gone. There were kids playing on the xbox and taking control of the music (loud music) which was generally crap stuff. Kids were puking and he wasn't around to sort them out. Chavs were trying to fight their way in and only a lucky fluke stopped them along with some threatening poses from a couple of the guests here. In short, Matt was a disgrace and continued by puking in the garden, collapsing on the landing floor upstairs, telling a few of us trying to help him to 'fuck off' and then carrying on drinking near on all night, playing his guitar just before 5am and eventually stopping drinking and going to bed some time on the afternoon of the 1st. I was not a happy bunny and he has ruined his chances of having any further party here.

Our final remaining DVD player died on 1st too so I just thought ... what the fuck and bought some new ones in the hope we may have some better luck with them ... it's not like I can really afford them but I am of a mind now where I just don't give a shit anymore.

I wanna try and have some quality time with John over the next few days, it just always seems to be about the kids and it isn't good for either of us so when they go back to school on Thursday, we can relax and enjoy each others company some more than we have been ... except that Matt won't be back at college and is bound to do or say something to piss me off and ruin the moment.

I love that boy to bits but he's just being such a pain right now and I suspect not least because he's screwing up big time at Uni and has not yet got around to accepting responsibility for it and is, instead, preferring to settle his brow firmly in the sand.

Robin is out of the nut house at last ... just as long as he's well behaved and keeps eating three meals a day that is.

Oh, I feel like shit by the way ... and speaking of which, I am sick of bleeding so easily every time I go, it's really getting me down now and though I am sure it's no more serious that a regular nose bleed, it's all the same, really annoying and not to forget, sore!

Robin took me and John out earlier to the carvery and we ate way too much. This is part of the reason for me feeling so shit right now as well. Bloated tummy and the need to empty out now and then which means even more pain.

I've been achy too so am up right now waiting for the meds to kick in good and proper. I am really tired but couldn't settle, that and I also need to have the room cooler so am waiting for the air to circulate.

This blog is boring the pants off me now so I'm gonna stop.

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...
