Thursday already

Not done a lot today, in fact, just did what I planned to do. I awoke after a horrible nightmare that John had left me at around 9.30, I saved myself a padded sunbed then went over the road and bought some croissants which I decided would taste good with cheese and honey ... I have no idea where that combination came from but I was right, either it was a good mix or this cold has totally screwed my taste buds!

I sat down on my lounger by 10.00 reading The autobiography of Nigel Hawthorne and it must be well good because I didn't really move again until after 3pm when I considered lunch may be a good idea. That was just a soup with a roll, was OK but hardly anything to write home about ... except I just did.

The weather changed by the time I went outside again and it wasn't sunny any more but overcast and a little chilly so, feeling tired I went back to bed where I awoke again around 6 'ish to another nightmare, this time the kids were all taken away from me ... I figure my brain is telling me I am homesick though I am trying to overlook it as the concept is a little too upsetting.

Just been to the Yumbo and came straight back again as I didn't fancy going there in the first place, it was just somewhere to go walking to keep me active and try to flush out the virus. I should grab some food but am not really hungry at all ... the rum and raisin back at the apartment seems tempting though.

I think I may have got a bit of a tan today, but then, I may just need a shower!

Is anyone reading this I wonder?

Hope Daisy is OK, heard she got hit by a stone at school yesterday.

Well, that's me, may see Jim later for another chat, I hope so else I may just go back to sleep and yet, I don't feel tired, just knackered!

I'd use some smilies but I can't find them on this flippin' keyboard, they are not where they normally are and the marking on the keyboard are all wrong too, hey ho!

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 ...

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...

There are some funny people in this world!

Earlier on this year someone added me on Facebook. Quite soon she was adding many people I knew. We were starting to wonder who this was as there was so little on her profile. To be on the safe side and, suspecting it may be someone pretending to be someone else, I was careful what I wrote to them. Eventually, it did become very obvious it was someone faking a profile. I challenged them to stay if they wanted but, today they deleted the profile. I have never done anything to upset this person, I just exist. She added me and my family just to take the piss out of us and to try and get extra ammunition to use against my friends, it is all rather sad. Speaking of sad … Look, I fully understand that James has issues, what they are, I don’t have a clue but he has them and it is for Daisy and him to sort out. I think Daisy would have liked to sort it out between them but, it seems, they are going to have to take the legal route. I totally get all that. I don’t like it but – such is life....
