Eurovision ... I have gone bonkers!

After way over a decade of not watching (except for a brief moment in 2000 which doesn't count cos it was on in the pub) I am going to sit down tonight with friends and watch Eurovision 2007. I promise not to get angry about the political voting or to laugh at the crapness of the acts, I shall be good and use this as a healthy distraction from the real world!

Matt has again decided not to date Kerry. He says he'd quite like for a while not to be dating anyone ... I give it two weeks.

The car now has 5 people watching ... please can they all start bidding now so I can at least feel there is a chance of selling the car. What worries me is that were it me I'd be asking to look at the car myself rather than thinking on paying over £4000 for a car I have not seen. As none of these 5 have contacted me I have to conclude that either they really do like leaving these things to the last minute or that they are not serious bidders, maybe just others trying to sell a C5 and wondering what they go for these days!

Robin is having a lovely time in London though I have totally forgotten again which show he is seeing tonight ... this is annoying because when he told me I did know the show ... hey, wait ... yes, it's that one, erm ... On the Town maybe? Yep, just checked and it is and it was a good movie so hopefully a good show as well.

We are looking forward to our own London trip the week after next. We had planned to go to a Kagoul event but as it is being run by member littleangel and he's a little twat with no brain who loves himself more than any one else possibly could and is only doing it for attention and his own select guest list ... well, we are not going to that, have better things to do. Hopefully Robin will take us down there as also 'hopefully', we won't have a car by then.

Bought myself some new clothes yesterday. I have now finally got myself a larger sized assembly of things to wear as I really can't see myself realistically losing weight any time soon.

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....
