Flippin' 'eck 2

It's darned well half term again, do these school never stay open more than a few days?

The car has still not sold, not even a glimmer of interest and I am in a frame of mind whereby I am just enjoying this next month as after that my life is about to become hell as I am going to have to start spending money I don't have, paying mega amounts of interest and generally going through financial hell. I have never before known a car so difficult to sell as this Citroen is being. It's be understandable if there was something wrong with it but there isn't, it's as sweet as can be and will make someone a lovely motor but it seems destined to remain a millstone around my neck and I could end up losing loads if it doesn't go soon.

The shite hit the fan with Matt today. Daisy told Kes about Matt and Zipsy and Kes told Kerry who then got to confirm the details. Kes managed to tell Kerry that it was me that told her ... actually, I suspect that Daisy didn't tell her either, she'd probably overheard something from someone else who's seen Matt and Zipsy together (not difficult as they are seen out quite often) Anyway, Kerry knows and has apparently told Matt it's over (she'll change her mind within the week). Kes is also saying that Kerry planned on seeing some other guy this weekend anyway to make Matt jealous so he'd dump her ... oh what a complicated web doth get weaved.

Matt is now saying he hates Daisy because she has 'ruined my life' which is, of course, total bollocks because Matt is quite capable of doing that all on his own and has done again here. It was only a matter of time before Kerry found out from somewhere and clearly Matt was burying his head in the sand again hoping she'd not find out or that he'd find the right moment to slip the whole sleeping with Zipsy thing into the conversation.

Whilst down town earlier and bashing into Matt and Zipsy (who I like by the way) she was there smoking away seemingly trying to hide the fact. I am wondering now if Matt is smoking again? I am also wondering how much of the money Matt owes me he is again spending. As yet he has given me no reason to believe he's going to keep his end of the bargain and treat the loan I gave him as his priority after his commitments.

Martyn says his mum is not well again and in hospital. He mentioned the possibility of pneumonia and that set me back remembering when my own mum was in hospital for the final time. Hers was a far more serious condition though I didn't know that at the time. She also had septicaemia and it was primarily that which killed her but, my point is, I remembered how useless I felt at the time and so hope Martyn doesn't have to go through that and that his mum will soon be well enough to come home again to them.

Robin's place is coming along. I am think I am probably way too knackered to do anything major for a few days though. I need to devote some time to here as well. With Zoey at home tomorrow we may well just blow our last ten quid and go watch a movie.

Planning to see Jermaine on Saturday. Dad wasn't too happy about him when they visited last weekend so I am checking it out for myself.

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 ...

2 Weeks in

Amazing as it seems I am two weeks through my visit here. Some might be getting a little confused about why I am here. There is only one important reason and that is to be with Dennis. This isn’t a vacation to me, it’s just about having to travel to the Philippines because it is where Dennis happens to be. I’m still in very regular contact with home dealing with daily issues, the council, social services and so on. I am geographically away from it but technically still connected. Obviously it’s cool to wander into Manila and see the place, travel in a Jeepney and so on. Wandering around the malls is fun but it is who I am with rather than where I am that matters most to me. Highlights for me, apart from every second I spend with Dennis have to be meeting family and friends.         Veronica and her family and Imee of course who has kept me entertained for hours with conversation about anything and everything     Ireneo too tries real hard wit...

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 ...
