Update

The car did not sell. The highest bidder was around £3500 but that's not enough. One other guy who had been watching sent an email and he's looking at a figure of around £3400. I am just not selling it that low, it's the price for the car in terrible condition and I know I'd be selling myself short and resent it. When everyone who gets into the car loves it there has to be something good about it.

There is something else in the pipeline, I am not sure if it will come off or not but it would be really cool if it did.

What I have decided to do for now is to just not think about selling it again for at least another week, try and enjoy driving again and fill up the tank!

Someone made me really happy earlier just by thinking about me, someone who is thinking about me just because he wanted to and it makes life worthwhile when that happens.

I know others care too, Robin, Nick David, etc but occasionally a message of 'I thought of you today' from just about anyone is just so welcome. We don't do enough of that I think, we just don't call or write for no reason at all, with no ulterior motive and say hi, I thought of you today.

It's going to take a fair bit to get me looking forward to anything though, this time of year is not good for me what with my birthday coming up on June 4th and I always hate my birthday just because I have had so many shit ones. Being broke right now is not helping of course.

I just keep telling myself, it will all work out OK and this time next year I shall be driving around with the roof down on my car and all this will be forgotten.

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...

Oh dear

The good news is that it could possibly be Jermaine will be moved into his lovely new flat within 6 weeks. Matt is another story. His apology earlier was rather pathetic. He's still not really said sorry to either Daisy or Deej and, indeed, seems to think saying sorry to anyone is more important than being with his mates. He has a set of rules now, in writing and he's been told that if he deviates from it just once he best have somewhere else to live. We shall see. I don't hold out much hope but there is still a little inside of me, I need to believe there is good in him ... for now. Car - still not sold Looked at Nick's new place the other day. It's small but not so much as I feared it may be and could be made to look real nice with a little effort and thought. I know how I'd do it but it's up to Nick how he does it and I am looking forward to seeing the end result. Loads of work still to do at Robin's of course but at least he is up and running again o...
