Car Sold! (or is it?)

Yesterday the car was sold for £3600 (that would be Weds). I sent the invoice off to the buyer straight off then, about half an hour later he wrote me saying he'd won the car, can I send my address and phone number to him (which I'd already done of course).

I did as requested and have heard nothing since and I am concerned about it. Apart from anything else I think it's impolite to get to the check-out and ignore the sales assistant and not get out the wallet, it's just rude. That's what it feels like this guy is doing. I know there could be all sort of reasons for it but it's not the way I work. Let's just hope he contacts me later on today (Thursday)

I have someone from the DWP (benefits people) to chat to me about Zoey's benefit's and whether or not she can handle her own affairs. Currently she can't but there may be an occasion when she can so it makes it a little awkward to deal with such matters without her there.

John's hair didn't turn out as planned on Tuesday and went what appeared to be ginger but today it is more of a light brown and really looks quite sexy. Anyway, he doesn't like it and wants it more blonde so after the person from the DWP has been here I am going to attack it again with the peroxide.

My hair annoyingly looks OK yet I dislike it being this long myself. It's so frustrating when I am receiving compliments like I have not done in years to a style I don't much like!

I was a little cross with Nick earlier but on re-reading his text I misunderstood. I read it as 'can we do lunch tomorrow' whereas he actually just said 'lunchtime'. So I was half expecting to get lunch supplied and it didn't happen. Thankfully, if this guy actually collects the car I see no reason to give him any more diesel then he needs to get to a garage so I can't really be too concerned about what I am using the diesel for!

Charlie was round earlier and so was Robin which probably worked out well as the two of them did some chatting about the theatre.

Robin was bad earlier and was refusing to eat again. He'd not eaten much all day and had been sick too so it was obviously important for him to eat. There seems to be an increase in such incidents of late which normally means he's about to hit a low. It's just so terribly important that he gets back to eating properly again even if he doesn't have a main meal but just eats 4-5 times a day small snacks of reasonably healthy food.

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....
