Lively time of it

Disneyland was really cool

Annoyingly, Deej got a tummy bug the first day and I got it a few days in which kind of buggered things up but we still enjoyed it despite the crap weather of the Sunday through Tuesday.


Our planned Paris trip didn't happen as the French were in strike meaning hardly any trains.

Matt now has his flat and that meant me going out straight off yesterday (Saturday) to spend about £1k on new stuff for him. I was totally shattered and feeling really bad by bed time.

This morning I woke up around 08:30 and sat down to a tea when a call came through from the coach house.

The guy in the flat next to Jermaine had barged in and trashed the place. Jermaine had been kicked and punched and two staff members needed hospital treatment. On the plus side, everyone was really lucky and nothing too serious happened with regard to broken bones or death. Jermaine was fine by the time I got to see him. That was some significant time as I had to sort through what was left in his room, see what was broken, repairable or OK. I also had to speak to higher management and the police and yes, I sure as hell am pressing charges. The guy may be autistic but he does know the difference between right and wrong.

For the record, he's now been moved so this should never happen again.

Jermaine lost his laptop and a cordless telephone.

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...

The soundtrack of my life

It's a Small World After All

In life we are said to meet one soul mate, that special person we can totally relate to, who loves us no matter what and we love them the same. There was a time, not so long ago when we only had the people within a few streets of us to find them from. Then there were trains and telephones and we might find them in the next town. Cars came along to make life easier, TV showed us a bigger view and they might now be anywhere in the country. Then we got air travel and the internet, we've a whole world to choose from. Our streets is now a planet so, why are you alone precisely? My soul mate is 6,668 miles away flying in a dead straight line, that's like, wow!
