Achievment

Finally today the IT team who didn't do their job right admitted they had made a mistake and the company website is up and running again.

My Mazda should be back tomorrow - Yay!

Erm, the plan we had to be Robin's official Carer failed. It turned out that by making it official it actually cost over £35 which is crazy. According to this government, all a person needs to be a full time Carer (35 hours a week) is 48p an hour! That is all which gets added to the benefits we receive already. Of course, the going rate for being a full time Carer not on benefits works out at only £1.44 an hour, so much for minimum wage!

It makes me really angry how badly Carers are treated in this country!

I made a cock up on wedding invites by forgetting it was more complex than just sending out invites at random. We re restricted to just 40 at the ceremony so I do have to be brutal with the invites. Because our Civil Partnership is just before the wedding of James and Daisy we have decided that the guests at our event also have to be suitable for theirs. That both increased the guest list and decreases it in other areas. So, we have thought the plan shall be, invite our 40 (or so) and then those we could not find room for can join us back at the house afterwards.

What this does not take count of is those who seem to have invited themselves thinking it is OK just to show up anyway. That is why the best men will be instructed who is and is not on the guest list for the Guildhall. Anyone not on it will just have to wait outside, sorry and all that but I want to be able to breath in there!

Saw the first picture of my grandchild earlier, I had a little tear.

I had planned to go visit some people this week, sorry, that didn't happen. Tomorrow also is full of activities, rather annoying as it happens.

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...
