End of the Week

A busy day!

we planned on Ponderosa this morning for breakfast ... we didn't plan for a traffic jam which made our 5 minutes journey over 40. By the time we got there it was really too late, the queue was too long as we'd have gone into the lunch time period so totally no good.

We drove, instead, to Cocoa Beach. I asked the satnav nicely to show me the way but by the time it kicked in we'd already got most the way there so that was rather pointless. Had a lovely wander along the surf. The water is warm but not as warm as the gulf. Lots of nice little fishies and only one jellyfish.

Went into Ron Jon, got an amazing deal ... pair of cool DC's for around 17 quid! I also got myself a 'Vans' hoodie thingy cos I just so happened to have one in a dream last night and there it was so I sort of had to buy it. Visited some more stores too, made a few purchases there as well. Was lovely there at Cocoa Beach

After we headed over to Kennedy Space Center. Decided that we really don't get much chance to visit space things in Northampton so what the heck. Glad we did, nice to get up close and personal with a space shuttle, see the huge rockets and stuff. Overpriced but worth at least giving it a go.

Had a Chinese buffet thing on the way home, all good :-)

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

Hmm, life has this way of bringing about changes

Past couple of weeks we have had Adam take over as Zoey’s PA and an excellent job he is making of it, better already than anyone else before him but then, I knew he would be and he was, after all, my first choice when I was first able to get a PA for her, he just wasn’t available! Nearly a week ago now our Danny turned up rather early! He’s doing fine though and a healthy 8lbs 7oz. I am not sure just which way round it is but suspect that each time I look at Sean I see Danny! Daisy is boob feeding and managing really well though, somehow I can’t help but wonder how the hell she’s managing to stay awake? I am a very lucky guy to now have 4 wonderful grandchildren and so need a picture of them all together, one day, when they are all that much older, I’d love to do a trip with  them all to Disney, it’ll be totally magical to see their faces light up! Perhaps I need to buy more lottery tickets? Maybe I should stop buying lottery tickets? Adam has been add...
