It's a Conspiracy I tell you!

You know when you have one of 'those' weeks? You know, wake up Monday morning, all seems to be well, the start of a new week and then, by the evening the trend for the week is set and it is all downhill ... and this does not mean more economical.

Yes, we have the 'James' ongoing situation, we have the neighbours from hell who have stolen my stuff and the companies who don't seem to give a shit even though they gave it to them! We have the car which we are now told we won't have before the wedding because it was damaged in transit and somehow this is all jolly unfortunate but guess who has to foot the bill for sorting out the mess it causes (grr). We have James sister, Emily pissing Daisy off and being really rude, we have the Post Office who can't organise a piss up in a brewery unable to tell me with any certainty whether or not I shall get the letter I paid to be delivered, the second this week which someone didn't put the correct postage on. We then have the issue of the money I lent someone which would be paid straight back because the money was sitting in the account ... only, it wasn't and now I am being told I am the bad guy for asking to be repaid!

In summary, quite a shit week ... yes, of course, some of it was also rather cool, not enough to balance out the shit but even so, had the shit not been there it would have been amazing. I tried to get it all resolved this week, I have resolved zero % :-(

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...
