Friday 30th October 2009

Mad dash to Milton Keynes this morning as we were all in the mood for some meatballs from Ikea and lovely they were too.

This afternoon James came over, first time he's seen Josh since 16th October. He called asking to see him yesterday. Being a bit of a busy day today, well, this afternoon for sure, she suggested he came over about 3 until 5 (ish). He turned up at 3 and stayed until 4:50 though, the (ish) part meant he could stay until at least 5pm.

There were no apologies for the wishes of death upon us, the insults to Deej, the statement on Facebook that he'd kill me himself for want of a gun, none of that. But, apart from that and a few minor niggles, all seemed well.

Third hand news though, apparently, how true this is I don't know, he's written on Facebook that he was given no privacy whilst he was here.

He spent the entire time in Josh's room. Daisy and Sean were in their bedroom where they would normally be that time of day, Deej was only here part of the time and then, in the office, Zoey was in her room and I was either in the office or in Daisy & Seans bedroom, all quite normal for us lot. The baby monitor was on but then, it always is and it could have been turned off for want of asking, we didn't even think about it until this apparent comment, we certainly didn't pay any attention to it.

So, if true, again, another visit which had to be critisized rather than appreciated, why?

Basically, the best thing for Josh is that we all at least try to get along, I just don't understand why James has to be posting negative comments about us all the time?

True. I don't know for sure it is true though, I am sure someone will send me a screen grab some time soon, there are enough interested parties volunteering such things. I don't need to post this here but, it's my release, always has been and, I feel justified being honest on here. Whilst untruths exist elsewhere on the net, I use this space to tell anyone interested, the way things really happened.

Have a lovely visitor this evening who stopped for dinner and, as usual, another busy Saturday for tomorrow.

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...

Not a good day

Today is a very emotional one for me. I have no idea why that would be the case but apparently it is. For a day that had nothing pre-arranged this one has turned out quite busy. First, I agreed to take Matt for breakfast though I wasn't really hungry. He was being quite argumentative in the morning about some thing or other, I don't recall what exactly but some matter of politics where he was going to argue the toss whilst knowing little or nothing about it. But, even so, I was quite upbeat as Jermaine had gone to school on time ... no, scrub that, i was upbeat until I yet again had to tell Zoey to get her arse out of her room, downstairs, do her chores and get to school, that is when this day started to go downward. I spent way too much money on a new doorbell, true, we needed one but not one that cost nearly £50! This too has not helped. I went to see a garage that can fit parking sensors to my car, all well and good but they needed me to supply paint to match the circles up ...

Understanding the British

As a nation we are a funny lot. We get through the worries of life with humour. Not always good taste humour and the words 'too soon' are often mentioned! Now, this is not unique to us, many other countries adopt humour to get them through. I am going to show some ideas of humour here, don't shoot me, we're just musing this topic. Moment of silence for the people who agreed to live with shitty roommates because they "wouldn't be spending much time at home anyway" There is going to be a lot of pressure over the next few days to talk to friends and family. Fight it. Stay positive Anyway, you get the picture. Actually, most of those came from the USA. It's terribly British for one person to cough and a whole host of others stare and one person shouts, 'we're all dead now, he's got the virus'. Obviously it's not a joking matter but, without keeping our sense of the ridiculous we would go quite potty. Estimates c...
