Damn Monday!

Today, I keep being reminded, is 'Monday' ... actually, it is 00:52 on Tuesday morning right now but you get my meaning.

Why is that significant? Well, it is if I have things to do on Wednesday and try to do them on Tuesday because I think Monday is Tuesday making Tuesday Wednesday.

I have a sore throat, yeah, you know, it kinda hurts but pain killers seem to settle it ... I ache like hell as well, that could be the results of the flu jab Saturday ...  also have an ear infection, I really should get that sorted ... watch this space, I shall forget all week and remember at the weekend! Earlier, I bent over to sort out the dishwasher and puked, this is not good.

his blog has seen the last negative entry regarding James ... I think Ihave been using this space to defend myself against untruths which have been shared but, in reality, it is now pissing me off all this tit for tat sort of stuff. Fom now on I am going to presume that people know me well enough to know the truth and, if not, to afford me the courtesy of asking. I figure, if a person can't be arsed to ask then they probably either have little interest or they wouldn't want to hear anyway so, either way, what is written here is either gonna be thrown back at me or seem somewhat pointless.

As it happens, I want a situation develop where I can just be dad and granddad, where I don't get stuck in the middle taking the blame for being the messenger. With that in mind, I am taking a step back. I will help, advise or otherwise if asked and, I always do my best to keep everyone happy or reach a compromise. I need to concentrate more on me and Deej. Apart from our honeymoon, when I was ill, we've hardly spent any time together since we got married nearly 4 months ago now (believe it or not)

My last word on the matter is this ... anyone who can help the situation of James, Daisy and Josh please speak to them and kindly help. Otherwise, maybe better all round if everyone just stay out of their business.

Let's just get along, be friends ... one way or another, we are family!

Now, is anyone interested, among yourselves, of taking bets on just when our car will get cleaned for the first time?

Am shattered now, off to bed ... too late as usual  :-(

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...
