I finally made a decision …

On the car!

I today cancelled the Ford, I just didn’t see any point in constantly waiting for a car just for an extra third boot space. Instead I am doubling the boot space with the Renault Grand Scenic …

The reality is, it is just the better car and for way less money. It has the room we need, it is a more normal feel, it is more powerful, it is more loaded with gadgets, no less economical and, almost certainly to arrive earlier than the Ford!

How can I honestly have stuck with Ford for so long with such appalling service?

I have also completed all the essentials for the Disney holiday … and about damn time too! Am still negotiating on the possibility of me and Deej heading back to have a second honeymoon hopefully without being ill and without interruptions.

Got to meet a friend for lunch today, that was certainly nice and good to catch up.

Found out that my week is nearly entirely booked up now so barely any time to do anything for myself.

Looking forward to seeing Matt and Jermaine tomorrow and, Immy of course in town.

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

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...
