After 3 weeks

Had my eye surgery, still not quite healed yet but, every day gives me better vision and it is nearly at the point it was prior to me getting the lump in the first place. Still having the antibiotic gunk in my eye each day which I don’t like at all!

Had some nice chats with some dear friends, sadly, two of them ended up paying a lot out with parking tickets but I really did appreciate everything they did for me, helped me clear my mind and come to at least some decisions on some of the issues bugging me.

My birthday was really good (June 4) with Daisy, Sean & Adam paying for me to go on one of those mad climbing through the trees, zip wire and balance things … was quite awesome, forgot how much I enjoyed those things! Thankfully I didn’t copy my last attempt at something slightly similar in Florida and go arse over tit down anything! Got taken out for a meal with Matt & Anne which I also really enjoyed. I am sure I am more content with activities than I am with stuff.

We are all set for Spain (nearly) and really looking forward to it!

It appears I have still not won the lottery but then, maybe we need to wait until there is some sort of record involved? Personally, I’d settle for the £126,000,000 currently on offer. That still earns nearly a million a year in interest! I reckon that may just be enough to live off.

Looking forward to Saturday with Nick, it promises to be an interesting performance.

Had a party last Saturday and I am so glad it wasn’t to celebrate my birthday as some may have thought. From my point of view, it was a total disaster to the point it is unlikely I’d bother with another!

As I thought, with me fast approaching 50, the local authority have withdrawn many of the over 50 reductions on leisure activities! Always the way is that!

You Bloody Idiot

I had a really enjoyable time in Meltham with Stan and Pete, even that walk against the wind up the pub on Saturday evening in a blizzard was fun. On the way there I thought it’d be fun to take some pictures of the car in the snow. I had not realised just how windy it was, I seriously thought my door was stuck when I tried to open it but it was just being pressurised by the forces outside. I am lucky really the wind had not been behind me else the door would have been ripped off. On the way back on Sunday I paid a visit to Sue in Sheffield. I like Sue and she is a great conversationalist. The journey was not without incident as the satnav kept failing and crashing and just became useless. I eventually tracked the problem down to the loudspeaker connection for the mount and once I’d removed that it was stable and guided me well to Sue’s door. I am really happy to report that the steroid injection I had last week as helped ease my pain. I still have the pain but it is not restricting me ...

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...

There are some funny people in this world!

Earlier on this year someone added me on Facebook. Quite soon she was adding many people I knew. We were starting to wonder who this was as there was so little on her profile. To be on the safe side and, suspecting it may be someone pretending to be someone else, I was careful what I wrote to them. Eventually, it did become very obvious it was someone faking a profile. I challenged them to stay if they wanted but, today they deleted the profile. I have never done anything to upset this person, I just exist. She added me and my family just to take the piss out of us and to try and get extra ammunition to use against my friends, it is all rather sad. Speaking of sad … Look, I fully understand that James has issues, what they are, I don’t have a clue but he has them and it is for Daisy and him to sort out. I think Daisy would have liked to sort it out between them but, it seems, they are going to have to take the legal route. I totally get all that. I don’t like it but – such is life....
