A New Week

Did some detailed planning for New York and discovered some other fun things we could do when we are there that I didn’t do last time which has to be good. Going over it again later in the week to be sure we can do them but looking good.

Amazing news … I made a cheeky phone call to Northampton General Hospital about my eye and they can fit me in Friday morning so, all things being equal, I may have my eyesight back again by … OK, I am not overly optimistic how soon that would be but, it will be quicker for the appointment on Friday!

Seems two people I need to hear from are both unavailable today, is rather annoying but, on the plus side, less to deal with until tomorrow at least!

Reasonably free week, yay! Am not using my car for lifts and favours any more, I can’t afford it so, if anyone does need a lift or a favour, sorry (unless you can pay for the fuel)

On a financial note, I am going to have to make some serious cut backs. It’s not possible to reduce my income any more now, it either stays as it is or stops so, I am one of the poor of the UK officially now so looking at my options, it doesn’t look very promising to be honest! But, it’s only money Smile

Contrary to the above statement, New York is really close now, glad I saved for that when I had money!

Mood still reasonably good though, I have felt a few tinges of ‘down’ this morning I am just telling those twinges to fook the hell off!

Nice day with the family yesterday

I am still not interested in Minecraft!

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...
