Suddenly a little light went out ….

In my fish tank and that bulb costs over £13! So, I have searched online and come up with some for under £6 which seems way more reasonable!

Popped over to Robin to swap the cars over again after our visit to Kent yesterday and, on filling it up was amazed to discover that Kent and back cost £45! Had no idea that sort of trip would be so expensive, that’s around 17p a mile in Robin’s car, thankfully my car is a little more economical but, not by much!

Met up with Deej earlier, it was pleasant enough but we never moved anything forward in our relationship. In time there may be a clearer understanding of the issues but, right now we are too far apart to get anywhere.

Bought a rug for the photo studio earlier. It’s going to need collecting but it’ll look good and was under £17 compared to all the buy it now offers of £45+

Still been feeling really tired today, I really should get myself checked out

Restarted Facebook … not overly interested in the main thing but I did need it active to get access to the Photo bit of it and, as I now have a working studio again, I need as much publicity as possible.

Watching ‘Hugo’ tonight as a family, I hope it’s good as Zoey has been on at us to watch it for months! Looked at the list of movies on our Virgin flight, seem OK, many I’ve already seen and some I haven’t which look OK.

Not feeling terrible social today, not that I have felt terribly social for some time but not today for sure.

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 ...
