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.

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....
