Totally missed November!

My last update was way back on October 17th, that’s like, ages ago!

Since then I have finalised the issue with Northamptonshire Carers. I don’t think they care what they do but, that’s up to them, I am happy that my experience with them is now over and, whilst I regret wasting 3 years of my life volunteering for them, I do appreciate that there are some very genuine, decent and caring people who work there who do benefit other carers.

That’s the last word on that lot.

These are the photography exhibits since the last update

So, a fair selection of picture taking. Only one of those sessions where I felt a little used and abused but, that’s the rough with the smooth!

Robin has been getting his heart sorted which, after his stents, should now be OK for some time so, that’s good news.

I had a lovely weekend away with Don down in Brighton and didn’t take any pictures, how bad am I!

Finally had the surgery on my eye so that’s all sorted now. I have ordered my new glasses and am going to be trying out some contacts too, hopefully I can start wearing them again. That will enable me to do some of the things I’ve not been doing for a while such as swimming.

Last week I started the ball rolling for the divorce between me and Deej, feel sort of numb about that but, don’t have a lot of choice is the reality.

Christmas Decorations went up December 1st!

This week I plan to at least book my hair to be done but also to have a relaxing reiki session with Sue then head off to Kent with Adam & Zoey for a relaxing couple of days.

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...
