Anyway ... several months have passed and the last post was about me going to meet Dennis and, as you can see from the pictures, that's what I did and it was totally and awesomely amazing. We got on really well again, we argued and discovered a lot more about each other in the process and feel much more deeply in love than I thought was possible. Did I mention we got engaged too?

So, that was all excellent stuff and then ... the not to excellent stuff!

Zoey didn't react well to the care home, indeed, she regressed to the point she was put on a section again. That was back in May. Only now, and it's the third week of August is she settled again. She's also living in her own flat so, once again, from the depths of despair comes something good. There are still more things to iron out but it's looking good.

I am currently in more debt than I can handle, it's all rather terrible actually. One of the down sides of Zoey departing was that we also lost her contribution to the household budget meaning I personally cannot afford to live in my own house. It's only by virtue of Sean & Daisy paying that we're keeping it going. I've also got a large debt to pay off plus, as we've started the visa process for Dennis to come here that's zapping the savings even quicker than I thought possible. Come next month I can't see where the money is coming from but, the things we do for love and, I can but trust that somehow we'll get through it.

I put weight on again since the last report. Not a terrible amount but I am not happy.

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....
