  • The national TV awards are on ITV.

    Do you recon Wossy and Brand will havge dared show their faces? ;)

  • Russel Brand has resigned.

    Wossy has refused to do so.

    :-/

    I still dont know what I feel about this. I didnt lisen to the show, but I did have a listen on You tube, at least that way I knew what the fuss was all about.

    I do think they over stepped the mark, but I dont know what punishment they should receive.

    Cant make up my mind.

  • Celebrity scissor hands?

    So who are they? :>>

  • Being mardy and mashing tea

    Isnt it odd how local dialects have there own words for different things.

    Here in Yorkshire we mash, not brew tea.

    When we are being grumpy we are being mardy.

    you is thee

    yours is thine

    a fight is a feight

    aswell as anall

    self is sen

    and school is skoil

    Anybody got their own from where you come from?

  • Cold and dreary

    Yea, the frosty mornings are pretty for a short while, but it's no fun standing at the bus stop with that bitting chill chewing on your ear lobes.

    I wouldnt mind so much if we had had a decent summer, or could look forward to a decent summer next year, but we never seem to get one these days.

    Sometimes I think the wild animals have the best idea by hibernating through the Winter, and just think how much we would save on grocery and fuel bills, we would miss christmas, but that would save us a few quids too.

    I think I am perhaps afflicted with SAD, I always feel down with the dark mornings, and the dark returning whilst I'm still at work, getting on the bus in the dark, home to a cold house..

    At least I have a coulple of things to look forward too this week, a Halloween fancy dress on Thursday, and tyhen on Friday Bond opens..

    :wave:

  • Got a craving for chocolate

    but there isnt any in the house, and I really cant be bothered to walk to the shop to get some. :roll:

  • Blurry eyed and limp wristed!

    No, It's not Ant and Decks gangster names, it's what I am feeling after spending all day sitting at the computer and typing up twenty pages of my script.

    I think it's time to swich off the lap top now and rest my weary eyes.

    After I catch up on everybody's posts of course......

    :wave:

  • At last its dinner time

    I am so hungry.

    Not to self: Dont miss breakfast again. :-/

  • Not a good start to the day....

    The alarm didnt go off (or I slept through it  ).  Michelle suddenly jumped up, and cried out 'Oh my god. it's ten past eight.'    On a normal day she leaves for work at 7.45, and me at 8.20.   We dressed quickley, fought for the bathroom, she won so whilst she sorted herself I fed the cat. 

    Michelle rused off quickly, I herard the door slam and her car pull out of the drive as i slapped shaving foam on my face and ripped at my flesh with the blunting razor blade, no time to fit a new one, not even time to ,make a packed lunch, and I took the breadcakes out of the freezer to defrost last night especially .

    My hair resembled some type of mohawk, but there was no time to gel it, i put on my shoes, grabbed my coat, wallet and mobile and headed for the door.  It was at that moment the cat chose to vomit on the cream carpet.  I had no option but to clean it, if i left it all day it would stain.

    Time was getting on, by this point my bus had already gone so it meant having to get the larter one.  I went onto my wallet for bus fair, 20p short, and just a £20 note.  Last time i tried to pay on the bus with a twenty he told me where to get off, literally .  So I had to rade the piggy bank where we keep all the coppers.

    I rushed out of the house, to the bus stop just in time to see the next bus pulling away.

    So, I was late for work, no breakfast, not even my regulation first coffee of the day, we have two reps coming in today and I feel urgh!!

    Do you ever get the feeling it's going to be one of those days?

    But they are fecking halloween costumes, after that they aere of no use anymore. :##

  • I'm afraid........

    Our shop, or at least the building our shop is in dates back to at least 1845.

    We have , several times heard footsteps and voices when nobody is there, heard pots of paint rattle as if somebody is looking at them, but the shop is empty, pictures in the gallery fall over out of the racks when not touched.

    But just now, I swear I felt a hand in the middle of my spine like I was being pushed, but there isnt anybody here! U-(

  • Speak up. You are in a Library.

    So the latest initiative to get more people into the library, as user numbers dwindle is to do away with the 'silence' and make it more like a coffee shop so people can chat over a book with a coffee.

    Or, you could just check the book out and go to Starbucks.

    The library is the one remaining safe haven where you are sure to get a bit of peace. >:-[

  • As it's national poetry day

    I thought I would post this.

    Breed by Andrew.

    I am the blood within your veins
    I am the poison in your mind
    I am the pain that never heals
    I am the demon of your years
    I am the longing in your soul
    I am the lust that you can’t control
    I am fire disguised as need
    I am the book you will never read
    I am desire and I am greed
    I am an ember born of a seed
    I am the one who will fertilize
    I am your future when it’s time to breed.

    c. andrew mark bedell

    Looking at the forcast it looks like being a wet weekend, and tomorow we were planning on making a packed lunch and going out for a walk. Think we might have to forget that idea if it rains as heavy as the local forcast predicts.

    Migh just spend the day under the duvet where it's warm. ;)
