Shopping day today…….

Posted by Pete on October 13, 2009

Would you believe I’ve logged into WordPress three times in the last couple of hours with the intention of doing an update, only to get sidetracked or just plain forget !! :oops:

Personally I blame it on Facebook and all my lady friends on there, and Duncan on Mad Hatters for sidetracking me to a blog I’ve been meaning to look at but again, kept forgetting to….. sooo! check out the new link over in the blogroll for…… **Roll of Drums** ….. Frigginloon !! Tada!!

Anyway, back to the title…. this morning is shopping time….. food, whiskey and bog rolls…… most likely in that order too….. ;)
also got a large number of cassette tapes for the RSPCA charity shop, I’m still sorting stuff given me from next door after my neighbour died, a few items I’ve kept, most got or are getting ‘Freegled’ (was Freecycle….. long story..) and some were given away or are going to charity shops…. eventually I’ll be able to see parts of my living room and bedroom carpet I’ve not seen in yonks…..

Also have a ‘Magic Recliner’ thingy, basically an inflatable wedge for under a mattress, when inflated it lifts the head end upwards at an angle, I’d put it on Freegle and got two emails asking for it, both forgot to use the word Please and one was quite curt…… neither of them will get it……

Anyway, now waiting on a reasonable dry day so I can get the garden stuff tidied up, roses pruned (murdered!) etc, the holly I thought I’d killed off last year has come back so will find some way of doing it in permanently, sodium chlorate methinks, or just piss on it after a night on the whiskey….. :roll:

Apart from that bit of news theres bugger all else, I still need a good woman, still spend days alone with just the tele and computer for company and am probably still drinking too much……. it gets me to sleep, thats my excuse…..

Soooo….. have a good week you lot !!

Me No Likee…..

Posted by Pete on January 14, 2009

Six O’clock this morning, I’d been awake most of the night….. went into the kitchen to make a coffee, grab some painkillers and refill the biscuit barrel and just happened to glance outside…..
White over and thick fog…… came back and checked the weather station, minus 7F outside, that was the last reading before the battery in the sensor died or froze!
Coffee, a few dunked digestives, pills and a peruse of them Mad Hatter type folks, then back to my nice warm cosy bed…… until just after 4pm :shock:
Its now 8pm, I’m gonna be wide awake all night and I must go shopping tomorrow….. so what the hell can I do until 10am tomorrow when I head for the bus stop??
[Suggestions on an unopened bottle of decent beer please...] :lol: ;)

New Year Resolutions

Posted by Pete on December 30, 2008

Normally this subject is something I care very little about, however, this coming new year I may be tempted to try a few……

Tell us your thoughts on this…. do you intend making AND keeping resolutions or is it basically a load of crap ?!!

Mine: [Tongue in cheek.]
1. Take no more crap from people, especially family, and MOST especially my [ex] parents.
2. Take time to notice the things that are going on around me that are good and disregard the rest.
3. Continue eating Tesco cheapo pot noodles despite Daffy’s comments, if she was that concerned she’d come here and make her argument face to face. [and collect this bloody pink elephant pillow I've been saving for her for centuries... :oops: ]
4. Get rid of the wasters in my MSN Messenger contacts list, those folk that say ‘great, add me’ then don’t log in or don’t wanna chat, that does not include prior contacts I’ve known for a while who I know have busy lives.
5. Stop making New Year Resolutions. :lol:

So, is this gonna be a ‘comments war’ between my regulars here on WordPress and my new friends from the Mad Hatters? Go for it folks… :lol:
