STARBUCKS AS A LIBRARY

I was so shocked when me, Mel and Andrew went into a Starbucks this weekend to find people sat upstairs bloody studying!!

I couldn't believe it.

What I found even more unbelievable was when they, 2 of them, started to give the screaming children the evils!!

Now I'm not one for screaming, infact I'd be one of the first to get the things banned, but it's a fucking coffee shop and NOT the British Bloody Library!!

I mean, look at them. Treating like some sort of library. I don't know how they do it in Japan or China, but this is the UK!!

SOME JOKES

Made a basic error last night:

In bed I touched the other half on the bum but just got the terse reply, "Don't touch what you can't afford."

So I said, "Why? Are you selling it by the kilo now?"

Don't you think it slightly ironic that BT use British actors with nice clear English accents on their adverts?

The last time I phoned BT, I ended up ordering a chicken tikka masala!

-----

The current slump, with falling wages and job losses, is getting so bad in this country that I reckon in a couple of years time Indians will be complaining that whenever they phone their bank they are connected to a fucking Englishman.

Be honest,

How many of you out there were only watching the inauguration to see if he got shot?

VIDEOS AND WEBSITES

Afternoon!

Well I'm hoping that this will be some peoples first visit to my little corner on the internet.

Since posting some videos on here I'm hoping that people will have a look around my website and find some of the stuff on here of interest!!

So, I found an old video that was taken when me and Louisa were in the states back in 1998! Managed to get it onto DVD - always good, and then managed to get them onto the computer. Took up a lot of bloody room, but they're on there!

And now they are on my website on a page I really need to edit properly! So, I'll try and get round to that tonight. Also need to upload some pics to my photos section.

May also do a little BitchFest tonight. That's always fun! :-)

Anyway, if this is your first visit to my website please feel free to leave a message in the guest book. :-)

SMOKERS, DOGS, BEDS & HOUSES

Morning!

I am writing my blog at the moment at this ungodly hour in a state of bodily distress! Lol.

Me, Andrew, Mel and Cassie have come to my mum's to look after little Patch and I'm actually regreting it at the moment.

Obviously the house has been empty for 2 weeks nearly and it was bloody cold, but it seems to be taking forever to heat up. The heating has been on constant and will remain on constant til we probably go home!

The smell of smoke now seems to be making my throat really dry and am reluctant to go downstairs on my own to get a drink, will explain why in a moment, and I don't wanna wake Andrew up.

I can only guess that a smoker's throat can always feel like mine is right at this moment. It's really dry, and I feel really agitated because I need a drink. I'm gonna have to wake Andrew up in a moment to come down with me.

The reason I want him to come down with me is because since Alan died in this house, the house I grew up in, I've felt uncomfortable being here. Specially in the hallway where he died. I hate feeling like this in the house I grew up in and can't wait for my mum to note out. It must be really horrible for her living here on her own.

I have found myself having all nice memories of my childhood in this house but then the reality of Alan dying here comes back and soon puts a stopper in them. It's horrible.

Anyway, I'm gonna get a drink.

2009

Well happy new year.

Didn't do much NYE. Went out for a meal with Andrew's family at Prezzo in Saffron Walden. Was a nice meal.

Gemma's boyfriend went as well. Turns out that he's actually a nice lad. Let's hope that this one lasts!

Can't say that the new year is going too great at the moment but I do have hopes and plans for it to change.

Work has been a right bastard, and it certainly hasn't helped that I have working since Monday and have a 7 day week. But I have booked some holiday next week and am only in 1 day! Yay!

Have finished working in the other department at work now. Back in customer services and since being back in this department, all 3 days now, I am already depressed and pissed off. A position has come up in the hotels department and am considering going for it. I think that I'd have a really good chance as well.

I am going to speak with someone on Monday about it and make a decision then about it. Will let you know. Knowing my luck, even though I have experience in that team already, I won't get it!

Have just sorted out John and Howard at work. John is a flaming Lucy and Howard is a cacti. Gave them some more soil and watered them both. Howard has been looking a little worse for wear since he attacked me from the window sill! Hopefully this will make them a bit better!

Anyway, best get on with some work.
