Our chain has broken for our house move :( The buyer at the bottom has pulled out so the lady buying our house now has to find someone else to buy her place before she can buy our place.
We had high hopes of moving next week and I’m gutted.
Damn! Damn! Damn!
Happy Birthday Jason… my present will avilable at the bar of the Dog & Bull this evening :)
Gave Jon a treat at breakfast this morning – a second helping of weetabix rather than the toast that I normally give him!
He was chuffed! Isn’t it nice that I can “treat” him with something so simple and it’s not even made of sugar!
I’m in the process of getting a new car. Well, when I say new, I mean new to me!
The current car is a J-Reg Peugeot 405 1.6 petrol. Nice enough car – not especially quick off the blocks, but sits on the motorway quite happily. Sitting on the motorway is something I do a lot of and when we’ve moved, I’ll be commuting 40 miles each way to and from work. As a result I’m thinking that I need a more fuel efficient car – i.e. a diesel…
That’s not really a problem, you would think – just pop into a used car dealership and buy one! Hmm… diesel cars are rarer than I thought as I found out last Saturday when I traweled round a lot of car dealers in Croydon.
This week, things look a bit more hopeful. A little bit of work with autotrader has resulted in 4 possibilities of which I have phoned 2 to ensure that they are still on the forecourt. The problem now is finding the time to actually go and see them as wmute‘s over tomorrow and my parents are here Sunday…
I live away from home 4 days a week at the moment and I’ve noticed that my diet during these days has become bland. I suppose it’s because I’m not particularly interested in cooking just for myself… That’s right I’m eating ready meals!
I’ve discovered that Tesco will sell you 3 meals for a fiver, so you can tell that I’m not going for top notch quality here :) Iterestingly I seem to go for the one’s with rice – sweet and sour, chicken and mushroom, Thai chicken, etc.
The food’s OK.. the beer that I have with it is better!
This will be great!
Has the world stopped everywhere apart from in Iraq?
I turn on the TV in the morning and there’s “News” from the war in Iraq on all 4 channels! Isn’t there anything else to talk about? No murders? No RTAs? I know it’s important to cover it, but come on! Not 24×7 please!
Nothing I can really add to all the current reporting of the loss of the shuttle Columbia. Hopefully, this incident won’t hold up the International Space Station too much.
I found this on Glazblog:
“Iraq will take in May 2003 the presidence of the…UN Conference on Disarmament!!!! No, that’s not a hoax. That’s just alphabetical order: India now then Indonesia, Iran, Irak, Irlande and finally Isra?l.”
