A weekend Bank Holiday! Oh joy...and then the girlfriends freezer packs up.
More joy! :(
A bit of house tidying-up, and then off to the girlfriends, to say Hi.
If I remember I need to drop in to Blockbuster, and pick up some films for the weekend - Hangover has been recommended...?

Still crazy, no matter how old you get...

This makes no sense; whoever this nutter is, they clearly thought they would get away with treating the British roads like a F1 circuit. Don't. I don't really care if you kill yourself (no, really - I don't - you are simply not worth it) but I do care about the others that you put at risk. You deserve to have your privilege to drive removed forever - banned for life.

Has anyone dealt with these people? I've had a very high-pressure phone call (I can't call it anything else...I wish I had recorded it) they were all busy assuring me that they can get me thousands back from this PPI fiasco. If I cough up some dosh up-front. It sounds like a big scam to me - sort of pyramid-selling? A Bernie Madoff-type arrangement, and then it all comes down about your ears. Anyone know any details about them?

Crazy week, huh...?

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into town, we get someone shot (and we still don't have an accurate, clear picture over that) and then, like Vesuvius, the place erupts! Riots, and then, predictably, people killed. How all that stuff happened and no-one got hurt on the first night is a miracle. Protest over Police stupidity, if you want to, but to take apart the town that you live in...? What possible reason can there be for that? There are hundreds of thugs out there - and the silliest part was watching someone smash in a shop window, and all these creeps standing around with cameras on their phones going mad, taking it all in! And then they are really crazy, and post it on YouTube? Nutty planet....
And then the USA, trying to fend off going bankrupt? USA - with no money...? how did that happen?
