The fiasco that is your kitchen bin must be nagging away at the back of your mind though

Ha ha. Yes, every trip away, it is on my mind. I won’t go on long trips more than 2 days away because I know the mess I will come back to.

Put cling film over it and a post it note saying ‘ In the big bin, fuckwits’

Offer a local old lady the choice between being thrown down a manhole or emptying your kitchen bin when you’re away. They’ll be queuing up.

Souvenir by OMD came on the radio before its like a time machine song for me, as soon as the intro began I was mentally transported back to the 80s, childhood, my mum being young, the sun shining and the company of people long gone. Love being surprised by an oldsong. 

 

The power of music if I don't want to go out but my missus does all she does is put the penguin prison remix version of lana del reys song blue jeans on and before she can say what about now I'm giving it the walking dance to the shower.

The wife forcing my youngest out of his bedroom and making him do garden chores. Their incessant bickering as each try and enforce their will (the wife will win) is like a scene from Emmerdale Farm.

Nice garden, do you have a country pile?

It’s down to the previous owner and the wife. Not a country pile but we do have a larger than average garden, for the house size, that has been lovingly developed over decades. It is very nice but it’s a lot of work. I take zero credit.

Souvenir reminds me of girl I used to go out with at the time. Fit as fuck she was.

The bitch jibbed me.

Great song though.

I can imagine it takes some looking after, looks great though.

The garden or the wife?

Getting a UN security update that protests are kicking off and I can leave work early…

[Furmedge]

Went the post office on Tuesday and sent a letter recorded delivery for £4.05.  Fella behind the counter said he could send it guaranteed next day for an extra £3.60.  Took the chance, stuck with the £4.05 and it got there Wednesday anyway.

Maybe Mellors attends to the latter.

The sun has come out and I’m leading the table football league by 5 points.

This will be one for the feet fetish deviants to get hot under the collar about.

My feet have been ruined by 45 years of 5 a side. You’d be pretty sick to knock one out over my toes.

How did it pan out last night with the car Bruce?

All good.

 

My car is with the mechanics over the summer while I’m in the UK, so it’ll be sorted. 
 

His car is a total write off, he doesn’t have insurance, he tried blaming me, the police laughed at him, he now has no car and I couldn’t give a fuck.

 

In time to get home and watch the unmentionable, for better or worse…

Nothing is brightening my day today.

Birds singing. Fuck off.

Sun shining. Arsed.

Wank,. No energy.

Bill withers singing Lovely Day? Fuckraroff.

To someone from Norris Green, that would be a day out at the park. Looks lovely. Still wouldn't brighten my day though.

Happened across a cold sausage on a plate in the fridge. I reached for a slice of white bread, buttered it generously, added said sausage, gave it a decent amount of vinegar, placed some crinkle cut beetroot atop, folded, then consumed. 
 

It brightened my day.
