After getting a back injury at work I have been unable to drive or work. Sitting up for more than 15 – 20 minutes has been a pain, and although I am getting much better, I am still in pain. As I said in a previous blog entry, I will not let this happen again, [...]

Dave Gorman is a comedian/writer who I’ve not paid much attention to. Well…no attention really, if I am honest.
I only really knew about him from some clip ages ago about him meeting other Dave Gormans, and writing about it – which sounded less than interesting.
I’ve seen him a few times on panel shows, and he [...]

The Page 56 Game…. (An idea that has been around for ages)
So here are the rules:
Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
Turn to page 56.
Find the fifth sentence.
Post that sentence along with these instructions in a note to your wall.
Don’t dig for your favourite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
For me it [...]

Today on the way to Tesco (Meadows), a silver Espace undertook Chris in the left lane (coming from Hawley) off of the traffic lights on the Meadows roandabout. They did this so they could cut in front to get into her lane – just so they could get to Tesco those few seconds quicker.
Was getting [...]

It’s a ritual that he’s made up himself! When Alex gets a new Matchbox, Hotwheels (etc) car, it will join him for that evenings bath or shower!
I think it’s just because it’s his newest car/s, and he takes them everywhere as priority before they join the ranks of all the others. He does play with [...]

Time ticks away as we get ready for Alex’s 3rd Christmas.
Last year was the first one that had him getting excited, but still not too aware as to what it was all about. This year he’s starting to enjoy the lights and run up decorations – although I think it’ll be next year when he [...]

The Multipla has gone into the garage (Mill Lane Fiat) for a warranty repair. An oil warning is flashing, and it has happened a bit sooner than expected. It’s also getting a rattle looked into – nothing serious, but it needs doing.
As I am not going to be driving – let alone moving heavy equipment, [...]

Tesco own (Dalepak produced) Mexican style veggie bean burgers have been flagged up as illegal!
http://www.food.gov.uk/enforcement/alerts/2008/oct/dalepak
Yup, as we went through the checkout the burgers flagged up as illegal, which was annoying, as they haven’t stocked them for the last month, and we used to like them…
The staff had no idea why the warning flashed up on [...]
