… only joking. It’s great to have Jan home with me now after
her 14 day hospital stay. Jan is as
relived to be home as I am to have her home.
It’s staggering just how much time and effort it took to visit the
hospital every day while she was in there.
Well, that’s all over and done with now.
House sales are
slow we are told. If so why as our house
sold in just three days. The property
had only been live in the estate agents for 20 minutes when a lady walked in and asked to view it. She came round at 6pm. Yesterday lunch time she put in an offer and
I accepted. So in reality it can be said
it was sold in 20 minutes. Now I need to
concentrate on getting packed so we can move to the flat as quickly as we
can. I took Jan round to the flat on the
way home from the hospital and she is thrilled with it. Now I need to get cracking but today we will
have a quiet day.
The front page of
the Dorktown News is taken up by a large photo of a JCB that had been used to
smash through the rear wall of HSBC bank
in Atherstone – in broad daylight! The
story says that passers-by “looked on in shock.” Well that’s hardly surprising is it? Wish I had been there … some decent photos to
have been had during it ;-)))
It seems that a dole
claimant got a bit fed up with waiting for a payment to sent out so he sent hundreds of emails to the
Job Centre staff on a daily basis about it.
He was charged with harassment and had his current suspended jail term
lengthened. Methinks that he would have
been off spending the time looking for a job rather than spend hours sending useless
emails!
Have you ever been
to Giant’s Causeway in Ulster? It’s an
impressive site! Here’s one shot I got when
we went there a couple of years ago …
And yet another
cracker …
Two elderly
gentlemen from a retirement center were sitting on a bench under a tree when
one turns to the other and says . . . "Slim, I'm 83 years old now and I'm
just full of aches and pains. I know you're about my age. How do you
feel?"Slim says, "I feel just like a newborn baby."
"Really!? Like
a new-born baby!?"
"Yep. No hair,
no teeth, and I think I just wet my pants.
