    Happy Birthday!

    Thank you all. I had a quiet day. Sadly the youngest came down with a sickness bug so nowhere near as nice as I was hoping. I'm planning a do over soon as she's better.

    I don't peel mine for mash usually. More fibre etc. Only had one complaint once and they never did again after I invited them to peel the spuds themselves... It's an option, should no one want to help :P

    New Year.

    Also @EasMid who liked your post. I wrote a long reply, but decided that I really don't want to tell you the complicated and yes, f'cking sad, story of our lives. We socialise in the only way that is possible for us. We don't have the luxury of 'popping' out. I last left the house on the 13th of...

    New Year.

    I couldn't bring myself to celebrate. I miss my Dad and it was our first Xmas and New Year without him. Year to the day we learned his diagnosis so I'm just feeling sad now. I spent the evening watching things, rest of the family were gaming and chatting with friends over the internet.

    Mundane facts about your day: Part Deux.

    I had a lovely day yesterday. I was invited to the making of my daughter's school's (award winning) podcast's 100th Episode. It was at the Molineux and they were talking to Steve Bull, Wolves and England footballer from the 80's and 90's. A real local legend. He was brilliant with the podcast...

    Lardy or Superfit.

    Playing Devil's Advocate on this one. My nearest chip shop is revolting. Overly greasy, bitty chips, small fish sold as big fish, slimy batter. We don't have transport. So we order our chips from a better place and they bring them over. I'm sure we aren't the only folk with a similar issue.

    This is a charity who are aiming to make sport accessible for the disabled. Be it ramps for wheel chairs and changing spaces in toilets, to commentary via headphones for the visually impaired, sensory boxes so neuro diverse fans aren't so overwhelmed by the crowds and the noise that they can...

    Yesterday was exhausting but so much fun! I was amazed though, I have never EVER seen the safari park so empty. No queues for anything unless you had to wait for the ride to finish. All food places had plenty of tables, no waiting. It was really odd considering it was half term and Halloween...

    We had a couple, thankfully not many this weekend too. It was Navaratri this weekend, no idea if that was the reason for it though. Or just D'Bags exploding their money cause they can.

    Had a call from the contractors liaison lady yesterday. Apparently those holes are normal and either happen or don't. She'll come look at them when they have finished and arrange for a decorator to come fix them. OK, but a bit of a heads up would have been nice. I really miss Bob too. Coming...

    Had to call the housing, we are having the roof replaced. Yesterday they took off the front half of the tiles, changed the batons and did something else. Whatever the something else was, I've now got several holes in my ceiling that will get bigger after the plaster has finished falling off. No...
