Today I'm angry about.....

If you have a life outside of BWFC, then this is the place to tell us all about your toilet habits, and those bizarre fetishes.......

Know about that. There was a time when every day was a Monday. Since I've retired every day's Saturday. Funny though, even now, Friday evening is still my favourite time of the week. :)

This fckg weather. I've seen some rain in my time but since the South declared a drought it's been poor. But the past few days have been a disgrace.

You tried any of Stuart Macbride's books squire? Excellent and darkly humourous crime fiction set in Aberdeen. I commend them to you for your next trip up there.
Thanks for the recommend, fella. Will do. Aberdeen really is a city in which I just like to leave the hotel room and walk, and walk, and walk. It also has a simply magnificent Indian restaurant up the hill from the train station. (and a magnificent Vietnamese restaurant that I found once out of just walking around the place, but have never managed to find again since).

not so much angry as sad...

two distressing deaths this week..

one on sunday - I have two services - 9:30 and 11:15. as I traveled to my 11:15 service someone who had been at my earlier 9:30 service died on their way home - in the passenger seat of the car of a huge heart attack while her husband drove. I was called straight from my second service to go and sit with her at the hospital.... totally unexpected as she was only 53.

then yesterday... the police are alerted by a neighbour who then brek in to find one of my more reclusive members had died at home at the top of the stairs and probably been there 4 or 5 days... she has no family and is one of those people who (like you see on the telly sometimes in documentaries) pile newspapers and books and clutter around the house leaving narrow passageways to get from room to room...

all a bit sad this week....

You've rather taken the sting out of my anger Bish. I was absolutely furious that on top of having had no pay rise for 2 years, I've just opened my pay slip to find that I'm 85 quid down due to paying an extra 35 quid in income tax and 50 quid in pension contributions (for which I will receive no extra benefits).

In the great scheme of things it all sounds rather trivial now.

Aye and no doubt when you and I are out of a job soon we'll still be comforted by that fact.

aye - spot on Tango... many of the people who come to our bereavement support groups say EXACTLY that - "how come the world is getting on with life as usual when THIS has just happened?"

I say it because, on the day of my mother's funeral, kids were laughing and shouting and playing in the street, the milkman was whistling and everything seemed so...normal. It was really, just seemed so strange. Life goes on whatever.
