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....
I can empathise there. Had a difficult couple of days myself realising the harsh reality of a couple of situations. Must be so much more difficult when you're close to those involved.

Middle name Zak?

Boom.

Woman is revising in't UCL Library just behind Tottenham Court Road, said road was closed, tube stations, and that he'd strapped gas cylinders to himself, and taken hostages. Fecking hell!

they can pay for the water.



And I feckin' do!!! Been on a meter here since since 1989 when the Island & parts of Kent were chosen as a pilot scheme re the feasability of fitting meters all over the country. Dearer than the electric. You soon learn to conserve your water tho, so maybe not such a bad thing overall, not had a wash for 14 years......................

The rest of the country doesn't pay for reticulated water? Good grief!

No, Prufrock - at least not where I live. We have though just come through a 10-year drought during which all sorts of water restrictions were imposed (e.g. No hoses for car washing and no garden watering at all or, sometimes, within very restricted hours.) At one stage the Federal Government was subsidising the purchase of water saving shower heads. I'd already tried one at full price but even though we gave it two or three weeks grace it was still dreadful: I took it off and replaced the original.

It wouldn't take the risk of finding out.

What a f*cking day.

First part spent crawling around mould infested derelict housing trying to get meter numbers for disconnection in sh*t soaked Bexleyheath.

Arrived home to shower only to remember all my suits are at the Dry Cleaners.

Then I discover that the wrong Tax Code has been applied which shows me underpaying by nearly £4,000. I'm PAYE for feck* sake how can I underpay?

Then I get a letter from the esteemed Kent Constabulary telling me I have been clocked doing 60 in a 50 an 1st April, the day of my half marathon, on a portable camera.



FUUUUUUUUUCK! :evil:

My brother had that sort of evening on saturday. We went to my sisters birthday party where she attempted to set him up with one of her friends. Wouldn't have been so bad but she had told my mum beforehand how she thought they would be a good match and my mum had somehow (she claims by accident) added her as a friend on facebook (despite never meeting her before) which she browses on her new phone as my dad as she doesn't have her own account. So it looks like our 60 something year old dad added this random twenty something girl (don't suppose he's best pleased with my mum either!) and this girl knows that this has happened and they are being set up and poor Tom was dragged out to meet her by my brother in law in the most awkward situation so he was not very happy - and then driving back home from Horsham he got flashed speeding. Could almost see the steam coming out his ears when he dropped us home..
