In a word Mockney, Fantastic! Lovely weather, good food, good beer, great wine, friendly down to earth people, unparalleled scenery and wildlife and somewhere in the midst of all that we got married went on honeymoon and had the best time of our lives.


On the flip side failing infrastructure, pointless social and economic decline and frustrating politics. But I tried to ignore that on this particular trip.


Didn?t touch a computer or watch a television in 3 weeks!


But now it is back to the old Westminster salt mines.

I have been awake nearly an hour and I wish it were already the weekend... it is certainly not recommended to b having txt convos wiv drunken ppl on their honeymoon into the early hours of the morn if one if wanting to wake up feeling fresh and ready for the day ahead :(

In C.


This morning it?s the Westminster Blues. Like the Delta Blues but tapped out on keyboards by thousands of weary digits and sighed into a million mugs of Monday morning coffee.


But unlike Robert Johnson, who was made the grandfather of rock ?n roll in exchange for his soul it seems that all Satan is bunging us on this package tour to hell is a chance to finally buy that sports car when you?re too old to enjoy it, trips to Homebase on the weekends and the reassurance that it will all end in a Bupa care home.

My tummy hates me, mother has not stopped talking away to me from first thing this morning (even shutting the bathroom door and putting music on loud hasn't helped) and the smell of someone cooking brekkie in me 'ouse is making me feel... well rather yucky :-S


It's not even half 7 yet... darn I'm sure things can only get better... no?

    • I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?
    • Always preferred Grace and Favour to the BMC, commented in the past on this and sadly long since gone   
    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
