Ha ha - beat me to it DM. ;-)

Gosh I've just hit the jackpot so my cup isn't half full it's overflowing.


Apparently, I've just won Eur 1,000,000 on a European lottery game. How brilliant is that! I didn't even need to buy a ticket. Anyway, to claim my prise I've just got to phone the lottery coordinator, who is based in Spain. It looks to be a premium rate number but, hey ho, I've got 1 million to play with so who cares about the phone bill.


It's so nice being rich. I'm off to buy some shoes. It's been a real blast getting to know you all. Byeee......

I'm very lucky in that I have always been a glass half full person. I am just one of lifes optimists and have always been able to take pleasure in small everyday things.

But recently, for various reasons, I've really struggled to feel positive for the first time in my life.

Luckily though, I have the constant support and kindness of MrJ and my friends (some of whom can be found hanging around here) to keep my cup more full then empty even in difficult times.


Just thought I'd mention it.

Half full at the moment. Just packed the missus off to her language classes after which she's staying with her brother which leaves me to pop over to my brothers to cane through a stupid amount of lager and get started on the 4 ounces of weed we smuggled back from Holland past the divs of her Majesties customs last week. Ha ha! I might even kidnap a dog later.

Oh Jesus BBW, just when I might throw a parody of you on another thread, you get in before me. You blighter you.

Great use of the word 'divs'. It's uncanny that you knew I would've used it.

Seriously I would've.

Skol.

Definitely half full.... nah, better than that... it's almost full to the brim with darn fine wine.


I am blessed with very good people in my life and a sense that ultimately, whilst life is not without its troubles and niggles, I am a lot happier than I have been in the past.


And the future - though uncertain - I believe will ultimately be a happy one.


As Sweet Charity in one of my favourite musicals would put it: "And she lived hopefully ever after"

    • I'm sure they have good reasons, yet safety for the residents who pay the CT should be a priority. £63 million on Other Services?  
    • Southwark Council have a £70m budget shortfall over the next three years, largely driven by the raising cost of adult social care, children’s social care and homelessness. I am sure they’d like to prioritise street cleaning more, but this isn’t realistic. If you’re interested in a breakdown of how they spend their money, the headlines are here:  https://www.southwark.gov.uk/council-tax/how-we-manage-council-tax/our-budget-and-how-we-spend-council-tax/our-income-and I’m sure there are areas where the council could make better decisions or be more efficient, but they’re working in a very challenging financial context.
    • Would you not expect clean streets to be a priority? Rather than suggesting those in Southwark pay more, would it not be more relevant that Southwark actually prioritise it and explain what they are spending our money on.   
    • Batter than closing the whole line down all weekend which they do very often on that line.
