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"

    • Leave it white then new people can paint to their taste - that is why in show properties, they are white throughout or neutral. Def no feature wall. Might consider a lump sum for flooring as opposed to going grey. Ideally no curtains at all but if you wish then maybe blinds in lounge and bedroom.
    • I normally vote Lib Dem and will continue to do so.
    • the reason Tories have lost votes is because they have lost trust primarily. the voters didn't vote for what the Tories did, but what they promised. you can't blame the voters for the outcome, just because they voted for the party. Labour are in a position of influence so we will have to see what they do.  Reform are there, as quite a presence should Labour continue to fail. It feels as if we are on a very thin line
    • I agree with that The voters authorised strong austerity in 2010 and kept voting for it for 14 years - for that reason alone, given Labour have been in power for only months I can't find my else able to equate them as bad as each other. Yet. It may happen and given Labour's poor decision making and comms to date I wouldn't be surprised if they end up that way Problem is the voters say they want one thing (lower prices/better public services/things working) but then don't reward any government that tries to deliver -  and they explicitly said they wanted higher prices with Brexit and lower public services by voting Cons in for 14 years - so they got what they wanted, they just don't like the reality Whoever is elected now has to find a way to address those years of underinvestment and diminished growth - there is no painless way out. But blaming immigration for everything (Reform speciality) is only making everything worse
