Rock and roll now

I've worked every day this month but have now finished for the year and don't go back until March - 10 weeks leave = joy!

I'll be in Portugal by Tuesday to join a mate on his yacht and we plan to sail to Madeira, The Canaries and the Azores.

One of the friends I made in hospital has just got home after being in for over a year(!)

She has £9 to her name until she gets her bank account unfrozen.

She wanted a pizza, 10" with onion, but with the delivery fee it came to £10.

She didn't want to phone them because autism and embarrassment about being seen to be "begging".

I overcame my own phone anxiety, phoned them up and explained the situation, they're sending her out a 12" pizza for the £9!

Feels good to help out someone who has helped me out so much, even if it's only in a small way.

 

In other grin worthy news, I'll be home for the weekend tomorrow morning, and if that goes well I'll be home most of next week and possibly home for good by christmas!

every time you look at websites like Ryanair - Easyjet etc clear the cookies and site data. It is said you get different results . All to do with dynamic pricing.

This fancy-ass set of ten graphite eraser-topped Standard HB/No. 2 Pencils features inspirational profanity, calligraphic flourishes, and foil stamping. A great way to add a touch of humour and irreverence to everyday writings. Five different phrases repeat twice - Fucking Brilliant - Fuck-a-doodle doo - Getting Shit Done - Take Note, Bitches! - Write that Shit Down graphite pencils

Yup, from an early series. Dad's friend had a saloon as a rep car, the door panels flexed as you put the key in the lock!

Some very pleasing news from this afternoon:

Hoping to pick it up later this week, then I can spend my Christmas holiday looking at it. Might not be able to resist taxing it from Jan 1st....

I did something I've never done before 

I was dropping a parcel off at the collect+ shop luckily as the guy was collecting, he hung on for a minute to take my parcel, looked about 60, stressed to fuck 

I got back in the car as he drove off up to the next shop, he went in and I waited for him 

I asked him if he was OK, told him I really appreciated what he did and gave him £10 for a Christmas tip 

He was properly grateful, shook my hand and thanked me, it's the best thing I've done in a long time, it's made me feel as good as it did him.
