Alright then are we Boyo!

September 4th, 2008

A week off… Yes!!! Arranged to spend half of it in Wales like you do, Jade my daughter, was in Gloucester (North Nibbly) so I picked her up on Sunday and kept her all to myself… Looks like Greg and Clare’s house warming went off well and somehow Greg ended up with the keys to the local pub! Result!!! The weather wasn’t that pleasing but we ventured into Cardiff for some bowling and an Italian meal, very nice too. With everyone munching ice cream in Cardiff Bay I meandered towards a cash point to retrieve my share of the bill only to have the machine flash up “You Have Reached Your Withdrawal Limit Today!” But I hadn’t taken any money out since Friday, it is now Sunday. Alarm bells start to ring!!! I checked my balance and surely enough £800 odd pounds have been withdrawn… This is a feeling I do not like, I’m usually quite unceremonious about most issues I see other people get excited about, but if I could have got hold of the Wanker who stole my money, I would probably be behind bars right now. I’ve calmed somewhat since and Julie has loaned me enough to see me through until the fraud investigation is complete and my money is returned.

Tuesday I went shopping… this is with 4 Women… 3 of which teenage! Though slightly painful and being a little conscious of always ending up in the underwear section, I was reasonably content but had to rearrange the odd mannequin and try on a few hats/ear-rings/bras etc. for amusement.

All in all it went swimmingly well (literally) and it was nice to chill out, I believe Jade got on quite well with Danni and Tara and they seemed to have fun too which is a bonus.

Jade – Danni – Tara

In any case I am now back home with that over-whelming sense of pointlessness, so I’ve decided to sort through all my crap and flog some gear on Ebay for no other reason other than something to do, oh, and maybe make a few quid too 😉
