They also think I have too many plugs connected, and that I'm in danger of causing the house to burn down. How very far fetched. Do you lot suffer from the 'tidy police'?

You are certainly not a technophobe with all the I.T equipment everywhere like some on here!

Believe it or not KP, I swore I'd never buy a computer. I'd be lost without the internet now.

Not that important, but I need to know.

 He quoted Shakespeare and it mentions an angry ape but the chap he sent it to is black and kicked off. He probably thought he was being clever but should have checked who he was responding to before sending it. 

I very much doubt he is a racist and it's the usual twitter storm with the permanently outraged up in arms yet again.

I hate twitter.

Tidy up completed. Ok, it's not perfect, but you have to agree I've made a pretty good stab at it. Might not last long mind. My family don't understand me.

I have returned from the dentist with no mishaps, and a temporary crown. Two more visits and I'll be sorted. Steering clear of veggie bacon for the time being.

My mum's 90 today! Bloody hell! She's got a cake, but we thought it best to give the candles a miss. 
Woe betide us if we turn up and interrupt Loose Women. When I asked her what she'd like gift wise for her 90th, she said 'slippers'.
What a woman.

99p for a small bag of Cheddars at the hospital. Scandalous.

I'm wearing my Sesame Street pyjamas, and my best zip up slippers. I look, and feel, sensational. Decided to watch an episode of Gideon's Way, a British cop show from way back in 1965, that starred John Gregson.
In one scene a plain clothes detective accosted a ten year old boy, saying, 'Hello sonny, I'm a policeman. Can I borrow your bike for an hour. I promise to bring it back'.
In the end he had to give the boy ten bob, but got the bike. Why he needed the bike needn't concern you, but I'm not sure how it would go down today.

Brucie's birthday on Feb 22nd. I'll watch his Sammy Davis tribute, then raise a glass to the old boy.

I'm sure you'll all do the same.

Thanks for that, I'll put  it in my diary.

It's also in my diary:

"Do not log onto Bolton Nuts".

  Don't worry, I'm having a low key celebration. Just a few friends in the at home.

Won't even mention it on here.

That's torn it. I'm all choked up now.

All alone at the moment, so I've decided to do some fishless fingers for tea.

Do fish really have fingers with breadcrumbs on them?

It's another world out there.

It's actually a very good series of interviews with people on the outer limits of society.
