Been out shopping .....(voddy)......got home .....went back out to the car it is pissing water out from underneath... cussing:     Mechanic is coming a 9 am .... eeek:

Voddy may not last long ........... noooo:

Well, may have to stop the diet (even though I have lost half a stone!) but need a drink.

I will explain. My work is seasonal, I work my arse off through the summer and save my money for the quiet winter. This winter, every bloody bill has doubled, then car insurance, car tax, new passport, dentist, etc. We are at the end of the financial drought looking forward to working again and replenishing the pockets, then the mechanic turns up and tells us not to pay him to fix the car, just buy a new one.

Sorry to swear, but we are now fucked. No money and no car. Can I skip the diet today and have a driniki?

Oh good grief we all seem to be between a rock and a hard place.  Group hug not much good but it will feel good. :thumbsup:

My new phone is waiting for me when I get home. There is no "real ale" in this pub - just lagers, cider and Guinness. Heathens.

It appears I'm actually in Rochester - the 2 minute walk to the pub took me out of Chatham. The landlord is a 26 year old Polish vegetarian. I'm not making this shit up. When I asked him what Chatham was like he growled "Chatham is OVER THERE. Rochester is far nicer".

I told him there are lots of Polish working at Gatwick and most were lazy. He seems to have taken offence at that. Good Guinness, mind.
