Whoosh - there goes the Pension ...

...more to the point - all that stuff you pay into - like a good boy/girl - from day 1 - means nowt when the going gets tough .... yeah totally p*ssed off about it - they're legal but they're thieves 23 years and then they freeze it - naturally all those who make the decisions are suitably covered by huge salaries, "golden handshake" clauses - and other general "rich bastard screwing small nice person-type stuff".

Meanwhile in rest of sh*t world - tanker drivers strike = panic petrol buying .... 42 day detention = shaving off long stroky beard - and - just in case - all Brazilian Electricians are now Peruvian Plumbers - it makes travelling on the tube a lot safer - oh and apparently the "congestion charge" will make it bad for the "less well-off" trying to get to work - the "less well off" have cars ??? ..... never mind "Big Brother" is cooking - and it more than makes up for the finish of "The Apprentice" (spot the irony - I've never watched either, just in case there's some kind of subliminal lobotomy going on - reading some of the papers, other people seem to have copped for this "operation"......)

Travel - well everyone (viz Man Picc, Man Vic , Northern Rail, First Trans-Penis and Virgin) seem to have bucked up after Monday's fiasco(s) - still time though ....just when you think ..etc etc etc

Football (Mossley new manager - plus new assistant - plus extra snapper )?? Photography (taken nowt since ...not even on "babycam") ?? Walking (to and from the station every day/night) ?? Not yet ... tomorrow - a meal at the Church Inn in Uppermill (have their own "Saddleworth Brewery" on-site - will let you know about the food) - and the weekend sees "Grandma's (birthday) Party" in Belper - 'tis also our Michelle's birthday - and "Family Fun Day/Motor Show" at Belper Town .... might (OK should !) get a Euro2008 game down at the "George & Dragon"Saturday afternoon ..Sunday = walk (weather permitting and all that mid-June proviso stuff !!).

Let's go back to see if Austria can shake off the "cow's arse/banjo" thing from the first half - I doubt it somehow - never mind greece may be poo but my other choice (Croatia) are less than poo !!
