Goodbye, Magpie

I am sure that venting my spleen and gnashing my teeth on the mundainity of life is of no interest to any one, so I thought I change my tact.

People love films, books, games, records and the like and I am no different.

So, I'm going to write about those things instead.

Bye, bye magpie - sleep easy.

New Year, New stuff etc (season 2, episode 1)

2009 is here and just like other years is promises to be interesting.  So, I have resolved to try and keep a blog for one year and see how it all turns out.

Went to our friends house last night to see in the new year - pretty dull, really.  I guess it dosen't mean as much as it used to.  Sat about drinking beer, making small talk and committing the most cardinal of crimes as a guest - falling asleep!!  Woke up in time for the fireworks and then we all left - at least I left some beer behind by way of an apology for my lack lustre appearance.

Woke up nice and late, had breakfast/lunch and played games with Alexia and the kids.

Oh, we made a clown costume for Peter's drama homework - he looks - interesting, if I can put it that way.  Black afro wig sprayed red, striped t-shirt with stuff stapled to it and a pair wellington boots.  Very camp, but then I guess that was the point.

More laying about and doing nothing.  Rang my mother and father to wish them a happy new year but they weren't in - probably out ass kissing my niece.  No doubt that will feature over the year.......
