Blog 8

Hi friends, firstly  apologies for the gap between the last blog and this one.

So facebook has been annoying me of late...is anyone else experiencing annoying little things like..being told you have a message when you don't, or being told you have notifications when it's old ones being shown? The most annoying thing for me though is having someone I have blocked since last year suddenly showing up in friends'  feeds. I thought the whole idea of blocking people was to ensure that they and you never saw anything on facebook. I was sooo annoyed that I haven't been on facebook since then...I mean she ruined enough of my life and I'll be damned if I'm going to see how she has manipulated and ingratiated herself as such a nice person to people..she really makes me sick! Unfortunately I can, at the moment only see one way to be free of her, ad that is to cut all ties associated with my life that comes in contact with her. I really don't want to do that because there are a few people I care about and don't want to lose in my life. Mind you in doing that I am letting her win aren't I?....Oh I don't know what to do, either way I'm the one that loses out :o(

What weather we're having eh? :o) It has been glorious here in North Wales all week, what about where you all are? It's strange though, all this sun and warmth in the middle of March. Some say that we will pay for it come summertime and we will have a rotten summer. I don't agree, I reckon we are going to get a similar one to the 1976 drought.

1976!! hmm I remember it well lol, I had just finished my three months stint on a stud farm learning to be a groom...which was my ultimate dream, to be surrounded by horses every day....anyway whilst waiting to go to Bucks to start another stint on a different type of stud farm, I began a summer job on the narrow gauge railway near home. I had a fun filled two months there, as you can imagine being a 16yr old lol. I started in the gift shop during the first week and was, I'm afraid to say bored to tears.. couple of days later I was asked if I'd like to fill in as a clippie whilst someone was off sick. What can I say...of course I did :o) Oh we thought we were so cool lol. Health & Safety would have had a field day with us. I suppose like at the fair it's showmanship... ok, ok, we were showing off.... as the train slowed for stations we jumped off and always left it till the last minute to jump back on, having fun with the kids and flirting with the young lads and dads ;op.

Two miles from the station to the end of the line, you could catch the ferry across the estuary to the small seaside town. Well, I say ferry, more of a boat with an outboard motor which carried a staggering eight? people across at a time. It's still there today and still going strong. :o)

Towards the end of that summer we were placing bets almost daily as to when we would get even a drop of rain. Of course the time did arrive when the heavens opened and the rain teemed down.

So what do you think of this madness of panic buying at the fuel pumps then? I can't believe the madness of it all, I mean there isn't even a strike at the moment they are is still negotiating. I f it's like this now how much worse will it be if and when the strike begins. Petrol stations are running dry because of the demand and are having to wait longer for new supplies to get to them. One garage owner said on the news earlier that he'd received his usual quota of fuel.... which would normally last him a good week..yesterday and reckons he'll be dry by tomorrow and won't get another delivery until next week. He also said that because people are concentrating on filling up their cars they aren't buying anything in the shop, and this is where his profit margins are going to fall. Mind you it doesn't help when that idiot Cameron tells people to keep their cars topped up and to keep a gerry can. He is adding fuel to the fire, doesn't he know how dangerous it is keeping fuel in sheds and garages, because let's face it some people aren't going to just keep a small gerry can in their boot are they? 

gerry can? Is that how you spell it? never thought about it before lol :o)

Hope you had a good read and please feel free to comment...please lol :o)

I won't leave it as long before the next one I promise, and please share the link with your friends.

Blog soon and take care all of you ;o) xxx
