    Pizza tomorrow night with friends. Car club Christmas lunch on Sunday.

      Cinema tonight to see Motherless Brooklyn

      Off to the parentals tomorrow. Grandmother's 98th birthday weekend but she's in hospital having suffered hallucinations from not eating properly and being generally on her way out. She wants to go home, hospital wants her to go home. Fortunately someone sensible is listening to my Dad who has pointed out she can't look after herself properly and she needs care. Sounds like she's not yet ill enough to go to the hospice that she's registered with which is a shame as it's a lovely place, she knows the staff, and she'd be much more comfortable there. If I could pay for her to have a bed there, I would.

        It would also be great to hear about Zig-Mater.

        No doubt no-one will ask me what I am up to. Which is good really as I hate you all. I just hope I never meet any of you in real life.....


        You assume I wear knickers :P

        Busy one for me, building an SL1 tonight, making some shoes tomorrow am, D&D tomorrow PM, chores on Sunday am & then finish building or start printing with the SL1 Sunday pm.

          Hopefully a really boring weekend. Off to the land of the sheep eaters where children and wife will annoy me. This is not my favourite time of year.

          Lots of bad news this week. Only one piece of good news. I think most are aware I only hang round CUK to support those affected by HMRC. One of my victims, who I talked out of suicide, sent me a superb Christmas card. It has London skyline on a plastic wallet. Inside the plastic wallet is stars so it looks really coll when you shake it! Everyone in the office is admiring it! I think I might add a couple of "x"s to the Ladies name - just to wind up mrs-bp. Not that I am keen on hospital food.....

              So HMRC hasn't yet got their stickies on all his tax-dodged loot?

              This evening, videoing the Panto, also Saturday afternoon. The Christmas Market is on (last night they had a free open air jazz concert with various bands, which was fun), so I'll have a few glühwein, which'll be nice. Sunday... gym maybe, sauna... dunno.

                  Will do! I presume she is the one with the sign that says "If my son visits tell him I am not here"?

                      Find a nice care/rest home and send her there for a couple of weeks rest?
