A Grumpy Reply
3 11 2007 - 20:50
In a recent blog Max (the dog) made certain disparaging remarks about my age and capabilities. Needless to say this blog contained his usual crop of spelling/grammatical errors (this time a confusion over the use of “there” and “their”). In case Clare reads this I am still out here and I did notice!
I have not blogged much recently as I have just discovered an American TV series called Desperate Housewives. I have been busy watching series 1 and series 2 and so have not had much time to be grumpy. Series 3 comes out on DVD next Monday and I shall be there waiting when the shop opens.
In the meantime, given the recent news headlines, I can definitely feel a serious attack of grumpiness coming on. My bacon sandwich will kill me, one glass of wine a day is too much; immigration is out of control, Sir Ian Blair will not resign and, worse, Ken Livingstone supports him; a think tank wants to “downgrade” Christmas. Also, I had to queue for 15 minutes in the Co-op this morning just to buy a newspaper ( two actually – Mail and Telegraph).
Max should be careful what he says about me as I shall be visiting at Christmas and was considering bringing him a present. I don’t know what will happen now. I’m probably too old to remember a present for him..
