Continuing my adventurous life, I have been sitting here watching the 'West Somerset Railway in action. This is partly because I had so many emails to deal with, both of them now attended to, and the lack of energy to take me further than the shops.
This lack of energy has nothing whatsoever to do with the football that fills the screen each night. At five in the evening sometimes, then at seven or seven forty five, but always something of great importance dances upon the screen. Now I accept that watching highly paid individuals miss open goals, deny blatant fouls, and scream abuse at officials is a terribly sad thing, however, it has been worth it so far. Tonight there may indeed be blessings galore shown to us.
At Five in the evening the Republic of Ireland entertain Scotland, if Scotland win this will be highly advantageous for us. Then at 7:45 England play Italy in Wolverhampton, for reasons unclear, and when Italy obtain a glorious high scoring victory I can tell you both Ireland and Scotland, plus Wales, will rejoice with exceeding joy.
Not that we have a grudge against the imperialist despots you understand.
However, all this takes away time for other things, such as eating and washing, so during the day, when I ought to be eating and washing, I have to attend to my emails, read the papers, fall asleep, and send time wondering what day it is. Normal day as it were.
I did receive a nice letter from the Chief Constable. He replied much as I expected, stating his position and soon I will reply nicely also. Quite why the two constables were required to deliver this letter, and in doing so beat the living daily lights out of me as part of the reply I fail to understand.
They were big girls too!
However, this has gone as far as it can so I will move on, once the bruises heal.
Today my interesting life took me to supermarkets, wearing a jacket while the temperature soared high before 9 am, and then to a Norwegian Chilli Salmon for dinner. I did not realise Norwegians used Chilli! It may be a Viking leftover. Now football has begin, I must watch in case I miss something, and then look up the maps to find out where half these teams originate. Ukraine we now all know only too well, but so many have never heard of Armenia, yet it goes back way into history. I suspect few have heard of the Armenian holocaust of 1915 the government does not wish to speak off, nor the connections between the Armenians and the Romans in far off days. And we will not begin on Nagorno-Karabakh!
