Skippy, skippy

Talk about being a bit reckless and without care. He narrowly missed the back end of my car as he aggresively reversed slamming into the skip to try and realign it for his collection.

Had he had an ounce of customer service or even common sense he could have knocked on my door and I would have moved the car but also help manually move the skip which he did in the end.

Ah, this was after breaking the neighbour's concrete fence post with his mad reversing.

I couldn't believe it. Had me and the neighbour not been in and watching it, they would have simply got away with it and denied all knowledge.

Hmmm, I doubt the disclaimer they talk about would stand up in court. Anyway, it was not my property they damaged, apart from a gouge in y tarmac, it was the neighbour's property.

Let's see what happens on Monday when the boss is back in. Let's hope they do the right thing.

Make a Will

We found that Laceys were very nice, helpful and quick.

A lot of you (as in our friends) have got married in the last year or two and you need to sort a will out, even if it is just basic. Otherwise your stuff may not go to who you think it should if anything untowards happens.

Time to have a bit of a reunion I think. Well some people seem to think so, so here we go....

Looks like the Boscombe reef won't be finished this side of the year.

The weather is not nice enough for them to work in so they are packing up for Xmas and coming back in Easter.

Bournemouth Roadworks

So annoying. They stopped and started on around the traffic lights on Poole Road/Surrey Road junction several times now. Then its Christchurch Road up to Boscombe. Driving to work is a pain currently.

Time to become a contractor in the roadworks sector during this credit cunch.

3% base rate

I immediately got a letter to say that my savings rates are getting cut but have only got the mortgage company to pass on the 0.5% cut from a few weeks back. Even then they are not reducing my payments but rather paying a bit more capital off.

Show me the money.....!

Why do Autotrader adverts have to one lady owner, lady doctor owner or even elderly lady owner? What, for a 4 litre Jag Sport, my arse!

They are so cheap at the moment. Finding it hard to restrain myself from getting something for the weekend. Ooer, Mercedes.

Specsavers

Another credit crunch beating offer not to be missed.

Get yourself all Gok-ed up.

Angela on the left

Life begins at 40 don't you know, lardy dah.

Also, petrol was below 95p when I filled up. Oh what a good day all round me thinks.

Getting ready

Some of the group seemed to enjoy it a bit too much.

Photos of the party night are on Facebook but a slightly larger selection are on the Fong Gallery.

The buffet was pretty good apart from a huge mountain of sliced meats and salmon that was still piled up high by the end of the night. Those kebabs were fantastic though. At £80 for just the hire of the place it was a bit steep but we had a laugh.

Anyway, more shenannigans tonight with Angela's birthday bash at Rubyz.

For those coming to Ange's 40th birthday evening at Rubyz, she has decided it is going to be a Hawaiian theme.

Guess that means grass skirts for the ladies, Hawaiian shirts/shorts for the men. If you want to wear a coconut bikini or mankini then go ahead by all means.

Judging by the weather yesterday, looks like Bournemouth might be cold and wet that night, so maybe bring a raincoat as well
