And (according to MS History) ordered HIS troops to knock off all the noses on ALL the saints statues, everywhere they went….Like Lincoln Cathedral ? ? ? Research […]

CCJ

Which in the UK stands for County Court Judgement. I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve received notice letters giving me a place, date, time to “appear” at court because a CCJ has been laid against my name. I’ve appealed EVERY SINGLE ONE. With TRUTH, HONESTY & MY OWN Catch ME If You […]

CURTAIN

For me, this has always been the MOST bittersweet of Agatha Christie’s novels. If you know the book, you’ll understand the bitter part.

Bored with the Interruptions

So bored that I even accused the lovely Polish (?) man who delivered a recent parcel – and had to wait outside the door for 8 minutes ‘cos his phonething told him that he’d arrived here to early – of wilfully ruining the Spag Bol that I was cooking. Fortunately (phew!) he understood me (wtf?) […]
