Update

I cant be called a blogger anymore coz blobbers actually blog and i haven’t in ages.

Some interesting shit has happened in the last few months.

Car meets concrete:

Take an Audi and a pavement at 2 am and throw them together and your life becomes a complete nightmare. Loser syndrome as never before.

Saturday night: Crashed car. Live. Have car towed. Get lift home on tow truck along with baby seat, pram and soft toys. Meet fiancé in passage carrying said items. Explain. Argue. Lose argument. Apologize. Sleep.

Monday: Insurance company sounds skeptical at story that resulted in damage to car.
Insurance company appoints former KGB secret policemen to investigate accident. Questioning ensues.
5 weeks later insurance company gives permission to fix car. Rapid weightless ceases, unfortunately.
Another month later and car is returned looking newer than new along with a financial surprise thats gonna take a while to stop stinging.

That and 2 stomach bugs and a bout of flu have meant i cant write my name never mind anything witty or remotely interesting...

Billy,

bloody hell. This is excellent. Pointless, but bloody excellent. You had me smiling! :-) What do you do? It must be creative, right? You could be a writer.

I'm a journalist myself. Check the site I work for: http://www.sonicsubstance.com

Not that I'm trying to advertise the thing. But thought you be interested. Good writing.
