An Amazon Reminder
Hi All, Just wanted to remind you all that if your planning to purchase off Amazon on pay day you can use this Amazon link. Anything you buy will give me some commision and make no difference to your purchase price. I managed to make in July 08 – July 09 about £3. Hardly a [...]
Pride
Pride has been a good weekend. I got to march in the parade under Peter Tatchell’s community entry. I do think a lot of the gay community have forgot what it used to be like to be gay and what pride is suppose to be about. 10 Years ago there were no gay people in [...]
Petrol Prices
Hi All, Petrol & disel prices are set to rise by another 2p a litre according to PetrolPrices.com. I heard on one report that it was to raise funds for public services. We already pay more than most other countries and the majority of the price paid at the pump is due to tax. Do [...]
Money Magick
I previously posted about my finances (See Credit Crunch). I had wrote a letter to the bank explaining my income, my expenses and one off expenses this month (MOT, Road Tax, etc.). I also advised the bank when the best time (for me) would be to reduce my overdraft facility. I then sent out some [...]
A Magickal Grand Plan
Magick (spelt deliberately with a “K” on the end to distinguish between real magick and the entertainers magic) is about more than ritual, casting spells and making potions and brews in the cauldron. Magick can be done in many creative ways. So I decided to come up with a Grand Plan for the next 5 [...]
Credit Crunch
I must admit that I was worried about the credit crunch when I applied for a mortgage (see The Move). But it all was fine and I thought I had escaped any impact the credit crunch could have on me, wrong! My main overdraft account is being reduced by £1,000. Ok this is not really [...]
A Night of Laughter
A few nights ago my good friend Sye came round to see the new apartment (and hopefully me?). We went for a walk for an hour or so to realse some endorphines. I really enjoyed the walk, I should do it more often. We chatted for about 3 or 4 hours, often having more than [...]
X Factor 2009
Wow, I actually really enjoyed the X Factor last night. I usually cringe at the bad singers (and even get embarrased for them!). But this year it seemed to have a feel-all-warm-and-happy feel about it. It made me laugh at parts and for the first time I found the X Factor funny. It was good [...]
Royal Snail
I think Royal Mail are slow at times. That’s probably because I’m from the instant generation. If I want something, I want it now. Not in a week. But it’s bloody annoying when Royal Mail workers decide to strike (as reported in the Telegrapgh) when I’m expecting some important letters. Now I understand workers are [...]
The Unvailing of the BIG PURPLE THING!
….and bring a hat and some cake! On Sunday I was invited to Chrys’ house for the The Unvailing of the BIG PURPLE THING. This is her lovely outdoor sheltered area that has been painted purple and had two pieces of Lammas themed painted glass. It looked great and was an opportunity to catch up [...]
