Problems
Looking at the weather over the last few days, I suspect that coeliac disease and my stroke are small problems compared to what some are enduring.
At least I’m snug in a newish warm house in Central London, with buses everywhere. I’ve even got a cafe opposite and a pub next door.
I also think of the problems I don’t have, like a car, a smart phone, and wondering where my money is coming from.
Problems are relative!
Aberdoom
Not my name for it, but a Scot, who I’ve known for years.
But just look at this.
It must be one of the most remarkable weather pictures, I’ve ever seen.
Why No Flooded Prisons?
In all the rain we’ve had lately, I can’t remember any cases of prisons being flooded.
Does this mean that we are more careful where we site prisons than new homes?
Surely the same rules should apply.
Wobbly Carrot Amnesty
The Times reports today, that because of the dreadful weather, the supermarkets are relaxing their standards for vegetables. The Times calls it a wobbly carrot amnesty.
Where is Esther Rantzen when you need her?
Upper Street Was Quiet
I know, it’s a bank holiday, but Upper Street was unusually quiet.
Upper Street Was Quiet
You couldn’t say Carluccio’s or Waitrose were busy either.
And now it’s started raining.
As I’ve said many times before, when I become the dictator, bank holidays will be the first thing to get banned.
God Gives Her Verdict On Romney
It would appear that God is throwing everything she can at Tampa to try to stop the Republican Convention picking Mormon Mitt as their Presidential candidate. Read all about it here.
They’re Playing Water Polo At Wembley
The Rugby League Cup Final is being played in atrocious weather at Wembley.
They’ve also called off the Sunderland Reading football match, as the ground is waterlogged.
And it’s only August!
A Bad Day For Living Alone
Today is probably not going to be a good day. It’s going to rain all day and the football is in Blackpool, the town with the streets paved with vomit. I suppose the heavy rain forecast for the cess-pit of the Lancashire coast, will clean it up a bit, but it’s not the weather to visit a town without any gluten-free food.
So I’ll just stay here and listen to the radio in between watching the football on Sky.
I can’t even go to bed, as I don’t have a lady to make it more comfortable.
At least with the cafe opposite, I can go there and have a coffee in between the rain showers.
I think I’ll look for a matinee at the theatre. At least, I can catch the 38 bus from round the corner direct to Shaftesbury Avenue. Singing in the Rain anybody?
Waitrose Extend Summer
Waitrose are changing their summer opening hours.
Waitrose Extend Summer
Could this e due to the bad weather. all the staff this morning at the Angel were feeling the cold.
