Hole and Chips with an Apple…

Moli

It’s been a few days since I wrote on my blog. Time and lack of anything interesting had much to do with it. However, it’s nice to hear that people have been reading it and some have even left comments. Please continue to do so. Just say hello and let me know you visited.
A few days ago I visited the Apple store in Bluewater where the nice girl decided to break my iPhone while trying on the latest case for sale. She ripped off the volume button and Apple were forced to replace the phone for a new one and give me £35 of free stuff. Seeing as I want to change it for the new model in the summer, that works out really well actually. It will certainly be easier to sell without all the scratches and it had been dropped a fair few times!!!

Pot hole Britain is getting worse. Had to drive around a crater in the road the other day that was so big James Corden and Beth Ditto are still missing inside!!!

When will the council do something about them? It’s not only the holes that are the problem. My windscreen has another chip today caused my lose stones. It got so bad today I thought I was being shot at with a machine gun…

The Diet War continues with a goal scored against me. The Big Tasty burger won the battle on Sunday. Guilt and regret followed close behind and it tasted great. I’ve started again today and should really carry a copy of ‘Don’t eat this book’ by Morgan Spurlock to put me off eating the bloody stuff again. Certainly if I had to kill it, I’d never eat it… Diet War. Food 1 – Me 0.
I’m looking at taking a long weekend at a B&B somewhere. Cork in Ireland is an early favourite for me and Fleur. Anyone got any other ideas???

Finally, the Mini is due for its MOT any day now, along with a new TAX disc. It’s going to be an expensive month!!! Wish me luck…

Arsehole Day…

Moli

Woke up and the Royal Navy had gone first thing… Sad for my friend Adrian who would have loved seeing a few sailors first thing in the morning!!! 🙂

Well, today was one of those days when every arsehole in the world missed the psychiatric ward and wanted to argue the toss about the most stupid of things. One said, “I bought a printer in 1971 and I’d like a refund as it’s not the right colour…” Well, not really but not far off. Also had a question regarding my right to remove something from sale as it was marked up wrong. Wild horses wouldn’t make me give away £200 worth of discount. However, I couldn’t get any help to make sure I was right to do it. I looked online, on our Intranet, called the Pope and called Head office who couldn’t offer a nuggets worth of advice. Good to know you’re backed up… In the end the customer left before I could get an answer. Only later in the day did the answer come in the form of a web question that said, !Yes I can refuse to sell an item.” Phew!!! Not a nice one that…

My cousin has found some pictures of me taken in 1980 at a fancy dress party. I’m not sure I’ll post them, unless I get some requests??? More over it was great to see my grand parents looking so young and my dad so healthy. Even if he is dressed as a woman!!!

My DIET WAR is in it’s second day. I didn’t feel too bad really. Grapes and water have kept me going along with the Slim Fast. Got a bit hungry towards the end of the day. I had to pop into Sainsburys to get some milk. Never shop on an empty stomach. I spent £25.

You live and learn.

Blog 4

Moli

Hi,

Well, so far nobody is reading this blog. So I could write whatever I want and nobody would care.

Anyway,

I had a good day off on Tuesday. Woke up really late… 12.30pm and felt great for it. Had some breakfast and went into town.

I arrived in Piccadilly via green park and went into the Burlington Arcade. This is an old fashioned place that has a touch of class and inside was a store called, POLISTAS which is a Polo clothing store with some good looking clothes that Hackett have copied for years. Inside I met a very sexy shop assistant called Caroline whom I chatted to for ages. She then offered me a pint of Guinness… After all it was St Patricks days and it would be rude not to. Having not eaten for ages it went to my head… Just not enough to part with a lifetimes of cash in exchange for polo gear. After all, I’m not really built for Polo am I?

I continued to have a walk about and then went into Fortnum and Mason. As I walked around the tea section I bumped into the actor Stephen Tompkinson and we chatted about his series WILD AT HEART and his hope to get a new series. Nice guy and very down to earth.

I let him get on with his shopping only to bumped into the great british movie actor Bill Nighy. He was really odd and I kept the conversation to a minimum… Dark glasses indoors… Very Holywood…

I had to get to BAFTA for a talk being given by the writer Russell T Davies. Such a nice man and very smart. His insights into TV and the media were fascinating. Not to mention having access to the man that brought back DOCTOR WHO and created TORCHWOOD.

I took some pictures of him and I think BAFTA maybe interested in using them. Fingers crossed.
