Plus, has anyone else noticed the climate changing? Of course you have. Longer, colder winters are going to be followed by the hotter and hotter summers which is going to devastate the ecological balance in this country and cause billions of pounds worth of damage. It has already! How the hell are we gonna turn all this around now? The timing couldn’t be better and it’s enough to turn me fanatical. Thank goodness I’ve read at least three books otherwise I’d be ignorant and easily led.
So still I’m confused. Is the euro struggling as much as the pound? Will changing the currency mean I’ll have to pay three times more for chocolate? I think I’ll read more about it then agree with everyone else when the time to decide if a change is in order comes.
The Euro. Fancy coinage no?
Hotter summers? I must have missed something… the last ‘decent’ summer we had was nearly 3 years ago. I say ‘decent’, because it wasn’t like they used to be when I was a kid. You know how I know? Because for both the last 2 summers since then, Mick and I have said ‘F*ck working in Chessington this summer, imagine how sh*t it would be’.

I’m going to focus on the good and fun things I do this year in an effort not to notice the poo things.
1st January - I went to my first Ice Hockey match in Guildford. The journey back was pants, cause it was freezing and… wait no… positive things. It was different and entertaining to watch. I’d go again when it’s warmer outside. Or when I have a car.
5th January - I won £50 of HMV vouchers from a forum I go on.
11th January - Went to Kung Fu. I do this pretty much every week, but the fact I’m still doing something involving exercise is almost miraculous.
12th January - Went bowling for my friend’s birthday. Which was cheap and different. And afterwards Alex and I ate at the tasty Chinese Buffet. Num num!
15th January - Went to the gym and when I did stretches I could touch my toes!!!
…more to come…

Most people know more as they get older:
I give all that the cold shoulder.
I spent my second quarter-century
Losing what I had learnt at university
And refusing to take in what had happened since.
Now I know none of the names in the public prints,
And am starting to give offence by forgetting faces
And swearing I’ve never been in certain places.
It will be worth it, if in the end I manage
To blank out whatever it is that is doing the damage.
Then there will be nothing I know
My mind will fold into itself, like fields, like snow.

Did you know that Philip Larkin was a miserable bastard who hated women?
I knew that.

“ …and don’t spend your time looking around
for something you want that can’t be found.
When you find out you can live without it
and go along not thinking about it,
I’ll tell you something true,
the Bare Neccessities of life will come to you
The profound philosopher Baloo the Bear

I have just realised how skinny I have become. I pledge to eat my sweet ass off until I start to look remotely healthier again. Time for a quick trip to the supermarket before work.
But I need recipes, part of the reason I don’t have any food is because I don’t really know what I’m doing with it. I hate throwing away food even more than starving; which is a bit backward I suppose. I must enter Sainsbury’s with a battle plan - or a… er what do you people call them, a shopping list; yes.
…
Great! Although I promise to eat more than just cakes and crap (this is addressed to anyone out there reading this that actually gives a shit). Look I have a pyramid diagram and everything!
In Sainsbury’s pick up those feed the family for under a fiver things. Cheap food and quick and easy recipes. You can collect them and store the recipes in a little binder-thing.
