Reality is an Illusion Caused by Lack of Alcohol

I've given up alcohol for lent. It's hell.

I'm growing a beard too! I look silly. It itches like buggery.

More proper news when something interesting happens.

New House and Ikea here we come!!

Well as i'm on 1/2 term at the moment i took a trip with Ma & Pa Woodhead to the mecca that is Ikea. Today i was very good only spending less than a tenner (which is very restrained for me) but i picked up lots of brochers. With our own house to decorate and furnish i can really go to town!! Adam has told me the kitchen is my choice so i'm already collecting ideas and pictures to create my plan!! Oh I love orgainsing stuff!

Unfortunately the snow only lasted a day and melted away very quickly :( and now we're back to the greyness of a northern winter!
Can't wait for the spring!

25 years of mortgage slavery here we come

As you know we put an offer in on a house the other day and due to some hard bargaining by my good-self the offer was accepted! So we're just waiting for surveys and solicitors to get sorted. It needs a shed-load of work doing to it before we can move in but it's on a nice little road in Walkley (we'll give the address out when we've completed), within 5 minutes walk from about 6 pubs!

More importantly the mighty Sheffield United beat Spurs 2 - 1 at the weekend at 'Beautiful Downtown Bramall Lane', and i was lucky enough to be there. the win puts us 10 points clear of the relegation zone, which is great with only 12 or so games to go.

Snowflake on the M25.......the end is nigh.

Rant.....
So, there was a few centimetres of snow in the South and the Midlands and the BBC would have you think that society as we know it has collapsed. Pathetic. You'd think we'd understand by now that in Europe there's quite a healthy chance that we'll have a bit of snow in Winter. I interviewed a couple of blokes from Poland yesterday and they couldn't believe how sad the British are when it snows. It's not as if we have as much snow as we used to 10-15 years ago, we we used to get 2 to 3 feet twice a year. How did we cope!?

Is this really the same country that conquered the world and had the greatest Empire in history? The same nation that was responsible for the 'miracle of Dunkirk'? The very race of people who gave the world - the internal combustion engine, penicillin, The Beatles and Cheddar cheese? What's happened to us, when did we become so pathetic?

.....end rant.

WInter is here!!!!

Well Winter has struck Sheffield - snow arrived today although not enough for me to get a day off school!! Very gutted!
But i'm glad the snow has arrived as i love it. It's the big kid in me, i even like having to slip down the road to get to school! Now the south of England and the Midlands have it worse and so obiviously that makes it headline news, typical.
Adam and i are looking to buy a house at the moment and seen one today which we really like so gonna go put an offer in - i think this may be most scary thing i've done as it's just so much money.We think this is could be the one so we'll see what God does. Should know by early next week.
