Alright, its 730am here. It's my birthday and i'm 42. Show me some love

 

Hoping to get my hands on an xbox series x with flight simulator today. One of my younger brothers might have a connection. He got my youngest brother one yesterday but the little shits never told me they could get them. If i miss out,  seeing as it's my birthday they are going to get slapped lol.

 

If not, cake is all I need and I will be picking that up today from the local  bakery. Wifey can't go as she's in isolation.  Don't think my 8 year old son could manage it on his own...well it did snow, he could take the sled and bring it back in that lol.

 

Hooe you are all keeping safe. 

 

 

Happy belated birthday @Jattdogg!

Me and the Mrs usually buy each other tickets for an event as Xmas presents, gives us something to look forward to and something we'd like to do.

 

Decided to get the kids (my step-kids) gig tickets this year for artists they like. 

 

Youngest off to see Shawn Mendes, eldest Tom Grennan.

 

The middle one, who I take to football, was desperate for Sam Fender tickets. All sold out, but we managed to find 3 for Wembley Arena. Had to have 3 as they wouldn't let you leave a single seat.

 

Told him they're for him and his mates to go...he's taking one mate and asked me to go too 😭

 

He's probably only asked me as I'm old enough to buy the alcohol, but I'll take it 

 

How good is that?! I love Sam Fender and wanted to see him.

 

Proper made my day that has.

First time I've seen my grandparents properly since start of the pandemic, have to say I've absolutely loved every minute of the day so far. 

Just seeing them both pottering around as normal really brought a smile to my face. 

 

Merry Christmas all 🌲

Went to my stepson's grave before dinner and have been in bits all day since.

 

It just never gets easier

Condolences Foxy. It must be awful. It takes love and courage to do what you do every time you visit him.

There's no love like a parent's love.

Thinking of you mate. Time helps dull things but you are right in that it doesnt seem to get easier.  Visiting is a wonderful way to show him how much he is missed and i'm sure he is looking out for you saying "OYE Dad dont burn the bloody potatoes!"

 

Sending you a manly punjabi style bear hug

Ah man, that's tough.

 

Respect for doing it though. Lovely thought.

Better than expected. As I have said before, our eldest daughter has MH issues and has mood swings due to bi-polar as well as other issues. This last 12 months has been particularly difficult for her for various reasons and we've had awful Christmases in the past. As a result, this year we decided to go out for Christmas dinner to avoid the stress and tension of having her at home for 24hrs of unknown triggers that would create an issue resulting in us inviting the local constabulary to join us, again.

Went well. Meal wasn't great but that wasn't the worst that could have happened.

You've just reminded me that my exes sister died young, and when we'd visit her grave it's the only time I'd see her release that grief. I never knew the sister, yet I'd grieve as though I had. 

 

I didn't really understand why at the time, but I do now.

Ah I’m sorry pal, the fact you still think about him so much, is a tribute to the excellent contributions he made in his short time here. 
Hopefully the pride overshadow’s the loss and sorrow eventually.

The Mrs started to feel rough so she did a lateral flow test. Looks like she's got covid for Christmas

Sand it out?

 

All jokes aside, hope she feels better soon. 

[purpleronnie]

The usual complete chaos and I love it.

 

But seeing my nephews and nieces getting older makes me wonder how long will i be able to run around with them being silly all day, that's what i love to do.

 

But they'll be a day when its just all boring adults talking....boring.

On a serious note though, I hope it is as symptomless and easy as my own.

At work and the power's gone out all down the street just when we were getting towards the lunch rush.  Sadly the energy folk estimate we'll have it back in 1-2h so I can't just sack the rest of the day off, nor can I use the equipment in the office to make efficient use of the downtime so I'm just sitting here in the dark like a lemon until it's fixed.

Pornhub, wank then nap.

It’s been bloody hot today, we went to see Sing 2 at the cinema which was nice, although not sure the car appreciated the baking.  When we got back the aircon went on strike for an hour.  Thankfully it came back on after a rest and it’s now keeping us nice and cool.

Followed and unfollowed Matt Piper in one day. Far too many emojis for a grown man.

I really like him as a commentator but yeah he could be a bit more restrained on twitter
