Still a cracking read Tikay.

More please.

Thank you, & will do. I've kept Diary notes privately, as a lot is happening in my life right now, & I'll try & diary-ise some of it, such as I'm able, & as appropriate. Unfortunately, some sensitive stuff, which is a major part of my life right now, will have to stay off-Diary. Interesting times.

For now, though, here's a shocker....

Tease.

Sometimes, a little discretion is required, & sensible. If only more realised that.

It's a fair point Keith, but it's my Diary, & about my life, & a lot of stuff - an amazing amount - of peculiar stuff is going down right now, with some agonisingly difficult dilemmas & decisions. To hoot & holler about them right now would "not be helpful", but they are happening, nonetheless.

I record them, all meticulously though, & maybe one day, when I retire, it'll make a cracking read, & a good personal memoir.

Did the law change, so that cyclists (who always get the sympathy vote for some reason) can now ignore red traffic lights at will?

It's happening everywhere, though more so in London, they just act as if the lights were not there, "hey, what the hell". When you knock them over, though, they are inclined to get a little mardy. They are cyclists, don't you see? Almost a protected species. They don't even pay Road Tax, or Insurance.

I think they should all be banished to East Anglia, to mix it with the tractors who all seem to run on (untaxed) red diesel in those parts.

Bleurgh.


You dozy old fart! Why don't you look where you're going instead of texting your show-biz mates? 

If it wasn't for fascist pigs careering around the planet in their BMW penis extensions, we wouldn't need traffic lights, or red diesel.

Youi are kidding me, right?

Texting? TEXTING?

I'm long finished with Texts Tom, that's old hat, like Ceefax, I've discovered a new means of communication, though keep it quiet, it's not widely known yet. MSN ftw.

I can do it on my smart-phone, too, see?

Oh, & I tweet.

I wouldn't know, I'm too busy trying not to get run over as I ride my bike in search of a friendly farmer.

I just hope it doesn't involve any dangerous sports like bungee jumping or rock climbing.

Don't want any accidents happening to the old fella.

Anyone ever taken the time to have a good mooch round, & explore, South Kensington Tube Station?

It's quite remarkable, with pedestrian tunnels (leading to the Museums) galore, & the tunnels have quite a history. Some of the external facade - it seems to have 5 or 6 entrances - are Grade 2 Listed, too.

Great bedtime reading.

I think almost every London Tube station has it's own Wiki Page, & I feel a desire to read every single one. Might add it to the Bucket List.

Nice one Dr Marbles.

I actually was fascinated by South Ken Tube Stn, it has an amazing history, particularly those pedestrian tunnels.

I then discovered, quite by chance - I had never noticed it before - what a fine building the Natural History Museum is. It has THE most wondersul mansard roof, which sets off the building beautifully, along with the stunning roof tiling. (They in fact may be slates, but I think they are tiles, my dodgy mincers had trouble seeing properly). I cannot find a photo of the Roof on google Images though.

I see these things by day, & go on "google adventure journeys" about them at night. When I'm not on my X-Box, of course.

FFS.

My first "you MUST attend" Xmas Party Invite just arrived.

I cannot abide all that sort of nonsense that's associated with Xmas. I just want to curl up into a ball & sleep until it's all over.

When chance permits, I try to find some work at Xmas, which ticks a lot of boxes, helps it pass quicker.

But you cannot escape it. Every bloody TV Show has a bloody Xmas Tree in vision, every shop is playing cheesey Xmas music, Bob Hope & White Christmas, Slade's Merry Christmas, Sleigh bells, freaking sleigh bells in the snow.

I suppose not having a family, or a Partner, does not help, in some ways, though deffo does help in others. I think I'll go away this Xmas, to some remote part of North-West Scotland. Or Vegas.

New Years Eve is worse. I swerve all the parties & TV, but I always end up in floods of tears at Midnight.

"Minces" please Tony, not "mincers" which are something quite different.

Not that I'm the argumentive type, Ralph, but I'm not sure about that, though I doubt if the rules of grammer cover CRS.

If eyes = mince pies, then referring to one's eyes/eyesight in the past tense is surely "mincers" not "minces"?

We could start a "WTF" Thread.

I'm sure some of your fellow Thespians will be only too willing to explain all about "mincers".
