Vagueness and the Aftermath - A sporadic diary

[technolog]

.....  I love Elvis Costello

Ditch the old man and let's run away together

Sigh...

Too much time on your hands obv. I knew I should have kept you barefoot & pregnant.

Where's me dinner?

See? Chauvinist!

You're batting 1000 today Mr. Prime

Mrs Red.

If I may make so bold, that Post of yours was, & I do not say this lightly, the best Post I've ever seen on this particular Diary, & you have single-handedly improved it.

You should start a Diary.

You need a little guidance with your musical tastes, but I'm always happy to help.

Don't suppose you have a thing about concrete, do you? If so, I can shepherd you to a better place.

I'd also add that your musical preferences suggest a certain era, which surprised me, as I had you down as being in your late thirties.

Pfft!

Don't you believe it. She says "Jump" I say "How high?"

I say "Make me a sandwich" She says "Yeah right, like that's gonna happen."

I don't know what that means but I'm guessing it involves pain.

Sorry my angel, I was intoxicated by Mrs Dog's love of Elvis Costello. Back on the straight and narrow now

I had her down as being born in the late thirties, and even that was optimistic.

Wow, Mam, epic post! Someones been hiding there light under a bushel! Really lovely insight, even for me who thinks I know everything about you.
You really should post more often, you write beautifully.

And its much better than hearing you talk

Thanks - love you too

OMG!!!  Is there something in the Leicester air today?!  Mrs Red...would you like to borrow the bat?

Top post by Mrs Red there especially as she left out Robbie from her extensive list.

And... last but not least one of my all time faves Robbie Williams......

Sorry Ralphie baby  just an oversight.....

FYI Ralph, she thinks Robbie Williams starred in Jumanji.

It would now appear that you are, in every way, perfect, & my happiness is complete.

Yeah, and I have you both down for 'The Lawns' (a care home in Burbage)

Not convinced I got that through.

Memo to self - increase cooey-wooey factor.

God bless you for the A+.

Am trying to write better, take some time to phrase stuff better, but mostly I miss the spot, the harder I try, the more forced it appears.

Am really keen to write a bit of a book, but I have such a limited vocab and range. The idea would be to disappear for 6 or 12 months and really focus on it, I have so much in my head that I want to write about. You would not believe the highs and lows, the variety, the dilemmas I get into. Tomorrow, I am doing something really fantastic, but for job reasons, I cannot discuss it whilst I am still working. Friday, I have a perfect pile of shit to sort. Ditto. So much stuff  I cannot discuss in real time.

Five different folks I am - was - on good terms with fell out with me in the last week, for Sky or blonde reasons. Go figure. Sitting on my little fence of private peace is the hardest thing ever.

Damn you Tom, you made me ramble again.

PS - the supposed book (another on the huge Bucket List) is not intended as a commercial thing, it is just for me, really. Just a weird urge. If I actually put my mind to it, I will do it, you know how obsessed I get.

You must know you got mad writing skillz, Tony!'

Books are like dogs, too, you can trust them. They just sit there, forever, waiting, & you can't offend them.'

But please, when you do write your wonderful book, get some help with the title 'cos this one sucks

'Tom's Tales.'

'A man's love affair with animals, birds, nature, & folk.'

Conjures up a Morris dancing, cardi wearing, Greensleeves singing old weirdo.

Not at all, & that is not false humility, I am not really one who has much self-confidence in certain areas, but I'm very flattered by that, thank you.

I agree my proposed Book title for Tom was not ideal, but I'm sticking with "Tom's Tales". I also felt the Sub-Title conveyed exactly what I had hoped it would.

Remind me - I get confused which is which, but which daughter are you?

I know you are Zel, but that does not help really. Tom always chats about you all, but he has nicknames, & we use a sort of "code" so that I remember which is which. He mentions one daughter, & I say "is that the one that worked at Magna Park?" or whatever, & he will say, "no, no, it is the eldest/the one who lives in Barnsley" da de da.

So, eventually, to my question. Which daughter owns the other dog which came to live at Tom's place a while back? It was a sort of little dog, very very suspicious of male humans, but very affectionate with females. And how is that dog now?
