EXPIRES 2007

It was sad but now its ridiculous. I dont want to get all American Beauty on you but my life here really is set to expire this year.

I made the decision to leave here and go to Canada back in August/September. I was set to quit my job on 1st May, only 1st May is getting very close and Im no where closer to leaving. The only thing I am hanging around for is my mate Claires wedding on 27th May, well that and my Canadian citizenship papers and passport.....

The week I decided to leave my all singing all dancing oven broke. Its relatively new I guess, a delonghi one. So the main fan oven bit broke but the hob and top oven still worked so I thought as I am leaving soon I thought I'd cope without it. No point buying a new one.

No drama.

Then, my relatively new all singing all dancing washing machine broke. It was quite a dear one when I got it and it was only about 5 years ago.It was one of those top energy saving 1600 spin thing. The warranty has just ran out. But, as I am leaving soon I thought I'd cope without it. No point buying a new one. (Besides my Mum kindly does my washing now. (Result).)*

No drama.

Today I open my freezer to get some of those minging frozen bloodworm things out to feed the fish with and, you've guessed it......my relatively new all singing all dancing fridge freezer has broke.
Now, as Im hopefully leaving soon I'm definitely not buying a new one. Tescos is just across the road so its not like I have to do a big shop and I can buy everything fresh. I will be able to cope without it but to be honest, it just feels like someones taking the piss now.

No oven, no washing machine, no fridge freezer....whats next?

I'm worried about my telly. It too is an all singing all dancing big flat screened thing. Its days are numbered. And although there are tv's downstairs in the pub I dont know if I could cope so much with out it. How sad is that? Ive never rated electrical items in order of importance before but mine are:

1 computer/ipod
2 tv
3 Oven
4 fridge
5 hair straighteners (even though my hair is poker straight anyway, it just makes it a bit better)
6 drier
7 washing machine

while Im on lists...

My favourite way to prepare eggs...

1 poached
2 soft boiled
3 eggy bread (french toast to the la-dee-das)
4 fried
5 scrambled

(yes, Im hungry.)

My new vegetable top 5 are

1 Beetroot
2 Parsnip
3 Broccoli
4 potato
5 carrot

erm, what else...

My top 5 drinks...

1 blackwoods 60 and elderflower cordial
2 fruli
3 magners
4 jagermeister
5 wine and soda - the devils drink

most common thing I say in an irish accent...

"scared the bee-jeesus out of me"

"carphone warehouse"



Well, I'm unable to ramble anymore. Im going for a ride with Johnson and Anne Marie in a minute. Think we are going to stop off at the Church House for a half, I fancy trotting up to the Leather Smithy as well, I'll see if I can talk them around to that as well.
