Loads of finch and the odd tit.

September 2, 2009

Off out for the pre holiday haircut today.Ya gotta get down to the wood when you are gunna get some sun on your nut.All over with the number one blade and only a fiver,now that is a bargain,I am not sure if my old barber Speedy is still working now as the new barbers seem to have taken all the custom, Way of the world i reckon!

I was just looking out at the bird feeders and i reckon the birds are getting through 3 maybe 4 kilos of feed a week from us alone, as all the feeders are full of birds and about 20 more birds forming a disorderly queue to get on um. Those folks selling bird food are on to a winner!

Anyroad i am off to get my hair cut,i might get my throat cut whilst im there.

Have a good one,Oh and thanks to the gaffer for the call yesterday to see if i could work the night shift last night…..What do you think?

Circus passing by…

The street theater is well on form today,what with the pot bellied neanderthal man shouting at his kids and the reply from the gollum like child of  “Fuck Off “, i just know that this shite will go on into the night. Mind you we have been lucky the last few weeks so i can’t moan….Can I ?

I spent a bit of time pruning one of our trees today and ended up covered in spiders and bugs to the point where i had two yes two in my mouth..They don’t taste good i can tell ya. The tree looks better for it but it has put me off doing the job again!!

A nice piece of smoked haddock and mash for our dinner tonight so there should be a bit of wind about as there is a large portion of mushy peas alongside of it..I do like the fart joke,Puerile i know but i like purile me.

Anyroad i’m off to peel the spuds.Have a good one and take care eh?

A Lovely Day.

How nice is it to have the sun shining down eh? Gives me a chance of topping up the tan in prep for the holiday. Mrs B has nipped up to the hairdressers for the holiday trim then we are off into Hood Town for a spot of shopping,might even grab a cold one in the Bell if i behave…

Also it is good to see frogs back in the garden,Lets hope that they and the hedgehogs scoop up all the slugs and snails eh? The garden  is looking lush now that we have had a few days of sun on it,Mind you those of you with lawns will be cursing it as the grass grows so fast that you can almost watch it grow.

Anyroad i’m off for a shower then into town,have a good weekend you lot and enjoy the sun.

A very busy week at the factory and we all put in that extra bit to see the job through, And i reckon all of us were well looking forward to these days off! i dint get up till 11 today so i must have been running on empty on my last shift eh? Only the night shifts to go then our gaffer is off on his hols then it’s my turn to jet off.

 Planning is ongoing for the September hols and the added bonus of young Master B coming along with us is yet another target to aim at,Mind you i think we have something in planning for our anniversary in August?? Life is good.

Bad news on the streets of Hood Town as another victimof the gun dies, and another gets stabbed, I must say it gives me a feeling of dread when young Master B is out on the town,Well you never know what you are gunna walk into do ya?

Good news on the garden front as Grunt our resident Hedgehog has shown his face, Mrs B spotted him the other evening (I had gone to bed early) trundling around the garden scooping up snails. i hope we see some new borns again this year,It’s good to know that we are doing our bit for nature.

Oh and my lastest piece of skin art is looking good now the scabby bits are coming away, I am off up the tatt shop on friday with Master B,he is getting some of those crappy tribal things put on,Whilst i am there i shall discuss the ways of getting a longer session on my back to get it done quicker.

Anyroad i got a bit of shopping to do for tonights dinner so i’m off, Take care out there!

kicking back.

The days off are here again after what has been an unusually tough week of day shifts,No drinks after work this week due to the shifts ending on a Saturday and us all wanting to spend some quality time with our loved ones..Next time on days the whole crew will be up the pub for a debrief and a few pints after the last shift..Nice!

It is good to see the garden in full bloom again and the bugs, birds and the rest of the wildlife taking advantage of it,Even my Guz-Gogs are getting fatter..Soon be picking and eating them before the birds get um.

A few chores tomorow and my tattoo on Tuesday so i reckon plenty of chillin time in between should do me some good. Every day brings the holiday nearer eh?

Anyroad i’m off to look at some interweb..Have a good one and take care out there.

Not quite the champ…

April 12, 2009

News just in..Went bowling yesterday.lost.Nuff said! Mrs B is the bowling champ & i have had to give her the trophy (For now)..I am happy to play today for a re match but no takers..If i were match fit i would have won but i have been poorly and am on some special cough medicine and it threw me off my game..Well done to the lovely Mrs B for taking advantage of a sick man. oh and thanks to jesus for the easter eggs.

 

 

 

Cheers to Zeltergiest for the pic…

Good news is we have another day off together tomorrow so it’s all good.if the weather is good we are off for a walk down the Grove,a nice place to spend a bit of quality time i reckon.

Androad i’m off to hear some more gloating about the bowling…Have a good one and don’t eat to much chocky eh?

So the Nottingham city council are now thinking of a Robin Hood logo to promote Hood town,After throwing away 120 grand on the wonkey N, Get your act together will ya,Did the people of Hood town tell you they wanted it when you buggered about with the logo last time.

The above picture is from a pub i went to last year in Lloret,Instant Hood town recognition i reckon.Bring  Robin back to Hood town with pride!

I have read that hedgehogs are in decline so i am well chuffed to say that we now have two resident spikey friends as we now have a youngster snuffleing around the grounds here at Barnze Towers, Our adult Hedgepig Grunt has given birth for the second time in three years. The lovely Mrs B sees to it that they are fed and watered every night so we are doing well with them. And keeping those bastard cats away does um good unall!

Anyroad i’m off for a brew,Have a good one you lot and take care out there.From Hero to Zero.

I am not an animal.

Both me n the lovely Mrs B are on holiday from the daily grind of work..And we are gunna be heading off for a bit of countryside rest and relaxation..Ain’t it good when the world is ya oyster?

The pills are kicking in on my infection and the pain is a bit duller than it was yesterday so things are on the way up..Mind you both Mrs B & young master B have been taking the piss out of my swollen face and the pain makes it hard to take..They love me really..Well i think they do?? Elephant man indeed!!

I bumped into an old colleague from the old factory the other day,Not one that i would call a friend as i found him a bit stuck up his own arse at times and a bit of an arse kisser,but i did take the time to shake his had and voice my grievance against the old boss..i feel sure the message made it through..If not i still despise you!

Anyroad i am off to stick pins in my voodoo doll..Have a good one you lot and mind ya backs.

Barnze say’s “A bit of hatred is good for the soul.”

A bit more ferret news just in..This morning as the lovely Mrs B was getting ready for her day at the office she sat on the patio enjoying the early morning sunshine when out came the ferret. she lobbed a bit of meat to it and came up with the idea of leaving a trail of meat into the shed to lure it in..well it worked and in it popped to be locked in By Mrs B, A call to the RSPCA and this afternoon they came and took it away. drama over..now to rid ourselves of the bison grazing under the fuchsia! The ferret will be missed though, i kind of took a shine to it!

 

A steady shift last night though a bit of a bastard trying to sleep on such a warm day but i ain’t moaning cuz i like the sun.

Anyroad time i get sorted ready for the next shift..have a good one and stay safe out there.

Do they turn into prince’s

I spotted a frog out in the garden today so that’s good news. I reckon they will use our scrape if all goes well. it would be good to get some spawn in there! The Great tits have been in and out all day so i reckon they are nesting close by though i can’t see the nest in the garden? It makes me wonder if our resident hedgehog has been eating the frogs cuz i ain’t seen many this year and that is odd cuz the next door neighbour has a pond?

I supose it all comes down to the food chain eh?

Anyroad i’m off to get the chicken in the oven..Have a good one and be careful you don’t kiss a toad!!!
