When i'm 64

Seriously, this is how old I'm acting and feeling at the moment.

Friday was an........ erm.........oh boring day, had a nice lie in courtesy of the Sky technical support man, he phoned at 7.40am to say he'd be with me between the hours of 10am and 1pm, fell back asleep, opened my eyes at 9.10am, phoned Leigh to say i'd be late, rose at 11am, nice Man called Brett or similar showed up at 10 past and swapped my box, so waltzed into work at midday....wasn't apologetic, there's nothing i could do about it! How would they manage with a frozen t.v screen?

David is back from Canada and showed up in high spirits looking frightening in some linen combo affair (Salmon pink and sky blue do not go together).

Left work at the dot of 5 and nipped into Birstall retail park HMV to get Ruth birthday vouchers, called into the Mother's and chatted till 7ish, now AP was spending his Friday evening with his Father watching his brother run round the rugby pitch in Morley in the freezing cold and kept asking if i wanted to come along...........erm nope, i'll pass thanks! but he rang again to double check and said even Katy was going with Grant!!! Then Katy phoned............wtf? i wasn't bothered about spending a Friday evening alone, even if Matt was in France and the girls were still in Turkey.
I can manage....solitary i can do!, had a nice night of dying my roots, buffet style tea of bagels, soup and exotic fruit, wanted to sort out my video collection, then watch Charlotte Church show, Ali G, then Jonathan Ross afterwards (when i'd worked out how to us the video recorder).

Did all the above after collaring Alan and asking nicely if i could have a new Kitchen, some central heating and told him Andy is moving in at Christmas.
Bed at midnight and slept like the dead.


Saturday, shuffled around all day like an OAP, went to Asda and Curry's to take back the freeview box (can't believe poor girl gave me a refund, when the box wasn't faulty my aerial is fooked and i'd had it for over 5 weeks) oh well!!! went to Oxfam and donated 50 videos i'll never watch again to the starving Children in Africa.
Ligged on the sofa and watched Failure to Launch on DVD, (what a crock of shit), now Saturday evening we had the pictures and a takeaway planned to save cash and Andy wanted to not have hangover on Sunday as he was meeting the lads to watch the footie. Fine by me, I'm sure i can manage a night away from the Sports club and the wags.

So i collected him from the club, Colin Thompson tried to climb in my car, saying "will i do?"...oh how i laughed!!!!??!. Nipped in G&D's and caught them in a state of undress again, watched Severance at the showcase, it was okay, I've seen worse, then called for a Chinky on the way home from the Rat Kitchen.
Andy went up to bed to watch Match of the Day, i watched Robbie on Sky, read a while, then joined Randy Porrait at midnight!

Sunday, up and watched the Xfactor in bed with tea and coffee, guffawed plenty.. at all the muppets singing Robbie and Maria Carey respectively, completely out of tune. Andy left to get changed, i put the washer on, Ruth and Mark arrived at 2ish, we collected Andy and went for Ruth's birthday Sunday dinner kind of affair at the Toby Carvery in Morley. Only 1/2 hr wait, sat outside in the beer garden with our tall soft drinks and chatted pleasantly, the food was okay (funniest thing was, i asked Ruth and Mark if they wanted to go and get served 1st, Andy thought i meant him and Mark as they are a couple.........cripes).Saw Jonny Red..random!
We all went to the Rose and Crown, got a funny look from John P, he must have thought i was muscling in on the lads footie watching bonding afternoon.
Me, Mark and Ruth sat in the beer garden, then had more drinks at mine after i'd said au revior to Andy, leaving him with Little Bro, Woz, Blacky and Deano (who are all probably hung-over to fook this Morning).

Spent the rest of my day, washing, lying on sofa, had another buffet tea, then went to bed at 10.15pm to watch Peter Kay, was laughing like a drain, no matter how many times i watch him, he still tickles me.
So that's my weekend, jealous aren't you? back at work today, am looking forward to going to the White Rose at lunch and treating myself to some comfy Clarkes shoes and some new slacks with elasticated waists.........might have a quick look at zimmer frames on the way out.
