I have been neglecting my blogging duties – as both a writer and reader of late – forgive me!
This isn’t for a bad reason, far from it, I’ve actually had some bits of good news of late and excitement on the horizon but as is the human condition those feelings come in multisaver pack which includes fear, doubt and nervousness. So I haven’t been blogging about it as that would only add superstition and jinx to the mix but I will blog about it at a later date, when sanity returns (I hope).
Till then I will fall back on waffle and pointless pondering.
First off, I’m A Celebrity is proving reality TV gold. David Gest is providing a big slice of the entertainment but not for the ‘odd’ factor we all suspected at first. The big revelation is David Gest is (relatively) normal and a good laugh, I’d happily have a drink or three with him and listen to the tall tales he tells (for a moment some campmates almost fell for his maid being called Vaginika Seamen).
The remaining campmates are all quite likeable, even Jan Leeming who was initially a haemorrhoid but the jungle has been emotional anusol for her. Myleene Klass is a natural beauty or there is a secret beautician in the bush and Matt Willis is, as we say up north, a canny lad.
My other waffle is the current state of song lyrics.
The Feeling "I love it when you call, But you never call at all"
Hang on. How do you know you love it when they call, because they never have? Please change this to "I think I would love it when you call but this is an assumption as you have never called."
The Killers "He doesn’t look a thing like Jesus"
How do you know? He may be the spit of Jesus (though now I am assuming they are referring to Christ and stand corrected if they are in fact referring to a friend simply named Jesus).
If St Peter were to bump into him in the street he might say ‘Hi Jesus, oh sorry mate you look just like someone I know." I think The Killers are referring to the traditional image of Jesus through Western art and therefore I will in future allow "He doesn’t look a thing like Robert Powell"

"So I haven’t been blogging about it . . ."
Oh, that's not fair, you must give us the details. I'll die of curiosity if you don't. Hey, it could happen.

That's it. I'm going to have to waterproof my chair. It was the bit about Robert Powell which finally did it.

I'd second Marjory's comment only the NHS already provide "wipe clean" covers on wheelchair cushions, so it's all good over here with me, LOL!

My other half's surname is Seamon. If we ever get another dog...
