a you kinda get over that sort of thing

Only once it's spent.

Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

I seem to be going through a phase where I am arguing with many organisations (is 3 "many?) that have chosen to pick fights with me. At first I was enjoying it as they were all in the wrong and I had evidence to support my case. Now I'm just tired of it all.

Or maybe I'm just tired.

Fighting takes a good deal of energy.  I hope they give up and leave you in peace.

You know you have gotten old when all your junk mail is for life insurance / funeral plans and a call from the doctors stating your flu jab is today   ;D ;D ;D.

Processing my faults is a cut and dry business, I understand the errors of my thinking in each year that passes.

Funnily enough I sort of do this in reverse: a few weeks ago I woke up and nothing ached. I panicked, as I assumed I must have died in my sleep. Then they started, and I breathed a sigh of relief.
;D ;D ;D ;D
So true

So yesterday I had to go to a supplier at the end of my road and to my surprise people were filming a scene for a film commissioned by Netflix. I gave the director my best Vin Deisel look (that isn't that hard for me to be honest) but he wasn't buying into it.

Perhaps I had the wrong shoes on. That would be it. Eh.

I'm not sure that Vin Diesel is suited to EastEnders.

Tell that to Ross Kemp.

I'm curious about what was being filmed. Can't really find much on it but I did read that Netflix have commissioned 7 new UK originals.

when in London in October, myself and the wife interrupted a film crew near the globe.
They required us to sign a waiver because we were in the shooting,
Some bloke in a rooster outfit  acting  ;D ;D

The storm over the last few days buggered up my satellite dish and now I have no Sky TV whatsoever and an engineer can't attend until the 31st. I don't watch much TV but for some reason I feel lost without it. Sure there are apps I can install on the Smart TVs to get some favourites back, but it's cumbersome and you essentially lose the "surfing" option.

Maybe I should but a Freesat box for the hell of it.

Put SkyGo on your mac/ iPad/ iPhone.

I do that but I wanted it on the big TV and you also don't get half the channels on SkyGo - BBC ones in particular. Anywho, I paid a fella to come out today and sort it. Paid 60 nicker in cash monies.
