Why don’t people reply?

Every so often I send people different greeting messages, the so called friends. Is it not polite to reply to a correspondance? I often wonder why I bother trying to be friendly at all. It’s hard for me to get off the ground, those mental blockers, the self restraint. 

Traits we all have and yet the politeness of conversation, I don’t want to be spiteful or hurtful to anyone, but the steel cold silence is just as offensive to me as someone telling me to fuck off.

Is waiting a day for a reply too long, but no reply in a month? Did I send to the right person? Number correct, check, email correct, check. Social media name, correct.

I am helpless to understand why a simple hello will not suffice. As the sun sets this evening I wonder did I do something wrong? Am I wrong? What went wrong. The distance between friendship grows like continental drift. Soon friendship will be the endless oceon, lost at sea currents taking you in different directions. Maybe one day an old friend might wash up on my shoreline.

Claudia Winkleman has no style


The Sunday Time have made Winkleman a columnist for their style section. Have they gone mad? If anyone has watched any episodes of Strickly Come Dancing and seen the way she dresses you will see she has no style what-so-ever. Wearing dresses that don’t suit her, that give her a funny shape, or the dresses just look hideous. 

In her very first published column she sounds aggressive and annoyed with anyone wearing flats that show your toes.   I am afraid she just won’t offer any insight or interest in real fashion.

Purple is the colour

R.I.P Prince, a true legend and a pioneer in the world of music.

I grew up listening to many of his great songs, to me he made so much great music and in a way helped shaped the person I am today.

There is one movie that Prince helped make iconic and that has to be Tim Burton’s Batman, I feel the need to watch this especially for one scene where the Joker throws money everywhere listening to one of his tracks. This is a great film, part of the new urban noir to which Prince help shaped the culture period of the 90s.

So this weekend I am going to find something purple to wear, everyone should wear something purple in tribute.

May his memory and music live on in all of us.

Who has a kids party in McDonalds?

At around 6pm I needed some food and decided to get a quick meal in McDonalds. After I ordered my meal I went and sat down.

What I noticed was a kids birthday party, one birthday girl sitting there laughing away with her friends. While six parents stood to one side waiting, watching, hardly talking to each other, some looking really pissed off like a fight was going to break out between them.

I over heard one couple say how pathetic it was to have to buy their own daughter a happy meal. And that it would of been cheaper to do a birthday party in the home!!

I was just about to leave but before I did I watched as some parents took some of the kids home and noticed that even half the kids seemed upset. After seeing the reactions of this event it’s clear to me for the child who birthday it was and her family that was just social suicide!

How much for a bottle of water?

I had just drove 60 miles and needed a break so I stopped off at South Mimms Service area of the M25 motorway. I took £1 out of my car to go buy a bottle of water. I went into Starbucks first, picked up a small bottle of water, took it to the counter only to be told it was £1.65 “how much!!??” Upset at the price I marched over to WH Smiths and thought they must be cheaper…

£1.39 was the cheapest small bottle of water there was. I asked the guy at the counter if he had any drinks cheaper than a pound his answer was No!

This is a non-taxable item! Wtf do these people need to charge so much? There markup must be huge! So back into my car and carry on driving home not in the best of wear. No wonder there are fatal accidents on the road! With prices like this it explains a lot!

I do like an empty restaurant

I just went down the road, the first place I wanted to eat was closed so I went across the road into Marks, but I couldn’t buy any food, microwave or oven baked products didn’t really appeal to me.

So out I went and crossed the road again looked at the menu on the door of an empty Indian restaurant and thought the prices seemed reasonable enough.

So I went in and took a table. When I am on my own I rather like empty restaurants. There is something easy going, no other customers to stare at me and think what a sad guy eating on his own. No, I don’t feel ashamed, but slightly imperious to have the place all to myself.

So I felt settled, ordered a starter of an onion bargie, a chicken dish and rice for my main. A little over £10. Very nice food and I didn’t need to make a mess in my own kitchen.

There is something very satisfying about every aspect and comforting that I was able to power walk home.

Tresemme it burns it burns!

Generally I like Tresemme as I have been using one of their products which is with moisturiser. But this version Renewal Hair and Scalp, Now I know what Jack felt like when he fell into that big vat of acid to become The Joker in Tim Burtons Batman! It burnt my face! I went all red.

I don’t know if people have had similar problems with this product or even other similar shampoo products.
 

A Rustlers burger once and never again!

I was hungry this evening, so I went home via McDonalds, which annoyingly was closed at 11pm.

So I went across the road to Tesco, I still felt like I wanted a burger, I had never tried a Rustlers burger before, shoved it in the microwave and zapped it!

I didn’t use the sauce or the cheese, instead I just put some ketchup, mustard and pickle in which I had.

This has to be the worse burger I have ever had in my life. Do people really eat this shit? It tasted like recycled plastic. Chewy and gross.

I just hope I don’t have food poisoning tomorrow.
