“And the fellow’s blue and gray,
or sometimes pink and green,
just check it out on Halloween!”

Hi, Crikey, Friday already! Despite a brief panic over household funds (well, mainly by me!) within the Jones household, all has been well this week. It seems we may need to tighten our collective belts as food and fuel prices continue to rise like a politician’s schoomze fund. Without wanting to sound like a big head, our combined incoming isn’t bad, so for those who are less that flush, things must really be starting to bite. On the upside, we don’t get paid in Euros. 😉 It was the Chameleons Halloween party last night and rather good it was too. We had a Chinese meal and Sandi & Tracey did a top job of making the place look very nice. Rather […]

“No new tale to tell,
Twenty-six years on my way to hell”

Hiya, Note to self for the next post: delay on having the weekend G & T until after you’re written this weeks musings 🙂 Last night the Ever Lovely Mrs Jones was out with friends, so yours truly was holding the fort. Bath time and bedtime stories done, it was time to sit back and amuse myself. I suppose in years gone by, the first thing I would have done is give the kids an hour to be properly asleep and then it would be Lynn time. These days, I just don’t bother and I guess that’s down to the fact that I know that at least twice a month, I’ve got an appointment with my alternative wardrobe. I’ve heard […]

“I got a reason for the devil inside you know”

Hi, How’s things with you? After last week’s not-much-is-going-on post, events have picked up a little. Home-life and family is going well, which is not to be underrated. Parents Evening will be upon us soon and if I can get an early pass from work, I’d like to pop along and see Wee Man’s work on show. Trans-wise, I saw some very nice shoe boots while out shopping with the Ever Lovely Mrs Jones. At twenty quid, I couldn’t really say no, so armed with the takings from my piggy bank, off I went. Luckily, said shop – or rather supermarket – had clothes for him & her as well as changing rooms. So it was a repeat of the […]

“’til it’s over and then,
it’s nice and quiet”

Hey all, Autumn seems to have arrived in the UK. I’ll spare you the in depth weather report, but I will say this, I’m glad the Chams Massive went out last Thursday rather than yesterday! It really threw it down last night and today’s been rather windy. Sure, cooler is better than too warm, but as Maddy commented over on Facebook, you don’t really want to be chasing your hair down the street. 🙂 So it’s been pretty quiet of late and there are times when that’s not such a bad thing. Work too has settled down and the Big Project is both on hold and just about back on track. The pause to stop and consider where we are […]
