Today was the first day of spring
so I thought it best to add a few more layers of clothing because it was jolly
cold, and while on the subject of jolly cold there was also a budget by Mr
Osborne the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Now when I say Mr Osborne I do not
refer to Ozzy Osborne because I think his budget would be a bit different and
certainly far more entertaining, but sadly just as pointless. I have heard
rumour that Poor old Ozzy may have finally lost the plot, well I guess he has
had his moments over the years, but here in Britain he is a well loved institution
and most folk will overlook the bad stuff.
However George Osborne the
Chancellor of the Exchequer is a less loved institution and most folk don’t overlook
the bad stuff and shout at him loads and quite often think he has lost the
plot. He always seems a bit strange to me and I have never entirely worked out
why, maybe it is because he reminds me of one of dads Steam Powered Zombies
that I mentioned last night, but to date he has never turned up at the front
door and hugged dad and said HELLO GRANNY. The other thing I can’t hear is if
he hisses you see steam powered Zombies do hiss due to the steam, but the
problem is people keep hissing at him and so if he does hiss I can’t hear it. Mum says he’s mad but the theory is that only
someone mad would want to be Chancellor of the Exchequer . . . . . . Well mad or a zombie, me thinks.
In less
interesting news I was attacked by a gooseberry bush today which was not nice
those things have spikes all over them (the bushes not the gooseberries) I
think it may have been protecting its young because under the gooseberry bush
were baby gooseberry bushes, maybe that’s where that stupid saying came from
about babies and gooseberry bushes that meant our class spent several days crawling
about in the mud during the sex education lesson sometime ago given by Miss
Davies at school, who finally cracked after a school inspection and ran off to
become a nun. Actually I think the final straw may have been accidently running
into Mr Jones the Alien hunter in the woods, apparently she told the headmaster
she saw things that night she would never want to see again.
And finally I
have caught the Ghost Writer disease and cant find a couple of cables that I
thought were in my bag of important things, that has things in it although not
two cables that I thought were…… I will blame the Cat because its smaller than
me, or better still I will blame George Osborne everyone will believe that and
BOO at him (again).

gooseberry bushes? what were mulberry bushes for? and I am frankly horrified...yes...HORRIFIED...that you used the word sex and george osbourne in the same post...all decorum has been lost! ;)
ReplyDeleteYes I am very sorry about using the S e x word it is a subject that would not normally come up (And no jokes anyone, this is a child friendly blog . . . . Yes I'm watching Miss Lily). It is just that baby gooseberry plants under a gooseberry plant really did happen today and well this is a diary and it is not my fault that Mr Osborne was on the TV (that's George not Ozzy)saving the world (sort of, OK not really) and I have lost two cables and the Ghost Writer two discs and now I appear to have lost a decorum . . . .. By the way what does a decorum look like not sure I have seen one of those before is it sort of pointy stick like, I have pointy sticks
DeleteWhat are Mulberry bushes for I have noticed folk going round them from time to time drinking lemonade but other than that I don't know much about them.
I finaLLy found the right cable for the LCD display for my Arduino project. I have it aLL wrote up and included some photos but no graphs just yet. There is alot of future data involved, maybe. It just depends on my attention span, which is looking pretty good right now.

DeleteComment: hahahahaha
DeleteI think the plural of gooseberry is geeseberry. So a gooseberry forest would be a geeseberry. (?)
DeleteI could change my name like Ozzy whereby I incorporate part of my last name as a first name, so I could be Bossy Boston. No, that sounds pushy ...
DeleteOr Bestin Boston although that might confuse everyone if you are not in Boston but you could be both Bestin Boston when you are, and Notin Boston when you are not
Deleteor you could be Best Notin Boston
Whoa... Spring? when what why how and ... um which? There is no way it's spring already. This means Mrs H is going to go nuts and make me clean things that have been hidden in boxes under bags in cupboards we didn't even know we had.
ReplyDeleteaaaaaaaaauuuuughghhhhhghghhh.... I hate spring cleaning.
Then again, i might find my driving licence and be able to go for a spin somewhere exotic like Southport or Hull.
Its OK Mr H it appears huge mountains of snow are due in the next couple of days so if Mrs H mentions Spring just look outside and say . . . . Surely that calendar is running fast. . . . .
