I thought it a bit odd when Rod Stewert brought out a "new Album" not long ago. Well i mean come on he cant be short of a few bob even with all the Ex's he has tagging along. So proving that the old ones are the best ones he's at the number 1 spot with it being 34 years since his last one.
Another "oldie" has surfaced after a lot of people wondering where "it" was for years. A watch given to James Bond by "Q" in Thunderball has turned up at a Car Boot Sale and been snapped up for £25 its expected to fetch between £40k and £60k at auction. - - - Must visit the car boot this weekend lol!
A spine chilling story is told by a young Eritrean in this BBC Story He was held hostage for 7 months and a picture shows burns on his back and he tells a tail of torture and horror. Finally he is freed after his family pay a ransom but even then there's a twist to the story - - - worth as read.
The Daily Express has a headline telling us "House prices at record high" - - "cost of average home rises 5k in a month" I'm not sure where they get their information from as nothing seems to be moving around here and a house close by has been valued at £30k less that what it was bought for 5 years ago!
The PM is facing a revolt over his "Gay Marriage" bill, the grass roots activists are annoyed at being called goggle eyed loons, what is a PM to do? Well this Sky news story has the answer, they should all get a rise of between £10 and £20k! Its all the idea of a group calling themselves "The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority" I wonder who's running that then?- - - - - - -
The "Fun Factory" was its usual Monday self today not really busy but enough customers to make it interesting. We seem to be in one of those periods where lots of new items are being shipped in and others are being discontinued. Over the next few weeks then we will get lots of "oh look they are doing these again" and on the other side of the coin, "Why have you stopped doing such and such" hey ho.
Finally - - - The weather today was predicted to be thundery with hail and we have been scanning the sky hoping that we don't get either. I'm hoping to finish off bringing wood down from our logging area in the next couple of trips. We should then have plenty of time to cut down a few trees during the summer to replenish our run down stock.
