Orbiting the Dance Floor!


I was at a a wedding dance last night. The wedding actually took place a while back, but for certain reasons, which I know nothing about, the dance was held off until yesterday. Anyway, on this occasion the kids were staying with their granny, allowing us free reign to consume copious amounts of alcohol, which we (I at least :-}) proceeded to partake of! In fact I probably drank more last night than I have anytime for several years.

So was I ill? Not at all! Was I drunk? Well, oddly I felt more drunk when I got up this morning than I did last night! So, all in all, it was a good night. I probably chose the wrong day to do this, but today I've been trying to set-up a digi-box I got from someone, because our old one had started playing up, freezing and getting stuck on certain channels. It was becoming a pain! So, I've got the new box in, but it looks as though I have to move the dish, because the card that came with it is for a different sattelite. My dish is conveniently located about 12 feet up the side of the house, so I'll need a ladder for that! I did buy a special little tuning gadget several weeks ago, having forseen this occasion well in advance. It was £3 from Lidl. I don't like Lidl, but sometimes they have some interesting things on sale.

To be honest with you, I am starting to get a small hangover, but nothing a spot of lunch won't remedy. I might have to call a man with a ladder in this afternoon to assist in repositiong my sattelite dish, but hey, that's what daddies are for right? Of course he'll want it reciprocating in some way that will mean he gets more out of it than I do, because that's how he operates. No doubt, there's some small painting job at the parents house, with my name on it!
