How it is. Occassional thoughts, occassional moments, from a London gay man... 'A perfect day, a perfect night..' If only... I`m all fingers 'n' thumbs...

O neglectful me that hath not blogged for awhile!
Well the move was successful, Isleworth is FAR nicer than gloomy old Hounslow and i walk to work across the rolling parklands of the local national trust house at Syon Park and alongside the Thames. All very pleasant, when the weather is...I think i will get a bike when i get some cash together. Then i will be all bronzed by the sun and fit as a fiddle all in one!
I AM completely broke though, but hey it can`t be that bad. Once i get my deposit, or most of it back from the last place (CP Towers to those in the know), then i will be a bit more fluid finacially...
Jp is still lovely, seeing him later.. ;-)
Mands mum passed away last weekend, which is terribly sad. She had fought various forms of cancer for over 10 years. A lovely lady who i have known (along with Mands), almost as far back as i can remember. The funeral is on Tuesday, so i have booked a day off for that. Saw Mands last Wednesday, she seems to be coping well considering how very close they are.
Still haven`t totally sorted out my room, a couple of un-opened boxes to go yet, haven`t had alot of spare time this week. But generally it`s lots nicer (and much cleaner!), than the old place. The room i have is a bit bigger and more `user friendly` and i even have wireless broadband into the bargain, which is fab!
Someone burned the new Morrissey cd `You are the quarry` - it`s the best thing he has done in many years!

O BUGGER! .....and other tales.....

O Bugger! The week has been chopped in half with the realisation that i am now NOT going to get any more cash from my old job at FUCKIN` O.W.L. and that`s that! Which has caused me to have to consign my plan to live in my cutesy attic in Ealing to the dustbin of history.....BUGGER, balls, bollocks etc...
So having have to let that go, i was AGAIN potentially homeless (and 160 quid retainer gone with it! BAH!), and also now much less cash to play with to find somewhere new...
UNTIL the delightful Beccy from (new), said `I`ve a friend in Isleworth who has a spare room!`. Salvation! So now i am moving to a much nicer than Hounslow (where isn`t!?!). It`s only a skip round the corner to `The London Apprentice`, one of the oldest, nicest pubs in London that sits right on the Thames...gorgeous summer and winter alike...local gay bar too and it`s quite close to Richmond too...
So me FINALLY happy! :-)
Cornelio told me about this book called `Londons Disused Underground Stations`. It looks totally fascinating and i want it...Anyone feeling generous??
I see JP tommorrow!! ;-)
