Snow

In this white glistening world we are living in what are we to do?
We can not get to work, the shops shelves are empty, no one has replied to your requests for christmas pressie ideas. I will just have to sit here and play on my computer till the sun shines and melts all this snow away.

More money for MP's

The 218 MPs who were either defeated or stepped down at the general election were entitled to payouts totalling £10.4m……..These are resettlement payments and in addition to pension and other payments. It is not known how many MP’s have claimed this money but l am sure it will be most of them. This money is on top of the £109,000 MP’s are entitled to for the rest of their life…not a bad deal that at our cost!!!!
Can I also suggest that a majority have stepped down because of the backlash of the MP allowances scandal? Or is that just me being cynical?
Well l hope the new government takes a good hard look at themselves before expecting the rest of the hard working population to lose money from their wages to bail out the country after the fat cats have all filled their pockets and flown the nest….

Been awhile since l last posted but l have taken a week of to catch some rays in the wonderful Greek Island of Zante.
What can I say the weather has been wonderful the welcome great and good food, good accommadation all making a fantastic break fro the normal world of spud.
No worries, well at least for another day and a bit, no pressure,good wine,sun and food.
All good in Spuds world.
Next week will be different here all the little darlings from school will be released on half term and will decend on all of the Med resorts with their parents spoiling the peace with their cries of Tarquin, Chardenay and Wayne shouted all over the resorts swimming pools and restraurants....God help us there memories so short due to copious amounts of the local brews and cocktails all their childrens names have to be tattooed onto their bodies just in case they forget.....
I have had a good week this week.....just in time...

Mmmmmmmmm

A man walks into a bar and the peanuts say "Oh, you look delightful". Then the fruit machine says "I don't think much of his hair".

The barman comes over and says "sorry about that the peanuts are complimentary but the fruit machine is out of order."

AT LAST

Well that time of year is here again when l get the chance to chill out for a week....it’s been a long time coming but tomorrow l am off to Zante for a week of well just chillin.
The only thing with flying away...and no l am not going to go on about carbon foot print surly that volcano has belched Co2 into the atmosphere for long enough now for my little trip to pail into insignificance no it’s the flying ........... hours of boredom only interrupted by minutes of terror .....Take off and landing.
Still l am not going to let that spoil my week.

Well whats up now !!!!

Recruitment ..... gone are the days when you can advertise a job and just interview people and choose the most suitable. We now have checks, passport checks, visa checks, work permit checks, residency checks and uncle Tom cobbly and all types of checks...thats without trying to get references back.....result another advert out next week........

Spare us a few pence guv........

Here we go just days into this new regime and we are off to a good start. They left us no money in the pot as they left and closed the door so how about everyone pulls together and gives us some more money to waste and squander.

You can trust us, we will get you all through this recession and after losing your home, savings, marriage and kids into slave labour you will thank us........

What for? Have l not trusted all the other Governments to look after my wages, savings and pensions?.........is it my fault that most of the people that have been telling me “you will have to tighten your belt “ been falsely claiming expenses for a long long time.

As we talk are there not plans to make 100 more peers of the realm…….why? do we really need more…now don’t get me wrong if you have spent a lifetime helping others and put yourself out in such a way that nobody else has l don’t have a problem.

Some people just get a peerage for stupid things that make no difference to peoples lives hitting a cricket ball and you where in the team to do what? Kicking a few goals in a net …we paid you thousands of pounds a week to do that.
The biggest mystery of all a fat slob that forgets his roots and called himself Deputy Prime Minister...What was his real job what did he have on Tony Blair to make him keep such a foul mouthed useless indiavidual in a cabinet posistion for so long?

The harder working you are the less you get…….end of .
