Enter the Void....

October 2006
IN October, my OH had a lot of hassle with the bank, as someone tried to use her card details. Actually the banks were very good. I had more hassle at work with a parent who decided I was wrong and he was right and I got more than I bargained for when I went to Brighton.
IN the news, Madonna got in trouble for adopting a baby (transcript here) and the one day in History was launched on the BBC, but I wasn't able to post a comment!

It bloody won't let me make an entry

And the Numberwang craze swept the nation!

November 2006
IN November I started Christmas shopping and I, stupidly, deviated from the list. I started missing my old job, but I got an outstanding on a lesson observation. Not so great news for my OH as her Sister in law died and she took her first drive down to Exeter to be with her brother.
In other news, Girls Aloud released 'Something Kinda Ooh' which I managed to successfully translate and the devil arrived in the form ao a Satanic Steed!

I can't believe that we are going to draw this match (Liverpool v Chelsea) because of that Bad decision by the Ref. Giving a Penalty when Malouda clearly just wanted to ignore the ball and bump groins with Finnan! How Aggravating.
And I blame myself. I missed the beginning of the match and came in half way through the first half and we were one nil up! My OH said "You know what's going to happen, as soon as you start watching it you're gonna lose!"
"Don't say that. I may never watch another game" at which I saw her rub her hands and give an evil cackle.
"What?"
"Nothing" she said.

Oh well, at least it was a draw, and we're not Man United!

I'm cold! And it is the middle of August!
I was thinking just the other day that I don't remember August being this cold- cold enough to have the heating on- but when I was looking over my old pasts from last August I came across this post written on 23rd August 2006.

It is the middle of August.... so why am I cold???? I have had the heating on a couple of times this week. Still I prefer cold to hot!

So perhaps it is just my imagination thinking that Augusts are never cold. I predict I will be saying the same thing in August 2008!
