'you get what you pay for' - how many times have people said that? well, of course, you bloody do! take my toilet paper... please! a nervous peek down the supermarket aisle reveals a grand canyon of the stuff.  it ranges from three inch scented quilted automated non-scratch paper that only requires a zap with the remote control and it gets on with the job while you decide whether or not your toe nails need trimming;  to the bargain basement variety which is so thin you can pull faces...

saturday - the last day of the week. a chance to put things right. do the things which we ought to have done. and apologise for the things we ought not to have done. and make our plans for the new week which starts tomorrow. well, it's either that or go to the supermarket.   Comments Read Full Story

fri-day ... so called because it is the day upon which people with moustaches (and that's just the women) put on grubby aprons, fire up the pans, and serve fish and chips. sat - ur - day ... so called because right! well! i think that's just about it for now. i couldn't think of anything to write about saturday. and friday was bad enough. thanks for reading this ... sorry.  that was such a bad blog post, it's embarrassing. but at least i tried. a bit.

the monthly meeting of the clumsy club began with the usual mayhem. i dropped my ceremonial mace on the secretary's foot and as he reacted to the pain he fell off his chair and landed in the treasurer's lap. it took me some time to separate them - not sure what was going on, but only three minutes later they were both smiling stupidly and asking for a cigarette to share. anyway, my monthly report revealed several minor injuries - scratches from shaving, a graze on the forehead where i walked...

this blog post started off as a sort of white square with nothing in it at all. then i began typing on my computer and all these black lettery things began to appear. then i pointed an arrowy thing over a little box called Publish, and suddenly the whole world, the universe, and even people in bognor regis, could read the black lettery things. we should never take blogging for granted. it's all a bit of a miracle, really, isn't it? i only wish i'd done it justice by writing something...

my next and long-awaited (by me...) stage appearance will be as doctor john hall in 'the herbal bed' by peter whelan. it's an interesting play based on the strong rumours of the time that shakespeare's daughter susanna (my wife) had an affair with a villager in stratford.  the play builds on the rumour and delivers the writer's own account of what might have actually happened, and how the people involved coped with it (ie covered it up)... it's on towards the end of october - so now busy...

i just wanted to officially announce that i washed the car yesterday, thus avoiding the stigma of doing it on a sunday like everyone in suburbia (which is just a few miles outside bognor regis). i admit, however, that i did use an old pressure washer thing, which produced such a powerful jetstream that i couldn't resist rinsing a curious wasp.  and i found an old brush attachment that was very handy, not just for cleaning the wheels, but for doing under my arms later. then, inevitably...
