Health Insurance
Apr 29th
Its been a lovely week and I have not touched any of my tools or anything DIY related for over 5 days now and finally I am getting to grips with my Health Insurance campaign.
I have spent far too many hours crawling through reviews, websites, reading the little snippets in back of news papers that offer too good to be true offers and then back on the net to check them out that I nearly threw my laptop out the window.
Health Insurance is big business and far too often there are companies that pop up every day and offer to cover “Everything” but do not be put off by this as there are just as many legitimate companies that offer realistic cover at competitive rates. My best advise is to take your time and shop around.
Boiler Breakdown
Mar 29th
Today was one of those days when I wished everyone and everything would just go away! I have recently been looking at sorting out my heating system and then suddenly I’m all over boiler breakdown sites looking for some help.
My own makeshift boiler that has given me years of faithful services has decided to give up the ghost and gone to copper heaven 
. Shame it took me ages to get it working right. It wasn’t the best boiler in the world but it was one that I had built with much sweat and tears.
Anyway I am sure I can use some of the copper and other bits and peices for another one of my brain storm projects.
Hacing already spent far to long on the internet today looking for boiler breakdown cover I decided to give it rest and go for a walk around the forrest, the suns out today and I could so with some sun on my helmet.
Wedding Venues
Mar 3rd
Well I know things have been a bit slow on here but I have been laid up on the sofa for the last two weeks with Woo Man Choo (Man Flu). I have been so bored with daytime television taking the place of my usual home improvements. All day long I have been watching programs on wedding venues, cooking and being fat. Not that I am fat, feel like cooking or want to get married.
Every mind numbing channel went over and over everything wedding related from dresses, honeymoons, wedding venues and everything else you associate with blowing a bus load of cash.
Cooking programs came out top viewing with various how to shows and competition based show like master chief, which I do enjoy. The only problem being watching all this foot on the box was making me feel hungry but I wouldn’t be bothered to cook, so I ended up watching programs about being overweight, this without doubt put me off of cooking.
Baby Names
Feb 16th
Hi Everyone! I didn’t tell anyone but I have been on holiday for the last two week so the blog has been a little neglected.
So here I am again, reading through a hundred or so emails. One is from an old friend up north asking me my advise on baby names. I haven’t heard from him in a while so it was nice to email hi back and see what he has been up to.
I hope he sees the importance of choosing his babies name, I cant stand it when these stupid celebs choose silly names like crouching tiger hidden dragon. Just be sensiable and chose a classic name like Peter, John, Mark, Luke will do, they are all saints and been have been around a while.
On the other hand you could choose a welsh name like “Teagan” which means “Good-looking/Beautiful” very nice name for a little girl.
Anyway I eamiled my mate back and just said that he should take his time and think carefully before rushing this important decision.
Party Products
Jan 29th
Today hasn’t really started too well and now I’m bored out of my mind, so once again I am staring at the interweb looking at mindless nonsense. Anyway I thought I should start getting a few things together for birthdays etc so I started searching for party products for the boys.
There are loads of party products to choose from, once site had absolutely everything! There were banners, balloons, napkins and much much more. I thought I would put together a big bag for each of my boys so when they have their birthday parties they would have everything they would need.
I hope it is worth it I couldn’t believe the checkout total, for some hats, napkins, and balloons and other bits and pieces the total came to £80 quid! They even gave me free delivery because I spent so much. Next year I think I will make my own stuff.
Not sure if today is going to end any better as my foot still hurts from that nail!
Contact Lenses
Jan 28th
I got up this morning, cooked some bacon with a little scrambled egg and then went outside to carry on with sorting my decking, that was until I stepped on a nail. My god, they were everywhere, maybe I should get some glasses or contact lenses?
I sat there with 4 inches of metal straight through my foot swearing the forest down. Some little critter must of knocked my tool box over as all me tools were spread out all over the place. Luckily for me it didn’t appear to have damaged any bones or tendons.
After my foot had stopped throbbing I thought maybe I should get my eyesite tested, I’ve never had them done before, not that I could wear glasses inside my helmet, I would have to opt for contact lenses, maybe I could get some of those contacts that have funky colours and make you look like your eyes are on fire.
