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.
F1 Merchandise, Formula 1, Racing, F1
Jan 27th
I just had a nice little snooze after some yummy lunch and for some reason this years F1 season popped into my head. I can’t wait to settle down on Sunday afternoons and chill with a beer and some quality racing, so as I was in the racing mood I got online shopping for some F1 Merchandise
.
There really is some quality F1 Merchandise available from all the various manufacturers including scale models of the cars, hats, t-shirts everything for a raging F1 addict.
I love nothing more than getting a nice roast on the go, cracking open a few cold beers and then watching the F1 on the portable in the kitchen. I can’t wait to see if Button can defend his championship or if Lewis will return to the top. There has also been rumours that Schumacher will return for one final season on the track!
Reception Furniture
Jan 27th
After I had finished measuring up the windows outside I wondered in doors to settle down for the evening. On my way in one thing I noticed was my lack of reception furniture. I had a coat rack and a mirror on the wall.
I took a minute and pictured how I could improve the feel of the reception area. Maybe a small side table for my mail, notes and magazines etc?
I wasn’t really sure but then again why would a self respecting ex assassin worry about how his reception looked, maybe I was getting old. Either way, I looked through the Argos and little woods catalogues and found absolutely nothing. I spent two hours going round and round the IKEA website until I was dizzy. What the reception and the rest of the house needs is a women’s touch.
To be honest I am not in any rush to get any reception furniture just yet as I still have to strip the walls and paint everything else.
Dog Clothes
Jan 26th
OMG!
I was outside the house checking the windows and measuring up bits and pieces when I heard someone approaching. I quickly hid behind the chimney and kept looking to see who it was. Oh my god, I couldn’t believe what I saw! It was an elderly gentleman walking his K9 friend dressed in clothes!
That’s right dog clothes, never before have I seen an animal that had to be dressed in order to stay warm, I thought come on fella, it’s a dog, it has fur to keep it warm, it doesn’t need a jacket.
Anyway the guy passed by and I climb down to get some lunch. While I was enjoying my ham sandwich I checked my email and chuckled to myself about the dog, so while I had the computer on I did a quick search for dog clothes. Oh my god again! It’s big business there are tons of sites selling all sorts of items, everything from t-shirts and vests to ad hoodies. What is the world coming too?
Business Finance
Jan 21st
I got up this morning, had a nice cup of tea and I made my way down to my secret parcel collection point. It was a nice crisp morning, the air was cool and refreshing and I enjoyed what the birds had to sing as I tried not to rush to and from.
So I got my package and like a child at Christmas I just couldn’t wait to see my curtains. Also in amongst my letter was a circular with details regarding business finance. First I thought what good is business finance to me.
Once I had made it home I built the fire up and chilled for a while with a cup of tea and opened the rest of my mail. All I had was the usual boring rubbish, like free trial from lovefilm.com and the AA begging me to join their breakdown service.
For a while I thought what I would do as a business and looks at a few other websites offering business finance, maybe one day I’ll venture out and start something.
