Attack Formation

Contact Lenses

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

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!

Product Design

I cannot believe today, it is about -120 outside, so I don’t want to go walking or do any work on the house, I am frozen stiff listening to some crap on the radio, and be bothered to get up and put my best of  Fleetwood Mac album on. Maybe I should get a hobby? Something like product design would be good.

Often while sitting about freezing I think of gadgets and gizmos I reckon would help me day to day.  Like a robot that will play my CD’s for me without having to get up.

Sounds great, although I bet I wouldn’t be so cold if I got up and actually started doing something J

Product design would pretty much cover anything I want it to, maybe I could come up with some life saving gadget, or the latest airport scanner to help check passenger luggage for threats, or simply an improvement to a shopping trolley, who knows the list could go on and on.

Baby Names

Having an odd day today been thinking about my three sons a lot, must be the time of year. I recall when they were born and having to choose baby names for me very difficult.  These days’ people choose baby names like Atlanta, Mercedes and Denver.  I don’t see the point!  Take the Frank Zapper family, one of his kids is named “Moon Unit” WTF!

It has been many years since I have seen my boys in the flesh; they have grown to make me very proud. Each of them is unique in their attitude towards life and this has been a blessing as this has resulted in each one of the boys growing up to stand firm for what they believe in.

You may be thinking I have gone soft and starting talking a load of old crocodile hat but at least I can rest easy at night that all three of them have a good old fashioned sensible name.

Back to normal tomorrow, must concentrate on getting my Christmas shopping finished. I really do hope that the courier doesn’t mess this up.

Just another driver down

tesoDuring my time spent abroad slaughtering the French, I had to keep my identity hidden, therefore I used to have two or three different names on the go all the time.  If I needed something delivered or had to send a letter etc I would never use my own name.

Although I’m now retired and live in the middle of nowhere I still have to keep my name and my past a secret.  This is right pain the arse when internet shopping, last time Tesco’s sent me my weekly they changed their driver and everything went pair changed and I had to take him out. Tesco’s did call a week later and ask where there driver was. I denied everything!

Basically I had managed to build a good relationship with the delivery driver (John), he would call my mobile an hour before delivery, I would leave the cash for him to take in a discreet part of the woods to collect and in return he would leave my shopping, happy days!  On this occasion John had a dental appointment so he arranged cover with his now buried co-worker.

Mr Co worker thought he would be a smart ass and hang around to see who I was, unfortunate for him knew nothing of me being a lethal assassin, the same second he clocked me approaching, he was brown bread!

I didn’t tell John of what happened, and I managed to make a few quid selling the Tesco truck on Ebay! HAPPY DAYS!
