  1. I,m just a bit hyper mate couldn’t stay in the same place for a week, that’s why I,m getting a motor home this winter when the prices drop again
  2. Did have mates when young but when you come home from school and find your house packed in the back of a van and family waiting to go because we were moving again you kind of get used to not getting to attached, done lots of fighting and thieving there’is always a pecking order and when your the new kid all the time you start at the bottom but totally agree with the second part and have spent months of my life driving my children to everything I possibly can and will do the same for the grandkids
  3. Why not just get a large poster on your living room wall turn the heating right up and stare at it for a week be cheaper but just as exciting

  5. Have a meeting later on today with some film makers they are typical city folk but as the documentary they are making is in Glastonbury they have chosen the legendary roger Wilkins cider farm for a meeting things could get very messy I,ve drunk this gear all my life and am aware of the dangers but I can see a few people spewing out the nose by the end of the meeting lol
  6. Bit of a loner me have a few reliable good mates but spend 95% of my time on my own and got much worse in my older years I used to walk out of school at PE lessons unless it was swimming, guess a lot of it was down to my parents never trusted my old man and never had any form of encouragement from my parents just put out on the street from around 12 to get on with it so was probably the reason I learned to look after myself and not trust others, my own kids are all much more rounded because I encouraged them to take part in as many activity’s as possible girls did gymnastics netball hockey kic
