Interesting that.
I honestly think I've mellowed the older I get. Things that I'd have been absolutely fuming about and would've done my head in as a youth are now met with a resigned frown, a few muttered curses and a shrug.

Every time there's high winds there's always a tin can getting blown up and down outside our house keeping us awake half the night, it never blows off down the road just rattles outside the house does my head in.
There's no way I'm getting out of bed in the middle of the night to pick up a can, because that's the time it always seems to happen.

Visit Symonds Yat for a walk. Car park owned by the forestry commission. Amidst the plethora of 'no this, no that, no enjoying, no scratching your arse' signs there's a single point for pay and display or pay via website details, 5 minutes walk from the car.
Website not working on account of no phone reception - its remote did you're in woods, who'd a thought. Despite this the wife tries for 10 minutes to no avail. I'm holding the hot pies we bought from a local butchers for lunch.
5 minutes walk back to the car to find a fiver's worth of effing COINS ONLY beneath the seats. 5 minutes back to the machine, 5 minutes back to the car to put the ticket in, 5 minutes back to the pay point to start the walk.
Our pies are cold now, we feel as though the walk has been done. Why are we putting up with paying to park anyway? I've been to no other countries so obsessed with milking the public to visit attractions created millions of years ago by nature ffs. Five effing quid to have your car sat doing nothing for a few hours.

I had a ledbury pastie - way, way better than any cornish pastie I've ever had - actually had meat content rather than peppered potato.
The missus had a cheese n onion pastie. I didn't get a taste of that as I'm getting old and slow and she eats pretty much in one gulp like a savage. She's from Swindon.
Say no more, nods as good as a wink, etc.

People who say they dislike loads of food so fussy eaters (not to be mistaken for people who can’t eat different foods due to illness)
i.e people who don’t like peas ...shovel them in what’s wrong with you?

We in Hull have now been told that designated Bus Lanes in the city will now operate more or less all day i.e. 0700 to 1830. That's a decision which has upset a good few drivers, and the local news often state that Liverpool has done away totally with theirs.
Thing I'm kind of fuming about is that the council say their decision is so that cyclists can use the lanes more or less saying it's cheaper than building cycle lanes.

It's a scary thought that within a few years I will start to have lived here longer than I have lived on the banks of the Royal Blue Mersey.

My eldest son got married in Hull, where his bride came from. There was a team from Hull who played in the Yorkshire League, so played football in Hull a couple of times. Done my bit!

I'll be honest and say here and now that if back in 1987 when I came here that I'd still be here I would have said no way on earth. But here I am, both lads grown up doing exceptionally well in their jobs and having given me grandchildren. Can't see me moving back now, no matter how many times I say it. When I come over to the match, I honestly wish I was heading for the tunnel rather than the M62 to make my way back home.
