With a name like that I reckon it's actually a brand new motorway service station just north of Knutsford. 🤣🤣😍

Isn't it funny how the mighty American military muscle that 'rules the world' has shat itself and leggef it for the hills because of a handful of unwashed 20something yoofs on the rob in a ford transit van.

I set a weekly 'how many job rejections can I get this week, target - have had another 8 fuck offs today. Go me. I really need to move before I go mentally, spiritually and financially under, but can't without a job and can't seem to get one of those because I'm stuck here. It's fucking brilliant.

Just been out to grab food and got stuck in the queue with a local racist. Her: "this town has gone downhill because of all the Muslims moving in" Me: "where are you from?" Her: "Essex" Me: "that's not Wales; you should go back to where you came from" That went down well. My work here is done.

And that "oh but she was a strong woman in a world of men" or "proved that women could be a PM" blah blah is bollocks. The only thing she ever did in the name of equality was prove that all politicians regardless of gender are capable of being hateful c**ts.

Rewatching The Crown. Now onto season 4 with Gillian Anderson playing Margaret Thatcher - forgotten how good she is in this and just how much I still hate MT even though she's dead. Its quite astounding how one person managed to do so much damage to our society and we're still stuck with the shit.

Fun fact: Did you kmow that 15 -18% of adults in England have literacy skills at or below Entry Level 3, which matches those expected of a 9 to 11-year-old child. So if you encounter any stupid bellends on here today, just smile, say "aw" condescendingly, and then poor yourself a nice glass of wine

Oh and had my haircut yesterday. Forgot to post it as per international law, so here it is. It hasn't grown a lot since leaving the barbers 15hrs ago so I think I've got away with it. My sincerest apologies for the delay.

Presenting my newly discovered violin practice room - a little 14th cen church in a village called Crickadarn. There are a handful of houses and that's it (except for the fuck off big Manor House on the hill opp which belonged to my great great grandparents). Ancestors everywhere I tell you...🤣

Have to say, only really bought this because I've always loved this album's artwork - love the album itself too but already have it on CD and figured vinyl wouldn't pick up the details in production in the same way (which is the makes it interesting to listen to). Got that wrong, it sounds AMAZING!

Well that was lush and one of those experiences that is a reminder that while it might feel like the world has gone completely to shit, it hasn't. Nice people outnumber arseholes a gazillion times over, it's just the arseholes are making more noise and the rest of us need to do more to shut them up.

It's Saturday which means another train adventure. Off to Shrewsbury - there's a Pride thing happening so a bit of gay spotting on the cards. I've packed my hat and some lippy just in case I end up getting married. Always good to be prepared. This must be what it feels like to be Bear Grylls.

Because I've made it to the end of another week in the hellscape... Fun fact: This bottle is from Aldi and cost the same as 1 and a half large glasses of wine from the pub. It's bloody lush and far more cost effective. Move over Martin; follow me for more money saving tips.
