Think I may have found a help service for us all when things get too much at the CCS.... Let me know if anyone wants the number
Live music tonight (Who Tribute band) & some lager to ease away the angst of watching that rabble.....and thankfully not again for 4 weeks
My car broke down so had to get the ‘Magic Bus’ back home and sat next to some lass called ‘Baba O Riley’ who said she’d been waiting since ‘5.15’ so I said ‘who are you’ and she said ‘I can’t explain’ why ‘I can see for miles’ but ‘you better you bet’ that ‘I’m free’ now to get off but if she wanted we could ‘join together.’
Weather definitely taken a turn for the worse in cheshire. Temperatures only down to seasonal averages but feels a lot cooler than of late. And the rain....... Daughter's collies and our hell dog seem impervious to it. Hell dog has a short coat but the collies are long haired. Utility room and kitchen floors getting in a right mess. Fortunately they are tiled so easily cleaned. One of the collies has taken a liking to hell dog's bed. Now Ben is a big dog in a small body, but his bed is definitely for a small dog. Sam doesnt seem to mind though. Its more suited to Ben, its owner.
And a Rhondda boy don't you know. Very proud of his roots is Mr Whitehouse. His mother was an opera singer. He's also a very keen angler.
Yes, seen his programmes with Bob Mortimer. Very relaxed low key and amusing viewing. Bob has been very ill lately. I always thought him funnier than Vic Reeves. Mrs BfB and I went to Wimbledon (tennis not football) a few years ago. Always good for bumping into famous people. We were walking towards the main entrance when I saw a guy I recognised. I nudged Mrs BfB and said, "Look its.......". At this point Paul Whitehouse looked at me and smiled as he thought I was going to say his name. Unfortunately I totally blanked and couldn't remember it. Totally embarrassed I quickly ushered Mrs BfB through the gate. He must have thought "What a to$$er"!!! Others walked past there include Terry Wogan (he was alive then), Ille Nastase, Alistair MacGowan - I gave him the thumbs up and he returned the favour. Most miserable one was Stato from the Skinner and Baddiel football shows. A few guys started chanting "Stato, Stato". Instead of waving or just acknowledging he just got his head down, turned and walked the other way. Miserable git. I could have changed history. Passing a players door to Number 1 Court. A guy walked out who I recognised. I said to a bloke next to me "Is that Federer?". He confirmed. Now if I had kicked Federer's legs from under him and pushed him down the steep concrete stairs tennis history could have been so different.
