    Why don't I admit it, I only looked in here to procrastinate on some work I don't want to start.

    And this post is killing a few more seconds.

    I may make myself a cup of coffee now. Then I'll have to sit calmly and drink it. Then I'll have to finish the chapter of the book ("The inimitable Jeeves", since you asked) that I'll be reading while I drink.

    Then I may have to clean the skirting board behind the fridge. It's on my mind that it might need doing.

    Than I can start the work.

    Unless something else comes up.

    I've got the fence men in. I'm trying to pretend their not there but at the same time I want to know what they are doing. It's very quiet. Desperately want to peep out the window but don't want them to think I'm watching them....even though I would be. Curiosity is killing me.

    I never watch workmen.....if things go wrong, they will probably rectify it. Don't want to worry unnecessarily. Go and offer a cup of tea if you are curious.

    Right....got my tickets for Espanyol and Everton. Gave up on phoning (even though I wanted to ask about concessions) and went on line....turns out they have already listed me as over 65:headbang: Could have least have put 'but doesn't look it' in brackets. :(

    Never put off until tomorrow what you can put off until the day after.

    When I go through the gate I expect to be challenged by those stewards who watch out for cheats. 'Madam, you cannot possibly be 65.' Or I will sulk.

    I stopped getting Id'd when I was about 17. Beards add a lot of years. My Niece thinks I'm at least 100 whenever I've got a bit of a beard going on. Also, I know there is a lot of twatbeard hate on here, but I can actually grow a beard unlike the patchy thing on Lallanas face. I've had one on and off since 17.

    Don't worry. If he'd had no beard at all, he'd have just been called "Twat"

    The beard just give us a different angle.

    2 years married today. And I'm not even old. Feels like about 15 minutes.
