Today has been.....

Freya struggling with a remarkably short spoon
Lovely, We took Freya down to Pendine for a rather chilly day out at the beach and we forced her to eat ice cream ... it was bizarre because at our house it had been blisteringly hot but we got down to the beach and it felt like an we had walked into a freezer.... and of course we were dressed completely inadequately in t-shirts and shorts..... the picture doesn't show you how cold it was ....

We had to escape Xbox boy and his girlfriend it seems we have had a stream of teenagers staying at this house since the holidays started and although once or twice is ok it does get a bit wearing you feel as if the house is being dumbed down with inane conversations and irrelevant and remarkable unfunny humour.......


Pendine Beach
It's not made any easier that Xbox boy seems to think he is on holiday along with everybody else (no he is in the same boat as me... I haven't stopped looking for a job once!!!) and has done very little towards finding a job, he seems content to kick back on his unemployment benefit....Well he's in for a shock once the Easter holidays are over.... I really can't be bothered with him or his attitude at the moment but StalagLuft 17 once again opens it's gates Monday of next week and abandon hope all ye who want board and lodging....

We gave him Duran Duran a few weeks back he hasn't even opened the door on it yet... although he did perk interest the other day and asked if I was going to transfer the car to his name which I said I would.... even though I was just a tad suspicious about his motives....(there is ALWAYS an angle with Xbox boy).....seeing as he hasn't even looked it over since we said he could have it..... Well it turns out his sister said a few of her friends had expressed an interest in it for a few hundred quid.... bingo that's the reason he wants it in his name.....

He needn't concern himself over the V5 though.....because that isn't going to happen..not on my shift....... he can have it transferred into his name once he passes his driving test and not before, that way he won't be so keen to get rid of his only method of transport for a swift few hundred.....it has no value to him at the moment (except what it's worth cash wise) because he doesn't have a licence, that will all change once he gets one......I know what's best for him even if he doesn't.....

I have no desire to line his pocket with a few hundred quid I'd rather it rot where it stands to be honest than do that..... We gave him the car thinking it would spur him onto a little independence but no..... he's upstairs now as I speak twitching his thumbs to some mind rotting shoot em up on his Xbox.....

Make no mistake......
