Damp squib


Had to laugh yesterday,  watched as the locals spent all day building the bonfire on the  field,   as it chucked down at same time.  Needless to say the bonfire was a bit of a washout, usually it goes on for hours, but not this year, it was all done and dusted by 8pm.  I'm not being a meanie, I love fireworks, I just hate those that just go bang, and do so very loudly.  Give me an organised display any day.  All the kids round here do is let off bangers.  Thought we may get more tonight, but nope,  aside from a few feeble bangs, it has been very quiet.  As was Halloween,  thankfully,  I don't mind anyone having fun, just object when the yobs start vandalising cars and property.  According to the local rag some 40 youths were arrested on Halloween for damaging cars.

Another yucky day weather wise,   a very grim and grey day.  Nowt else to do but stay put,   did a spot of shopping and that was it.  Hoping for better weather tomorrow,  may be tempted to go out and about.   All depends on knee, wasn't too good last night,  very sore in fact.  Not sure if it is the cold weather.  Just remembered that this time last year I was finally allowed to remove the knee brace, boy was that a relief!   Been a very funny year...    and very sad at times.   Yep life is never boring, it always has a surprise in store.

Enjoy your weekend.
