Hahaha, that was what made oasis a good band. Everything sounded simple but not many could play that way. Graham Coxon of Blur is another totally underrated guitarist. His style is unique Agree - his solo albums are worth having. Better than Blur. Agreed on all points . I have 5 Coxon albums and I love em. Plus he plays every instrument and does all the artwork aswell.

I have just under 2 acres. It will take me a day just to clear the woods. I wish I had a vegetable plot right now.

Get one of the staff to do it man for gawd's sake ! That's what poor people are for ! They love digging and carrying and that. That's why the stink so much because they love messing around in muck. Personally I never lift a finger in the garden. You'll not see me with my rump up in the air weeding the croquet lawn ! Tell em to get it sorted and remind them that there's millions of Poles out there just itching to do their job for half the rate ! Bloody poor people , Give em an inch and they'll take a mile , the horrible skinny bastards. What ! ๐คต

The bad news about buying a brush cutter is that it delays me ordering alol of the parts for my amp.

If it was my woods I'd just leave the brush to get on with it.

Received a bonus today from my firm for showing loyalty through this hard time. Now ....this seems pretty fair until you consider that this bonus was given out to about 40 people . These 40 people have not been off sick or off self isolating since the covid19 thing hit the UK. The people who have had to have 2 weeks off because of mild symptoms to self isolate....the ones who've been very fairly allowed by the benevolent company to use some of their holiday allocation and receive holiday pay accordingly in week 2 rather than possibly spread the virus amongst the workforce got F#ck ALL !
Now I'm not naive and I knew that a small percentage of the workforce simply jumped on the situation to grab a free week at home. But it's a bloody tiny minority.
What message does it now give to any potential carriers of this virus when they wake up on Monday with a cough ? It simply gives the message that to protect themselves and others at work might cost them ! I called a tea break meeting tonight and suggested that all us recipients share out the bonus with everyone else just to show what we think of it. I got shot down in flames immediately by other bonus recipients. No way are they sharing anything even if a virus germbag looms. I'll add at this point that nobody working here needs a bonus in the grand scheme of things. There's no poor people if they're working here. It's just pure fucking greed ! Decency always loses out to a free beer obviously. It just show's that human beings are in the majority selfish arseholes. . I'm pissed off , incase you hadn't noticed. Or maybe I'm just too highly principled ? Sorry for the rant. ๐ I'll endeavour to return to my usual juvenile self in future.

Finished harvesting my weed bush, took me 3 days it was huge, legal to grow for personal use here, chewed the goo off the scissors, spent most of the day in a couch lock, felt like I had put the tip of my tongue in a jar of Vicks, the Sh#t even got stuck behind my teeth. 3 weeks into lock down cant play music as loud as I like, everybody at home, the complex is like a morgue it is so quite. My one immediate Gargoyle neighbour, and her repulsive mother complain if I even fart in the bath.
Been charging car batteries for the folks in the complex. We are not allowed to go out of the complex for a walk, walking the dog around the complex allowed, ever tried to pick up the poop from a Jack Russell who craps on the run. All the while he is tugging on the lead, and you are trying not to step in it, and get the plastic bag over the other hand to pick it up. Life is to short to even stop for a crap, bloody little Sh#t.

I used to walk a Jack Russell for a neighbour, he could be 100 mtrs away when he did his business, so always had to keep a eye on the spot where he'd been. Really miss taking him for walks, always brought a smile to my face.

I had a dalmatian that walked while it shat. I thought she was the only one that did it. We didn't pick it up though in those bad old days. Must be dead funny to watch Lemos trying to catch Jack Russell crap on the go with a poop bag that's bigger than the dog. ๐

Had a massive curry last night, 'Chef's Signature Dish' - couldn't finish it there was that much. Went to bed and as usual if I go to bed stuffed had my recurring dream where I am living in a haunted house. No big deal I'm used to that. Woke up at 0430.
Went back to sleep had another bad dream where I had to go and see a bloke about getting some kit fixed. For no good reason he's up on scaffolding so I climb up to speak to him and get paralysed with fear due to the height. There's this little gap in the planking and I think I'm going to fall through it.
Manage to get back down. Bloke makes a phone call and asks someone else what is needed for the fix. Then says to me you need this bar and shows me this little iron bar. So I pull out a roll of money which he just takes. I said hang on there's 500 quid there. He says yes, that's how much it costs. I say bollocks, the thing I'm fixing isn't worth that, forget it, give me the money back.
He says no, that covers my consultation fee. So I grab him and get the money back out of his pocket and walk off feeling really stressed. I'm walking past this shopping centre that has a pub in it and a mate of mine is on the balcony dressed as an admiral with one of those blue and gold baseball caps with the name of a ship on it like the yanks wear.
He says come up and have a pint. I'm going to but suddenly I feel like Sh#t and can't breathe. Then I wake up and I'm lying face down with my face in the pillow, no wonder I can't breathe.
Funny thing is though, I actually feel like I had a good nights sleep. F#ck knows what was in that curry.

You're obviously stricken by a very common malady. Utter Lunacy. It can easily be cured by stroking the back of any Yorkshireman called Ivor ,and giving him a thousand pounds.

I thought that was leprechauns not Yorkshiremen? I suppose it amounts to the same thing.
I forgot to mention the bloke on the scaffolding was Tristram's dad off of 'George And Mildred'.

Have some compassion, got one dicky leg, two useless arms, and a bit of a belly, as we say in Afrikaans, "Lag vir jou gat jou etter", you work that out.

500 quid for a consultation that sounds very much like the hifi shop tax..

If I had 2 acres I'd get sheep onto it. You never see long grass when there's sheep about. A bit like robot lawnmowers only they don't need charging and you can get wool off them too.
As it is I've got about 20 square feet. And its paved. I salt it too so nothing grows in the gaps.

The rest is woodland, where I canโt use a mower. I looked at Robotic mowers, and they need a guide cable placing around the land they will operate in. That will take forever.....

Ooooh 5000 sq mtrs. . That's 70 x 70mtrs + a little bit. Yes I realised you wouldn't have 2 acres of lawn, but even so too much gardening, maybe just taking care of would be a better description, for me.
