My day got better after the making of the will
I had found it rather sad to change my beneficiary, from someone I once would have happily left all of my lifelong savings and assets to. So much so that my solicitor who had originally overseen our will making, was sweet and thoughtful and timely with her tissue box..
But like I said, the day got better,
As days nowadays often do.
I met a friend for lunch then caught up with the affable despot which is jason who sent me this video via what's app, as he a want to do with viral gems
Now I may have to explain that " Bashing someone's back doors in " is a more lurid example of one of our British euphemisms relating to anal sex......
I won't draw pictures but The Despot cackled like a loon when I saw him, so ticked by the schoolboy humour of it all .
Jason and I are off to see some sort of Zombie theatre performance at Theatr Clwyd next week.
What fun.
Trelawnyd's full choir contingent was present tonight as Heulwen was back after her two months journey to Europe, so after a somewhat spirited and balanced version of Hallelujah ( the choir was so pleased that we had impressed Jamie with our singing) we ( , me Hattie and Heulwen) went to the pub to swap personal and village gossip.
We are arranging to see the sentimental Military Wives movie ( the one about the choir)
I think a filmed version of our choir would have been a better story, but then I would.
I know quite a few people who would like their back door bashed in by a fireman.
ReplyDeleteWho wouldn't!!!
DeleteWhat about a policeman to the rescue with a big truncheon ? x
DeleteFLIS!!!!!!!!!
DeleteJohn-I have such great respect for our local constabularly x
DeleteOh no. What a nightmare...
DeleteYou lot make me chuckle. Thank you for that it has been a very long and boring day. Glad you are getting sorted John and attending to the little things in life. And so very pleased your days are getting better. Now I am off to bed as it is blooming cold here Sweet dreams everyone x
ReplyDeleteMy days are a great deal better
DeleteI cry every time I see the trailer to Military Wives.
ReplyDeleteI often have a tear in choir so it's probably quite accurate
DeleteRe your last sentence - judging by your reports of your meetings and your pub jaunts afterwards - you may be right.
ReplyDeleteJamie wants to be played by Ewan Mcgregor
DeleteYou could start writing fantasy movie scripts.
ReplyDeleteI've written at least a dozen
DeleteThis year
And I'm not joking...ask me when u see me
And now I know something I did not know before. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteBack doors ?
DeleteLol
Sounds like you had a very good day indeed. I hope you left everything to my favourite cat, Albert.
ReplyDeleteYou have such a soft heart, things really hurt you. So sad for you. Maybe you left your worldly assets to Albert and the dogs? Or to you nephew in law Leo, a bit to the Revampd Flower Show...?
ReplyDeleteI hope things are ok , we are hearing reports of awful flooding in N Wales, of nursing homes flooded and so on. Streets awash and hurricane winds today? I hope the storm missed you.
lizzy
I don't think it's things that hurt John so much as it is things that simply touch his heart so greatly that it brings tears to the forefront!
DeleteWhen I first heard the song "Hallelujah" ... I cried because it just touched my soul so profoundly! A lot touches me so profoundly ... I get tired of crying!!!
I was referring to the will change not the choir song.
DeleteAwful flooding was confined to S. Wales. Some less awful flooding in N.Wales.
DeleteOur village will never flood it's too high up
DeleteSo is our house, thankfully, but the local town centre is prone to flooding when heavy rain works its way down from the hills and meets incoming high tides.
DeleteI'm glad you're all ok! I was imagining John helping to evacuate the hospice, pushing gurneys to safety with the flood swirling around his manly thighs.
DeleteSigh, this used to be one of the classier blogs! ;D hahaha!
ReplyDeleteFrom its trailer that 'Military Wives' film looks like yet another one with the same threadbare old formula (though based on a 'true story', but aren't they all?) - amateur choir with a performing standard beyond hopeless is knocked into shape by a doughty believer in their potential and.....they conquer the world! S'pose I'll be seeing it, but only 'cos Kristen S.T.'s there who, for me, can do no wrong. Perhaps there'll be a future film featuring the Trelawnyd choir getting a recording contract - and much, much more!
ReplyDeleteJason has an odd sense of humour. I don't find that video remotely funny. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteI would have snickered since I DO know what a back door is, but I had never know the term “smashing in the backdoor.” Remember the song “doo doo doo, lookin’ out my backdoor”? Hmmmm....
ReplyDeleteIt was actually new to me too, Mitch, though anyone with an ounce of imagination might have guessed on the interpretation it's being given.
DeleteKnown not know. Argh!
ReplyDeleteI am still of the mindset that I should spend it all and not leave anything behind.
ReplyDeleteMe too
DeleteGood on you sounds like a good day moving on and fun and games.
