December 2009.
Plenty has been happening in my household as we deliberated on the Supreme Court decision. I've jotted down some of the highlights.
Dec 20TH
It's starting to snow. The first of the season and the first we've seen
for years. The wife and I took out our hot chocolates and sat on the porch
watching the fluffy soft flakes drift gently down clinging to the trees and
covering the ground. It's so beautiful and peaceful.
DEC 24th
We awoke to a lovely blanket of crystal white glistening snow covering as far
as the eye could see. What a fantastic sight, every tree and bush covered
with a beautiful white mantle. A little robin darting across the blanket of virginal snow.
I shovelled snow for the first time ever and loved it. I did both our driveway and the pavement. Such a sense of well being and satisfaction.
Later that day a snowplough came along and accidentally covered up our driveway with
compacted snow from the street. The driver smiled and waved. I waved back
and shovelled it away again.
The children next door built a snowman with
coal for eyes and a carrot for a nose, and had a snowball fight, a couple
just missed me and hit the car so I threw a couple back and joined in their
fun and merryment.
DEC 26th
It snowed an additional 5 inches last night and the
temperature dropped to around minus 8 degrees. I make sure there is plenty of coal beside the fire.
Several branches on our trees and bushes snapped due to the weight of the snow. I shovelled our driveway again. Shortly afterwards the snowplough came by and did his trick again. Much of the snow is now a brownish - grey.
JAN 1st
It warmed up enough during the day to create some slush which soon became ice when the temperature suddenly dropped again. Bought snow tyres for both our cars £500. Fell on
my arse in the driveway. £100 to a physio but nothing was broken.
All the Christmas wrapping paper is lieing wrapped around the fence posts, the cats having chewed the bin bags open. The bin men did not call last week due to the snow. I spend quite a time, gathering it up. Bloomin cats.
JAN 5th
Still cold, bitterly so. Sold the wife's car and bought her a 4x4 to get her to work.
However, silly cow slid into a wall and did considerable damage to the right wing costing me £200.
Had another 8 inches of white ****e last night. Both vehicles are covered in
salt and iced up slush. That ******* snowplough came by twice today. Where's
that bloody shovel.
JAN 9th
More f*****g snow. Not a tree or bush on our property that hasn't been damaged. Power was off most of the night.
Tried to keep from freezing to death with candles and a paraffin heater
which tipped over and nearly torched the house. I managed to put the flames
out but suffered 2nd Degree burns on my hands. Lost all my eye brows and
eyelashes.
Car hit a f*****g deer on the way to casualty and was written
off.
JAN 13th
F*****g b*****d white ****e just keeps on coming down.
Have to put on every article of clothing just to go to the post box. The
little c***s next door ambushed me with snowballs on the way back - I'll
shove that carrot so far up the little pricks arse it'll take good surgeon 6
hours to find it. If I ever catch the ******** that drives the snowplough
I'll chew open his chest and rip out his heart with my teeth. I think the
b*****d hides around the corner and waits for me to finish shovelling and
then he accelerates down the street like Michael 'f*****g' Schumacher and
buries he f*****g driveway again.
JAN 17th
16 more sodding inches of f*****g snow and f*****g ice and f*****g sleet and god knows what other white ****e fell last night. I am in court in 3 months time for assaulting
the snowplough driver with an ice - pick.
Even the f*****g robin's dead, lieing on its back, bones getting crunched by a big F*****g seagull.
Can't move my f*****g toes.
Haven't seen the sun for 5 F******G weeks. Minus 20 and more f*****g snow
forecast
F**K THIS FOR A F******G LARK, I'M MOVING BACK TO LONDON
