So tonight what is in our news in the UK? London zoo. An 18-year-old
gorilla smashed through the glass and ran around for 25 minutes. Thankfully he
was caught and is safe. We didn’t shoot him. Thank God. Thing is, he is
eighteen, so when we are that age in the UK, we get a key to the door. Gosh,
gone are the days when we gave kids a key at eighteen? More like eleven now.
Anyway, the gorilla just wanted his key. Smile,
I also read about a man who went into an electric shop and
looked at the televisions. He went to push a button on the TV when it fell
backwards. As the TV fell, it banged into another one knocking that over too.
The customer stepped backwards in disbelief backing into another TV making that
fall causing that one to smash into another. £5000 later, I guess he left the
shop?
Rapper Coolio didn’t turn up to court after trying to get a
gun on a flight. Really, they should jail him. To even try to do that? If that
was just a quotes normal person, they would be in prison now surely? Why would you
want a gun on your flight? I love or loved his music, but after reading this, I
don’t like the man now.
So spiders don’t have ears, but they know when you are on
your way towards them. Their tiny hairs can detect movement sound up to a few
meters away. Tonight I was watching a dog who is being trained to smell cancer.
They say that dogs can detect cancer in a person long before the medics can.
They showed the dog doing his training, it was amazing.
So that roughly is some of our news, not going into the
politics or nasty violent news. We don’t need it. I think everyone needs to
chill and escape the headlines for a while. Why don’t we all try it for a few
days? Until Monday? I am sure that people would be much happier if they didn’t
watch the news. I mean, when we go on holiday, we don’t watch TV do we? And it’s
so much better, we are oblivious to the worlds crazy crashes.
I ordered some new books on my kindle today. I really want
to get into reading again or in my case listening to the book, as my kindle
speaks as probably yours does too, if it’s a couple of years old or more
actually, gosh, thinking about it, I think my kindle is about five years old. I
never listen to it though. But now the winter is coming, the fires are burning,
the crisp nights are hear, I fancy a hot chocolate and kindle night every few
days, question is, will I be able to listen to someone else talking to me, and
me having to listen to every word she says? My mind is so active, even when I
was studying I never could concentrate. I was always thinking about my next
move whether it be what is for dinner, or what will I wear tomorrow, or more in
depth words whizzing through my world of Fifi land.
Still came out with A’s though. Hahaha. Same as Teen he
hated lessons, but got great results. Could have done much better if only he could
focus, but he has my brain, it was funny during dinner tonight, Teen said
something, and as he said this thing, both him and I thought about the same
thing at the same time exactly. Now some would say this is normal as he has my
genes but this subject was something that no one I know no one would have ever
thought about at the same time like we did.
We do this a lot Teen and myself. He even notices it. We just seem to
click.
Gosh, he had to write an email to someone before for another
person. You should have heard the English he used? I know when he applies for
jobs he shocks me just how smart he is, but this email was as if Hub had
written it. Teen has had a good role model in Hub that is for sure. Though his
Dad has not helped him much with his homework over the years, I can count on two
hands how many times he has helped him. Teen is very independent and whenever
Hub offered to help him, he always said he was OK. Though it was Hub who teen
came to if he had any work he needed help with.
He is up again tomorrow at half five. It’s eleven in the
evening and he isn’t home again. He is for sure burning his candle at both
ends.
Not sure about hubs day he was really tired when he got in
so I didn’t ask him, but I know that LF was full of himself and today he met
with his trainer. LF’s trainer. Apparently he went mad when he saw her. He was
a year when he was trained and was with her for four months. So a year and a
half ago but still remembered her and out came the paw and his little ways
kicked in to show off to her.
A strange day, a very odd phone call and some kind words
from true friends who are my family. I love them. And some great news Hub and I
are off in a couple of weeks to see our besties. My friend Julie also is a
Grandma again. Her new baby has a very lovely name but, thing is, they are
shortening it and the ending of the name is the same as the surname. So it
sounds really well, different, if not comical, and it’s a shame because the
name if left alone is lovely. I hope she will be visiting us soon too. She
lives about two hours on the train from us.
Hub is playing the piano at church soon as well.
I don’t know what is wrong with me tonight, I’m starving. I
wonder if it’s because it’s so cold? I just want four slices of white toast.
With lovely butter on… Firstly I don’t have white bread and secondly I don’t
buy butter. I buy in my opinion the best spread called clover. It’s delicious.
Gosh you know in the UK we have fireworks on the 5th
of November? Well Teen was looking at the price of a display and it’s for the
two of them too. He asked me to guess how much? I thought of the last one I
went to some years ago. It was £7 each. So I added on some money and said
twenty for both. He replied. No Mum, it’s £30
What? That is a rip off. It’s so dangerous to have them at
home, though loads do, causing extra work for not only fireman, ambulances and councils,
but hospitals and so on. So why not make it so that the places are less money
so people can afford to go, rather than buying some dodgy displays from China
for their front garden?
As for Halloween, Teen and Shamrock are going to a fright
night. Oh my word. I will tell you about that later on. You will be terrified
when you hear what goes on. But even for that, it’s £40 for the two of them. No
food by the way. Whatever happened to ducky apple and a witches hat with a bit
of glue and some sticky paper? Haha.
Other countries who joined us today apart from the ten I mentioned
before are, Pakistan, Norway, Jersey, Hungary, Portugal, Island and France.
Until tomorrow with love. If it’s night time wherever you
are, some words before I go.
