Wednesday 22nd February 2012.

  A dull looking day greeted me as i peered through foggy eyes out the bedroom window,still at least its warm,only 5 deg c today,and this is good as i am thinking of getting crops in soon and seed germinates at 5c.
 Robin had missed the school bus and we think it may have been deliberate,so we dropped the 3 hooligans off at mere school ,Mrs Bevan was pleased to see charlie in a happy mode,Ben and jack took themselves in.Quick trip to gillingham and robin was sorted,seemed happy enough.
  Home for a spot of break fast and then i finished cutting my adapted soon to be hammer adze,managed to blow the grinder up,smoked a bit too,very disappointed as i haven't the cash to buy one due to the small fortune we are spending on the car,hey ho......
  Once at Sutton veny the chap fitted the new part for us as well as a couple of bulbs,apparently the ball joint wont pass or the rear brake light so those jobs are for week Tuesday,so far:
rear brake discs and pads : £140.00
2 front tyres:                       £107.00
air meter:                            £145.00
failed MOT                         £57.00
6 months road tax:              £118.00

and near £600.00 is a hell of a cost when on the dole,and possibly a furthur £300.00 to go!not happy chappy.We are eating crap and really struggling with this cost,weeks shopping for 6 of us is down to £40.00 and just enough petrol to do the school run....maybe,electric is a joke i recon we have 6 days worth when theres 7 needed,still we love a challenge,i recon there will be some poaching needed this week.
  Still pacakes were a success! kids had 6 each and now have a sugar rush.sarah read a story at the school today in bens class,i recon she is very brave.
