On Friday we received our copy in the post of City Life (a free newspaper for the residents of Chelmsford ;o)
James was reading through it and said that the Tour de France is going to pass through Chelmsford!
Just reading the BBC article I see that they are going to pass through Braintree and Epping Forest too ;o)
Perhaps while in Braintree they may pop into Freeport for some bargains ;o) But make sure you put locks on your bikes first in case they get nicked! And get sold on Ebay as "gen-ewe-ine tour de france memorabilia"
I havent been to Epping Forest since I was a kid when my Dad took us there, if I was one of the riders I would be worried about Dck Turpins ghost ;o)
I booked the panto tickets and they arrived Saturday, not only did the thieving b@stards charge a £1.50 booking fee but they also charged 60p for the postage too!
I know that I could have saved £2.10 by going to the box office in person but I really couldnt be arsed ;o)
Oh and it looks like I havent been picked as a giver this year for World Book Night - oh well...

she isnt even walking yet
I had an e-mail this morning from Clarkes advertising their shoes for babies from 9 months!
The range is called pre-walking! Are they taking the p1ss?
I really dont want to make Evie wear shoes until she needs to ;o)
And besides she still isnt crawling yet...

Im angry
I was just walking back from buying my lunch of half a lamb sandwich (my regular Friday treat), and there was a lady (who can only be best described as morbidly obese), walking with a friend towards me...
...needless to say she was having trouble walking.
There were these three jackasses in front of me and I could see that they were laughing about something as I was walking up behind them, then I noticed that one of them was taking the mickey out of the lady!
As someone who has previously been obese I was very angry, and almost said something to them but wussed out :o(

he was taking the p1ss
My train pulled in this morning with the lights off, this is no big deal because it starts from Chelmsford...
The train gets to Ingatestone and the lights still werent on, I glanced around and saw a few people with their newspapers on their laps where they werent able to read them. I was ok because I was listening to Mark Kermodes film reviews on my MP3 player ;o).
The train gets to Shenfield and the lights are still off and more people are getting on the dark train, even the platform guard looked on in dismay.
The train then pulls into Stratford (the last station before Liverpool Street), and the driver finally switches on the lights. There was a massive cheer of "finally".
I got off the train and saw some people sitting there working on their laptops, was it really worth switching it on for those few minutes, or were they working on them in the dark?
