    Oh no!  I wake up crying and really hate myself for doing this because I never seem to be able to lift my mood when I do.  So I lay there wallowing in the unfairness of it all and the dog licks away my tears.  I would like to think it's because he knows I am miserable and upset but the reality is the poor little thing is absolutely busting for a pee and probably a poo and  I realise I must get my fat ass into the shower…

    The weather in Middlesbrough is just awful but I suspect it's cloudy, windy and rainy in just about all parts of the UK today!  Walked the Rockstar down to Mumsy's for breakfast (the dog's not mine) and Gordy was still in bed.  He is going to the hospital with Dougy this morning as Dougy is going to get the results of the nine…

    BB has continued to upset people.  She has tried to infiltrate (believe me there is no other word for it) my brother's friends and…
