VISITING

 WEDNESDAY - The funeral service for the lady who works nights cleaning theatres is next week on the 28th she is getting buried near to the house Helen and I bought years ago on the Green Hills  when we first stated out together I am so glad we don't live there anymore as most parts of the inner city have . The house had a massive kitchen dinner with patio doors opening on to the back garden we also  renovated the bathroom the only thing left to update was the front bay windows .To this day I don't think the windows have been touched , they were on the way out when we lived there fifteen years ago .

THURSDAY - Received a hand written letter from my son Helen told me I would have contact from him last week she rightly predicted it be on the 20th or 21st I received his letter on the 21st she was 100% accurate .The letter was from Prison he is back inside I have requested a visitors pass for Saturday 30th of March at two in the afternoon I am visiting him with Helen lets see what excuses and new promises he has thought up to excuse his bullshit previous promises that he made about behaving staying clean  and going straight getting into work  and getting his life back on track it never happened I honestly don't think it will happen this time round  , but I will be happy to be proven wrong .

Watched the Bob Marley film "One Love" I remember Bob dying I heard it on the radio I was devastated I was upset for weeks the death of a legend he was my favourite artist of the time  I had his last six albums his Legend albums has been in the U,K charts for the last 26 years 1370 weeks and off course there is Ziggy , Stephen and Damion keeping the music going .I enjoyed the film .

I have the entire series of Guy Ritchie's "The Gentlemen" to watch as well as Road House and The Walking Dead "The Ones That Live"..

END OF GAME FINAL CHAPTER

 Have been playing Wolfenstein New Order I have advanced quite a way through the game there was a couple of points I struggled on and was not sure what I had to do next but I battled on killed the Nazis and continued on .The only trouble I have is I tend to get motion sickness when I stop the gaming I play propped up on the bed on a Samsung 55 inch wall mounted tv so I don't know what the issue is .


Doctors aren't sure exactly why video games cause motion sickness. They think it might have to do with mismatched messages about movement that the brain gets from the eyes and inner ears. Liquid in the semi circular of your inner ear  allows you to sense if you're moving. But the brain can get confused if your inner ear senses that you're sitting still while your eyes see the action on the screen and tell the brain you're moving. That may leave you feeling sick, dizzy, or drowsy.

The lady who retired sadly passed away early hours of Saturday morning wouldn't it be  a great gesture from the U.K government if the gave the family some cash from the pension she will never claim one penny from for them to give some cash from the pot back to the family to  pay for the cost of her funeral, She paid her taxes and national insurance the government keeps the lot as she has no living husband ,The game of life has finished the final chapter ended my she meet the final boss up in the sky .

LIFES A BITCH DEATH IS WORSE

 MONDAY - No good crying it's back to work this evening never mind can't be happy forever no rainbows with out rain .

We had a lady working on nights she has been doing her shift twenty plus years a couple of weeks back she retired she left with a moderate lump sum and weekly pension from her works pension fund .

This week she has been diagnosed with untreatable cancer ,  this Saturday God willing she will go home for palliative end of life care she has days and hours rather than months and weeks her life change from thank you Lord to why me life isn't fair but sometimes we do question is there a God and why .

I know many don't even make retirement age but she had crossed the winning line only to find out its her last race ever to say a lot of people at work are sad is an understatement . Don't make big plans for when you retire make plans for this week next month but don't look too far in to the future no one is guaranteed one .
