Life's so drokking fantastic because (the rebirth)

Also using my sleep deprivation to come up with RPG encounters to run for the family over the holiday. Multi-tasking!

It's probably a sign of the times in which we live that I initially wondered what kind of family fun rocket propelled grenade encounters you were planning...  The penny dropped eventually, I'm happy to say.

Who says your initial reading was wrong? Finally on the way home, 36 hours later, with a whole 12 hours til I'm due back for another 12. Happiness is the prospect of a warm bath and a cuddly woman.

Great day, England winning the rugby, grandchildren over and the lad turning up with lots of comics.

Statement came through from the electricity provider. I've been overpaying them massively for ages. I'm getting a refund of over £900 and have cut my monthly payments by two thirds.

Refunds are always good news - you've already factored in the payment month by month so it feels like free money - I hope you'll be spending it wisely on comics and action figures rather than frittering it away on mortgages or such nonsense!

Already got a mortgage. I have already used the promise of the money to get myself the Zenith Apex edition, but sadly the rest will go on boring stuff such a new fridge and decorating the flat.

Another episode in the ridiculous tale of the Yamaha Majesty I bought in January, I'm afraid.  It was declared engine-dead a few weeks ago, with no chance of sourcing a new engine, and yesterday I heavy-heartedly made a verbal contract with a breaker to let go of it and sell it for scrap.

This morning my dad, fair play to him, found a replacement engine.  The mechanic will now fix it instead of scrapping it. Thanks dad.  My scooter will rise again.

(Sadly, someone had to break his shoulder and total his own Majesty for me to get the engine, so I suppose the bike is more George Best circa 2002 than Lazarus circa 33.)

And now I've found a patch of land to live on, with water and electricity, for only  €1500 a year, ,in pretty much the exact location I wanted to live.  What's happening?  I've been lucky twice in two days.  Something's very wrong.

Bloody Hell, that's great! I'm happy for you, JBC, truly - it's not often that posts on this forum put a smile on my face, but this one has.

Delighted for you JBC.

The ruleof three means you must go on the pull immediately. It's required by macrocosmic law.

That's great news, JBC.

Very pleased for you JBC, they say things come in threes, so what's next?
