One of my customers, a multi millionaire, has given me the secret to being wealthy in the UK... Start a limited company, making sure that it has no assets (those are in the name of another limited company), buy a lot of stuff on credit & sell it to the holding company at knock down price, or do whatever you want with it, and after 1.5 years, the company goes bankrupt & the creditors lose everything while you are left free to do the same thing all over again - bearing in mind that you will not be able to be a director of another limited company, for 5 years, but this does not stop you from restarting another company with your wife or kiddies....
And who said "Honesty does not pay"....
Where are the Teletubbies now?
One of today's most pressing issues, on Yahoo, was "Where are the Teletubbies now?" - http://uk.tv.yahoo.com/blog/article/462742/where-are-the-teletubbies-now.html - Well, here is your answer:-
Tinky Winky & Dipsy: Are an item and have been cohabiting for the past 6 and a half years (as Tinky Winky recently revealed in a HELLO magazine interview, "It was love at first sight, and the dipstick like antenna, sealed the deal") - They can be both seen at the local Tesco, stacking shelves & filling freezers. No more living the high life, but according to sources, they have never been happier....
Laa-Laa: Since the show ended, and after 3 years in rehab, concurring her demons & kicking her drink & drugs habit. Laa-Laa has renounced Satan, and after being born-again, has become a Nun and joined a convent in darkest Peru..
Po: Sadly, the same can't be said for Po - She was seduced by the bright lights of the big city, and promises of stardom, by the notorious Columbian drug cartel boss, Chavo Diablo (El. Chavo). And after a failed attempt at transporting 5Kg of pure heroin to the US (est.street value $500,000.00). Po was caught and sentenced to 15 years, hard labour, at the "Sing-Sing Correctional Facility", New York, where she remains till this day....

Mysteries of the McDonald Sweet Chilli Chicken Deli Sandwich..
As part of a healthier lifestyle change and a calorie controlled, low fat thingee - my son started to get the McDonald Sweet Chilli Chicken Deli Sandwiches, instead of the usual Big Mac, Fries & Milkshake Combos...
The only little problem is this, each time I buy this particular sandwich, it seems to be different to the sandwich I previously bought, there is absolutely no consistency... Today, we even had one made with the Big Mac secret sauce....

I ❤ Coleslaw - I ✱ Coleslaw
Coleslaw is one of those Salads that I like and hate at the same time... I shouldn't like the taste, but I do, and every time I eat it, I swear that I will never, ever eat Coleslaw, ever again.
Today I decided to make my own Coleslaw.... The recipe is as follows:
½ Cabbage
2 Carrots
½ Onion
4 BIG TBL Spoons Mayonnaise
1 SML Spoon Mustard
1 SML Spoon Sugar
Add to Taste:
Water
Vinegar
Salt & Black Pepper
Optional:
Grated Cheese

Shred, and mix everything - let it stand in the fridge for 2 hours & you will have a very delicious Coleslaw...
This is my actual Coleslaw...
Is it just bad luck, or built-in obsolescence? Gone Mad....
I bought my new washing machine back in March 2010 - And I bought a 3 year extended warranty as well (I couldn't afford the one with 5 year warranty). See. http://tvspongers.blogspot.com/2010/04/bad-timing.html
And true to form, a month after the 1 year anniversary, the machine died. So I contacted the good people at Hotpoint and told them the story, and they sent an engineer to sort it out - And I didn't think or write anything about it...
Last week, we had another problem, the washing machine just died (now 15 month old), no power, no life, nothing - So, and once again, I phoned the good people at Hotpoint, and they sent an engineer today...
He changed the motherboard, photos below....
So I ask one more time, is that fault by design or just another case of bad luck....

The third photo is a bit blurry, I was trying to take a photo without the man looking....

In The Attic We Trust...
Yesterday, I climbed up into the attic in order to store some stuff. I got distracted by a customer's mobile phone call, and during which, I managed to lose my footing and cause a bit of damage.
I got one foot and leg through the ceilings plasterboard, I managed to bang my privates on a beam, I twisted my ankle and my knee joint, I managed to bang my arms on the floor, I hurt my thumbs and hands in the fall, I banged my chest against the ladders, plus various other cuts and bruises, all over the place..
And you know when you are in pain, you just sit it out, don't do anything, curse and wait. So I sat down, with my leg still dangling down.
The almighty bang and commotion alerted the family, my son and daughter in particular. My son was shouting at me and telling me to get down now... As for my daughter, well, she found the whole episode very amusing and she could not stop laughing.
Apart from my pride, the hole in the ceiling, the twisted ankle and the few cuts and bruises, I think I coped very well, As for the customer, I told him the next day and apologised for abruptly cutting him off, and told him the story, he laughed, and I got a new order...
