annanotbob2's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Laters Well we still have the same fuckers in charge but I really hope we're edging slowly and inexorably towards change. It's possible that he's finally shot himself in the foot though, with one lie too many, revealing unspeakable arrogance. A few weeks ago he was stating quite firmly in the House that there were no parties. Now it turns out that the official No 10 photographer took photos of him at his birthday party in June 2020, when we were still in lockdown and not allowed to visit each other indoors at all. How can he know there are photos but still stand up and lie, assuming everyone will stand by him and lie for him. Which, to be fair, they have done so far but now there's a steady trickle of rats leaving the sinking ship. My hope is that because so many of them have lied for him, supporting him in breaking the law, his own laws that have been applied with full force against members of the public, that the whole fucking Tory party is discredited and will be fucked off into the political wilderness for many, many years to come. I mean, it's not a very plausible outcome, given that his government have made life even better for the filthy rich and all our papers are owned by billionaires, so spins will be spun to distract us and who knows where we'll end up. Fuckers. They're all fuckers. In other news I've finally had contact with the clerk of the cemetery and it turns out it will cost £740 to have Sam's ashes interred in that cemetery, which includes digging the hole, having it registered for fifty years and maintenance of the plot and whole area, but not for the stone, which we have to supply ourselves. For a cremation plot it's a flat stone a bit bigger than an album cover, but she said they're hard to come by at the moment as most of the stone is imported and Brexit has fucked all that right up. None of which matters that much - it's expensive, which I hadn't considered but there's a few of us who can all chip in a few quid and we're not in any great hurry, having waited two and a half years before even thinking of it. Tomorrow I'm taking Grandson to have a look, so long as he doesn't test positive. His girlfriend has Covid again, not too bad, and under the current slack as fuck regulations he doesn't have to isolate at all unless he tests positive so I'm going along with it, masks on in the car and windows open, just in case. That's the plan, at silly o'clock. we'll have to see. Today I am grateful for having the sense to see that I was still tired, so I didn't have to go to the museum art group, but did a painting at home instead. I could have done with some advice, but not sitting in rush hour traffic at the end of the class was good. 1:25 a.m. - 05.02.22 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
