Is anyone else cold? It's August for god's sake and here I am wearing my winter cardie thinking about sticking the gas fire on for half an hour to warm the place up.

Having just checked my thermometer it's 17.5 degress in here, I wouldn't put up with that in December so why am I sitting here now feeling cold just because it's summer?

Perhaps I need a Saint Bernard to turn up with a wee cask of brandy. I reckon if you were stuck in the Alps or Pyrenees (wherever Saint Bernards did their thing) you'd be better off hugging the dog than drinking the brandy as alcohol dilates your blood vessels which is the exact opposite of what you want if your in danger of freezing to death.

You could kill the dog and spend the night inside its carcass like Luke Skywalker, though a Saint Bernard isn't as big as a Tauntaun of course.

Though sitting in an oven at 180 degrees for the last half hour,may be helping.

Seriously,get/use some thermals-the proper mixed wool ones,similar with hat,gloves,add layers as required,is my advice.My record is ten-I had difficulty in moving much but I was warm.

I can still hear the Tawny owls outside though so they obviously don't mind the chill.

Did you know the "Toowit Toowoo" is the male calling and the female answering? He does the Toowit and she does the Toowoo.

Happened to know,only because my first role in my acting career was the part of an owl.I was also in Rumplestiltskin but my fear of facing the audience at any time,perhaps led to the demise of any future offers.

My acting career was also cut short by the discovery of my only only phobia, public speaking.

Actually that's a lie, I also have a phobia about falling from large heights, which doesn't so much mean I'm afraid of heights, just that near them I can't stop imagining myself hurtling down them to my painful doom.

You haven't read about my one and only entry?
I was very political at school,my nickname was Trotsky(it was a very right wing area anybody that was vaguelly non fascist/ nationalist(in the days the SNP were correctly called Tartan Tories,rather than the current fakery of pretending not to be,was a Commie)
Unbeknownst to me I was entered in an election for Student Representative Committee-some forgery was involved)
I didn't know this until it was announced in an assembly and I was introduced to the waiting throng.Who the hell is he",was the general response and marked the high point of the campaign.My speech consisted of "hello",admittedly brief but it gave all the salient points,I think.The campaign as such consisted of going to a local hostelry and playing pool with my campaign manager.I'd done the leg work,it was up to the electorate now.It gets a bit misty now as to the precise sequence of events and I can't remember the actual final vote tally but know I didn't win.As far as I know the Committee never met.

Nah,I'm more of a relentless pursuer of my obsessive concerns,kind of guy,my personality,lack of tolerance,impatience,inability to call a Tory in the least bit honourable and numerous other factors mean I am totally unsuitable.

Notice the boots. I bought them from a rather famous tax avoiding company online beginning with A. I thought I was buying a trusty pair of Karrimor boots like I'd had in the past but no. Turns out Karrimor were bought by that cunt Mike Ashley and are now made in China for Sports Direct. I tried cancelling my order when I realised but it was too late. Now I have a pair of boots I hate.

First world problems and all that.

As my friend has expressly denied me the right to post his image online I can only offer this blur of something weird wearing a Seventies brown leather pimp jacket in the wild. Looks like a yorkshire Yeti with an Ian Curtis haircut to me.

That hat is the best thing I've bought in years. You have no idea. Without a decent sun hat we baldy bastards really suffer. It's not cool to turn up anywhere with flakes of skin peeling from one's cranium.

It's an absolute joy to run hair clippers over one's head once a week completely free and stride forth into the world looking cool as fuck.

An endeavour I'd have undoubtedly indulged in had I still had a full head of hair.

Anyway I'm now being judged by the DWP once again as to my fitness to work.

I've managed to avoid it for 2 years thanks to that idiot homunculus Iain Duncan Smith fucking up the system but my time has now arrived once again.

I wish I could use my behaviour here as evidence but sadly the DWP will ignore everything besides my upcoming assesment with Maximus.

My track record so far on convincing people I'm too insane to work is pretty pretty good, so we'll see what happens.

The best way I find to deal with the DWP is to make an assumption that they are the enemy.

Individuals working for them may be good, but the system is evil.

Last time I went through this they lied repeatedly, with absolutely no shame.

An online friend told me where the nurse who had conducted my ATOS interview lived.

What should we do?

Drive a car into them?

I think not.

Holy crap, just walked home in the middle of a thunderstorm that hit a tree right in front of me.

It was steaming when I had the courage to go and look. It was an old Sycamore split in two.

I remember squirrels capering in its branches.
