so much to tell

i suppoe the biggest news is that 18 yo ds got fired from Butlins for too much partying!

quell surprize, so he landed home last wek with two suitcaes of dirty washing

 

it doesn’t end there

He needs to get a job – he can’t be a lazy arse – i wont let him, so been off work this morning, my neices BF came round at 9am they both went into town to job centre -they went to connections last week

 

now in my day – many many many moons ago before t’internet was invented, a trip to the job centre meant looking at the cards , noting the ref, then speaking to an advisor and then the advisor would literally phone it up for youand send you along to an inerview.

 

no so now it seems, oh no – now they go in type sommat print sommat off and there is a free phone in the corner – what feck use is that for lazy little 18 yr old shits i tells ya?

 

so he has been doing this last week too – with no success, despite me ringing him up from work and saying ” i saw this job , give it a ring”

 

he thinks he is getting his week in hand money – we broke it to him yesterday that he got FIRED and the termination letter said ” if you think we arepaying you your week in hand you lazy bastard you can get nobbed” – well it was similar to that anyway.

 

so he realised he isn’t getting any money.

like i said they went to job centre and ome home with lots of slips <rolls eyes> then i made him phone them all up – agencies are fucking useless, “send in a cv and we will neer ring you back”

as well as realising that he isn’t getting any more money  – there is an aded incentive.

 

his gf left her retail job to go be with him at Butlins, now she is stuck there, becuase she has nowhere else to live, bcuase her mum has a drug dealer boyriend who was one upon a tie ‘done’ for manslaughter! …i know…so this man doesn’t like the GF, and so the mum says “well you are 18, sort yourself out”

 

now she is alovely girl, v. loverly.  so i spoke with dhand told him that she had been speaking to me about gettin a bedsit not far away – with ds – £377 pm bills inc. sounds good to me.  she has got her old retail job back, but nowhere to live. i think its ok for her to stay here for a few months until they can Both move out on condition ds gets a job, she has a job, i get paid board by both.”

dh and i have conversation – he says ok.

 

she would have to share a room withdd because  the attic is the boys room, ds2 still deserves his own space and it is not turning into a shagpad. 

so i am thinking about the existing ergonomics of the family unit.

 

i speak to DD, she loves D and is best friends with her younger sister, she rolled her eyes, and i told her that if she wants to say no – its perfectly fine – i won’t mention anything, she said ” i can’t do that she Hates Butlins so much  – ok mum”

so i called them down and i told them that if she wanted to she can stay here until they have saved up for bedsit.

 

this means she can only come once she and ds1 have a job. i told them that i know they are both 18 and they will be having nookie, but they cannot chuck brother out of his space, they much be inventive – give im money, encourage him to go out with friends etc. but that is his space and remains his shared space .

i said she could stay in dd’s room, iwould buy another matress, but when she gets up for work, to kick it back under the bed, respect that it is dds space

i expect board – i said

she nearly cried and gave me a big hug. shes a nice girl. well until she lives here – no i really think she’s a nice girl.

 

upshot is son gets job they both move out before xmas.

so that was an extra rocket up his arse to get a job and he came home – i read out numbers from what he brought home and also job centre plus website and he has an interview 9.30 tomorow for a part time cleaning job – better than fuck all ( i wont let him claim benefits  or money, becuase that would do him nicely £90 per fortnight) NO BUMS IN THIS HOUSE _ GET A JOB….anyway…another interview on thursday -t his is the dogs bolleaux of jobs ( for hoim) full time, drivers mate – sat in a cab being a white van man, reading the sun newspaper and loading an unloading. god i hope he gets it.

 

so thats only the eldest son part.

ds2 is ignoring his girlfriend -i think he stood her up and said ” i will talk to her on MSN =she can’t shout at me that way”

and daughters BF practically lives here – infact dd is out at a friends right now the bf is with ds2 watching movies – he is a nice lad – and knows he is my “brew bitch” ohhhhh yes

 

theres stuff about work – yawn yawn

 

i got an infected foot been porlypoorly for two weeks

bil found me a bike for £15 at ar boot – i had v. specific requirements – granny bike – he found it – a raleigh – its great and now my foot is nearly better i shall be riding to the station and back – well half way back its uphill !

bil fixes shit – its great – he fixed my back gate, he put ez’s shelves up – its great – i think the quid pro quo is that dh goes round and fixes all puter probs for him.

Branded products i love even though they probably kill babies.

I have never eaten Kellogs bran flakes. – bran flakes = cardboard esq flakes avec milk – why pay more for cardboard.?… until we had no cereal and i went to the shop.  I always try to get something that the kids will eat in desperation through lack of choice – becuase if i actually get something yummy they eat it for breakfast, second breakfast lunch, second lunch, tea, second tea, third tea and supper like a Hobbit.  So i bought the bran flakes for exactly that reason. and there they have sat – no one touches them becuase …well it’s bran flakes.  Little do my kids know, that they are fecking yumtastic and this means that i hve managed to have two bowls of cereal this week – unheard of.  Now i don’t know that Kellogs oppress any group of people in particular,  but am guessing farmers are eating sheep shit becuase they have to grow grain at redic prices for kellogs! can’t have no other cornflakes either – its kellogs or nowt – but cornflakes go in a flash.

Then there is  Cart Noir.

Coca-Cola – they must kill hundreds of thousands indirectly depositing funds into political accounts supporting but fuckers in the white house to blow shit up – mustn’t they?

but it sooooooooo beats the shit out of Pepsi. – esp in a glass bottle…with a straw….takes me back to Fri night at st. Pats disco – me & Kay bestsest friends.

Dove shampoo and conditioner. they must oppress someone but erm…….. can’t think of anything – You tell ME. well its just the dogs bolleaux.  i always used cheapest tesco shampoo and conditioner – and any hairdresser will tell you that actually thats the best thing for your hair becuase its so goddam cheap its full of less chemicles and more water!

Then i tried Dove – but its like an obsession to get it cheap – at tesco, they have them for 73p – so each time i go i buy it – even the pro-age…. its just conditioner and i do have a few greys <ahem>

Don’t even start witht he Heinz beans thing – what a croc – apart from having dubious oppression credentials beans is beans.
