mrs jc ask council to pay.

ha HA ha HA
now you're wearing the same as ME

jeans, long cardy coat thing, black top, boots

except I fecking well fell OVER on a broken bit of kerb this morning whilst holding DS - in my heroic attempt (successful) not to drop him or bang his head on the road I ripped a hole in my jeans, bashed up my knee and got covered in mud angry. On closer inspection, the broken bit of kerb had ripped the bottom bit off my boot heel.

rang up the council sounding like fricking 'disgusted from Cashmere' and they'll mend it BUT what about my new boots and jeans eh?

irrelevant, obviously, but I wanted to rant
