OOh bloody hell - that football.
I'm not a football person but watched yesterday's match - how to comfort dh - no idea - partly as I had nooo idea what was going on. I packed him off to cry into his beer with his mates. I could not understand the emotion tbh and I'm pissed off that the next England match clashes with my favourite tv programme. DH reckoned it was the fault of the manager - same manager - same team - but I've no idea. But I keep telling him 'it's only a game, it's only a game, it's only a game.'
ds has an English name that has a very similar Italian one (add an 'e' for the Itlalian version -the only difficulty being it's one of those names that if you add an e' it becomes a girl's name in the English as we get the original name from the French) - the names I wanted were no no's for dh's family ( non european and hence a challenge for ils to utter) - so we went the other way and went for a very 1980's male UK popstar name. Poor, poor ds - it's not wild but gives the impression of a middle aged accountant. But we like it as we're 80's people and liked the lead singer of this group.
I'd just say that ensure the name is credible on job applications 18 or 21 years down the line.
And my ds has his granfathers' names as middle names - quite a mouthful between them.
Lovely and hot - I love hot - 28 is spring to me but ds gets heat stroke at anything higher than 24 degrees. Not sure how to manage that one.
I've given up on the book recommendations - we've run out of cash - and I'm getting nowhere getting a job - yep partly because of recession and partly because I'm now an old bird with two careers breaks under my belt. Career breaks are not good. I'll have to try harder!
So child tax credit is going?
Oh gawd - I think it's to do with getting women out of the workplace so men get more of a chance.
Anyhow - off to mil's in 4 week's time. Lots ot prepare.
