The more observant of you might have noticed I haven't posted in a while. Apologies for this. I'm in a foul fucking mood and feel it would be cruel to share it.

Also, Impending Doom: my mother is showing up on Sunday for a visit. For a week or two. This has been giving me nightmares for weeks. Don't ask. I just have a Bad Feeling about her visit... I think there may be arguments.

Lovely weather fuck no, it ain't.

I don't think anyone would want to bridge that social gulf... unless, of course, they were inbred public-school-(mis)educated* tosspots with a penchant for Nazi uniforms.

*hangs head, shuffles feet* Uhh, it was only three years (before they kicked me out) and I found the quality of education to be quite good, really.

And in the case of the sort of people you're on about (I'm quite happily lowermiddleclassthankyouverymuch) - what gulf?

To be honest, I shouldn't have taken a pop at Phillip because he's actually one of the more tolerable (because fallible) of the Royals.

And the most entertaining!

Amusingly, my public school education has come in useful precisely once thus far. I was sitting in the pub last week with a couple of mates, and one of them whipped out his journal - inscribed in the front was, uh - damn, I can't remember the exact wording but it was vaguely Latin for "If you can read this, you're well educated."

The irony is greatly appreciated.

That's brilliant!

I didn't mean to generalise about a PSE - "some of my best friends etc etc"...

I love all the back-tracking and side-stepping going on in my journal... does the dance have a name, I wonder?

Ah, I know... it's the Shuffle of Lestio Ffend...
