Been a while crocodile
April 3rd, 2008Bloody hell. It’s been ages. It seems that I can’t get a minutes peace to write this blog these days. It’s not as if I’ve been short of things to rant about.
Things I’m liking this week include:-
- Shameless
- Skins
- Listening to music
- Spartans trying to buy Gretna Football Club and then take their place in the league
- Nasi Goreng
Things I’m hating this week:-
- Work on the tram network
The tram work is starting to piss on my chips in quite a considerable manner. Our whole street is dug up. It’s like Quatermass and the Pit. Loads of blokes in high visibility jackets standing around looking into huge holes in the ground. We can’t park near the house, they keep screwing with our water pressure (they are rerouting utilities) and they leave their fucking generator running all night.
That wouldn’t be too bad if the whole city wasn’t dug up to the extent that traffic is at a standstill. Don’t worry though, because apparently the tram network will deliver excellent transport links by 2010. So, two years of chaos and traffic gridlock to make the journey to the airport 5 minutes quicker. Nice one. We love you Edinburgh Council.
I’ll be back soon to write about nice stuff, but at the moment, I don’t have the stomach for it.
