We are bracing ourselves for the next storms and high tides\u2026you watch the tele and you\u2019d think this had never happened before\u2026.talk about scare mongering\u202680 mile an hour gales forecast here for Friday morning\u2026.I had 18 holes of golf in a bit of a breeze\u2026Because of the bad weather down south there have been power cuts leaving folk with no electricity over Christmas and the power companies have come under heavy criticism\u2026,because they took so long to get the power back on\u2026.now I don\u2019t know enough about the situation but I would have thought it\u2019s the fault of the weather\u2026which no-one has any control over\u2026but I suppose in true British style SOMEONE has be blamed.\n\n.I am getting rather miffed at modern American films with dialogue which is impossible to decipher\u2026the trend seem to be to deliver the script with a whispering growl\u2026you turn the sound up and then the music blows you out of the room\u2026will SOMEBODY teach the Americans how to act and ENUNCIATE !!!!......I watched a film called \u201cShooter\u201d with Mark Whalberg\u2026gave up after 20 minutes\u2026couldn\u2019t make out a word they were saying\u2026similarly I watched a film on the story of Chess Records which I found very interesting except again I couldn\u2019t hear a word\u2026not only that - they grumble without their lips moving.\n\nTrain fares have gone up by 3%....which makes travelling by train a bit on the pricey side\u2026.a contract from Dover to London will now cost over 5 grand\u2026one from Manchester to Liverpool will cost 3 grand. I don\u2019t travel by train but it sounds expensive to me\u2026they had a half witted official from the railways prattling on about how people will be travelling 16000 miles and it is a lot cheaper by train than by car\u2026er excuse me\u2026.I\u2019ve worked out that 16000 miles in a car that does 35 to the gallon will cost less than 3 grand (and that is diesel)\u2026so I don\u2019t know where Mr.Railwayman gets his figures. \u2026Oh I forgot they need to rip everyone off to get the money for the high speed train service that no-one wants\u2026.do me a favour.\n\n I watched the first in the series of \u201cBenidorm\u201d\u2026oh dear\u2026oh deary deary me\u2026.totally lost it\u2019s way\u2026I\u2019m only glad it\u2019s not coming out of my licence fee\u2026..I also enjoyed the new year fireworks in London\u2026always nice to know where our taxes go\u2026did someone say \u201crecession\u201d ??...don\u2019t be daft.
