Happy birthday Jeff, whoever you are.
Weekend was good. Friends round on Friday - got pissed, had a curry and watched Carry On Screaming.

Saturday went to a dear little antiques market that featured some lovely Nazi memorabilia, then went to the pub and got pissed - to a significant degree on a Burton Trent beer called Stairway To Heaven, which was nice.

Wood Street Indoor market in Walthamstow/Epping.
In Lewis a couple of years ago I was very tempted by a wonderful silver SS teapot I found in the market there. Sadly they wanted £175 for it, which was about £174.99 over my budget, and they wouldn't accept sex in lieu of payment.

as usual the fucking pleb-infested tube has got monday off to a cracking start
i was annoyed that i had to top up my oyster card (feels like such a waste of money, shouldn't they be paying me?) and there was a huge Q for two machines. when i was second, the girl in front of me didn't move up. i asked her if she wanted to go; she said she was with her bf. at which point the dickhead behind me cut in and started using it.

i normally sigh in silence, but i was already cross, so i said, "excuse me?" he said, "you were taking too long." i snapped, "i was being POLITE. you could learn a thing or two about that." he shrugged nastily at me.

anyway, by the time i'd finished, he was still pissing around trying to get it to take his card. so i said sweetly, "now THAT'S taking too long," and sailed past the angry little cunt.
