I'm in a bad mood after yesterday
Why is it that things always happen in threes?
The day didn't start well, as I spent most of it in Nuneaton. If Stratford upon Avon is the jewel in the crown of Warwickshire, then Nuneaton is the dangly bit of fluff hanging from the arse of Warwickshire.
Then, on the way back home, I managed to pick up a puncture in one of the rear tyres of my car - a puncture right next to the sidewall that couldn't be repaired. While I was looking at it, I noticed that the tyre on the other side was pretty damn close to the legal wear limit too. So, 2 new tyres later I was just over £500 lighter.
Then if that wasn't enough, I made myself a cheese toastie when I got in. Being an impatient sod, I started eating it right away only for a jet of superheated cheddar to squeeze out and onto my lip. I swear this stuff is an effective napalm substitute, as it immediately started burning and set solid almost on contact, taking half of the skin off my lower lip.
So here I am, £500 lighter and a scabby lip thanks to yesterday.
*grumps*
Hope today is better
