Late at night...................

I've had the joy of watching two of my favourite films this week. Pretty Woman and Shirley Valentine. I don't know how many times I have watched them, I only know that I will take great pleasure in seeing them again................. hopefully soon. Do you have favourite films?

The closing words of S.V made me think of how I feel at this time. My phrasing.........'I've been a husband, I've been a father, and now I'm me again'. What a daunting thought. While the rest of the country was gripped in snow and ice today, I spent an hour on the beach, reliving a walk of 30 years ago. Amongst the flotsam and jetsam of the tide, my mind was not idle.

How many people would be happy to have the possibilities I have now? I have responsibility for no one, I am responsible to no one. I owe nothing and am owed nothing. The world is my lobster !!!!

And yet I would exchange it in a second for.............................. well, you know what. But that can never be.

I've had a letter today from the Dept. of Works and Pensions (the D.W.P), to say that they have made an over payment to Cag in her Benefit entitlement. They are wrong, in the respect of the amount of payment they are asking to be returned. In fact there was a small overpayment, by two days, two hours and fifteen minutes. I have replied to their request, pointing out their error and asking them if a repayment is still required..................... and I bet it is.
