Greetings
Tomorrow I'll be on the ferry to Sarfampton with Bart the Dog and a carload of shite.
Really need to laze about and not think about Aunts, gardens, banks and the fecking government*.
Rushing about like a blue arsed fly today of course but it WILL be worth it.
Off to hoover tons of white dog fur out of the car now...
*Politics will raise its head on Tuesday when I meet my pals from Totnes. Down there the South Devon Primary selected the Liberal candidate as best placed to oust the Tory but when we tried that in the new East Wight constituency, bloody Labour and Liberals chickened out. Feck them then!

I'm having a slow start to the day. I've just finished my first tea and I'm ready to start reviewing, and maybe start ploughing through a big pile of records I've bought recently that I haven't got round to playing yet.
The dog demanded a belly rub just now, but she has since gone back to dozing in her bed.
I have a lot to sort out (zine, podcast, band and book stuff), but I don't feel I have the mental capacity to do all that yet, I need some ear blasting noise from a new Scottish band called Dark Harvest Commandos, who my band will be doing a couple of gigs with later this year.
Right, onwards (maybe another tea first).

I’m getting a bit frustrated by German bureaucracy but finally managed to order a SCHUFA (trust me, you don’t want to know) report yesterday and I just need to wait for it to arrive in the post before forwarding it to the estate agent and the prospective new (Chinese) landlord/overlord. Proving you’re solvent is a complicated business in Germany it seems. I had to watch a 20 minute video produced by an enterprising lesbian couple from Berlin (not that sort of video FFS!) before I understood what I had to do. I sent them a few euros by way of thanks because it made a lot more sense to me after I watched their video. Now it’s over to Deutsche Post.
I could really use a restful weekend but will need to continue with the clear out instead. We need to clear up and clear out before another round of viewings on Saturday too. I need a holiday but fat chance of that at the moment.
This new apartment had better be worth all the hassle (even though we didn’t instigate the move). I’m already looking forward to having a working dishwasher again.
I demand another comfy win at the weekend from Saints to cheer me up as I’m feeling worn out and down in the dumps this week.
PS. Just pray you never have to use ID NOW’s automated ID verification procedure because it nearly drove me to a nervous breakdown yesterday. I thought it was bad when you had to have a video call with someone but the automated version is even worse. It wouldn’t recognise my British passport, nor my German ID card and there was no way within the app to contact a real hooman bean for help. I just gave up and ordered a report to be posted instead of going mad trying to prove I was entitled to access the PDF.

Morning
I am pissed off with the club and the proposed changes to St.Mary's.
Nothing else concerns me today.

In other news. I got the test version of our book today. I can't really believe it's a real thing, but it is and I have it.
I've done a little video, but I'm unsure if I can post it here.

Evening
Another manic day at work today, but at least we're at the weekend.
In laugh at the posy walker news, because it was a nice sunny evening and I was leaving before 7 for once, I put my top down on the way home. Part way home I heard bat bat bat bat... seagull strafed my car nose to tail, one just in front of me on the windscreen and the next full in the face of the passenger's headrest... a lucky escape!
Hoping for a relatively quiet weekend (and a Saints win), but realised I have to go to one of my team's 60th tomorrow... obviously nice of them to invite me ( noone from work got to come to my birthday dos), but not really what the doctor ordered.
