Unfortunately, on the days where Claire has to work, I must remain out of trouble in the bedroom.
I can now get downstairs on my own, but still believe that it is only safe to do so while my wife is nearby. This is in case I do something stupid, like standing up on the stair lift while it is in motion, or trying to go somewhere in the house which is unsafe – the loft has always seemed interesting.
To keep me nourished, Claire prepares me a bag of food and drink, for my enjoyment while she is out of the house.
One of the items she made me on Friday, was a bottle of Coke. Claire had to use an old water bottle, which she filled with Coca Cola from a larger bottle. How boring – you don’t want to be reading that. I hope you haven’t fallen asleep!
Anyway, at some point during the afternoon, I was becoming rather thirsty. Thinking a refreshing drink of Coke would help, I opened the bottle…
Bloody hell! It was if a bomb had gone off! The bang generated by the escaping CO2 was so loud and unexpected, it was lucky I didn’t release any gas of my own.
I am pleased to report that despite the thunderous noise and trauma to my central nervous system, no mess was generated – neither from the bottle or my bottom.

- What Have They Done To My Flat?
My former flat, where I lived between 2007 and 2013, looks to be for sale!
I thought that I would let you all know, in case I have a stalker, who wishes to live in my former home and has a spare £180k lying around.
If any of my fans want to see where their favourite blogger...
- Thank You, Rubbish Dudes!
I am pleased to announce that we have both an update and a conclusion to the missing/stolen food recycling box.
A clean, brand spanking new box has been left outside our house.
Claire managed to get it into our back garden before the bin burglar could steal another from us!
So, I believe that is "thank you" to...
- Have You Tried Turning It Off And Back On Again?
In case anyone has been worried about my broken stairlift and the prospect of me being stranded upstairs forever, fear not, for it has been fixed!
We turned it off an on again.
See... the most effective approach to fixing anything technical, whether it be a computer, stairlift or television.
I'm sure the fix is not even below...
- Be Careful What You Wish For
We had a power cut this afternoon. Apparently many properties near to ours were also affected.
Thankfully the "blackout" lasted for just a few seconds. That brief period was long enough to knock out all my tech, which, once power had returned, spent ages whirring and beeping as it all came back to life.
The power cut...
- Well That Was Long Overdue…
I had my haircut yesterday, for the first time since February.
Let's just say my mop was getting very long and I was getting very annoyed with it.
You also know it's bad when your wife calls you Shaggy. I assume she didn't mean the cool dude behind classic tunes like It Wasn't Me and In the Summertime. She...
