Did you ever realize how if you allow even a little bit of negative thinking into your thinking process, that it can spoil your good mood? Negative thinking is counter productive as well as self-defeating, and it makes you feel worse! Do you honestly think that anyone since the beginning of time ever accomplished anything worthwhile when they were in a bad mood?

Bloody hell what an evening.
A van, which had been dumped outside our house for a couple of days explodedinto a ball of flames last night. Me and Lia were sitting watching TV when all of a sudden we heard a rather large bang and a orange haze outside the window caused by 30 foot high flames. After several seconds of swearing and thinking the flat underneath had caught fire we realised it was a van and called the fire brigade. Due to the close proximatey of the burning van to our front door and the fact the wind was blowing the flames towards the house we could not get out of the house without getting are faces singed. After a couple of minutes the local fire brigade rocked up and put the bastard out.
Anyway, the smoke and fact that we thought the house was on fire promptly caused Lia to have some sort of asthma attack. To make matters worse the silly bint had left her inhailer at work and there was not a bloody paper bag in site. So there I was thinking I was going to have to 999 for the
second time in one evening. Some how she managed to make a paper bag type/breathing aid device out of the Guardian newspapers front page and after five minutes got her breath back.
Having composed herself a bit and with news print all over her face she then asked Can you chuck as a fag...
Bloody Aussies.

A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session with four
young mothers and their small children.
He observed, "You all have obsessions."
To the first mother, he said, "You are obsessed with eating. You've
even named your daughter Candy."
He turned to the second mom. "Your obsession is money. Again, it
manifests itself in your child's name, Penny."
He turned to the third mom, "Your obsession is alcohol. It manifests
itself in your child's name, Brandy."
At this the fourth woman takes her son by the hand and whispered,
"Come on, Dick, we're going home."

'Crap towns' from The Idler:
http://www.idler.co.uk/html/frontsection/craptown/30_5/england.htm
Bridgwater's annual carnvial is said only to be held because it gives the town's residents "something better to do than commit suicide."
Shepton Mallet is described as "small, violent although rather quaint in parts."
Bath is described as "essentially a retirement town with an unpleasant amount of students."
