I'm really pissed off, I got a letter from Setanta Sports, informing me that the monthly subscription is going up from £9.99 to £12.99 per month. That's 30% of a rise. Are they taking the fucking piss. The price of petrol is going up everyday, in fact it goes up that bloody frequently that the local petrol stations have employed a guy, just to keep changing the price. And if fuel goes up, everything goes up in price, food, and services, and travel, then these arseholes try to get more money out of me, well it ain't gonna happen. I thought that their footie coverage was poor-mediocre, and I only watched it for certain games. I should have guessed that they were going to increase prices, they've been advertising that they've got a lot of the International matches LIVE, and other things. If they had put it up by a £1, I would've moaned about it ( I am Scottish after all) but thought that it was alright.
I am on a fixed income, and it's fixed too bloody low as well, but that's another matter, so finding an extra £3 a month isn't easy. Should I cancel my direct debit charity monthly donation to Actionaid? Nah, I couldn't do that, that would be criminal of me. I don't smoke, I can't drink ( well I can, but I take too many pills, and it's not advisable to mix alcohol and drugs) I'm trying very hard to give up the "One Night Stands" my wife thinks that it's about time I did ( that's all untrue, the one night stands bit, the rest of it is true, I think it is) I don't get out much, so I spend most of my time on t'internet or watching television.
If I was to tell you that I don't have any black or ethnic minority friends, would you think I was racist? I have had, in the past non-white friends, but I never really thought of them by the colour of their skin, so didn't feel the need to ask the question, as I had lots of friends. However I don't have many white friends anymore, does that make me sad? I bloody feel sad now. Oh shit, what a life I lead. I wish I'd never bothered now, I'm getting depressed, but I shouldn't, because I know that I will have food in my belly, a roof over my head, clothes to keep me warm, everything to hand, so why should I be sad?
