I was going to blog on here today but it won't let me blog any pictures and I don't have the time to faff about so you can see what I was going to say here:

Ants On My Pants
I found one crawling over my newly cleaned washing last night, then spotted one crawling over the floor, so nags blitzed downstairs with ant spray when we went to bed. I woke this morning and haven’t seen a single ant yet. Sadly I did see a deceased big black beetle though. Apart from that, it’s too hot for me, my finger still hurts and I’m very mardy today. For more from me today (if you are interested) go to http:/www.platform27.co.uk/diva |

They're here
Last night nagnagnag and I came back from dinner at his parents and naggers found one solitary ant crawling across the kitchen table. He got nervous (anyone remember the grief we had earlier last month? If not click here for the low down) and so he sprayed the kitchen liberally with ant repellent spray. This morning I get up to do breakfast and feed the dog and find one of the little ant gits crawling on a cupboard door. Since nags normally doesn't have insects in his kitchen it was disturbing to see this little black harbinger of doom wandering about aimlessly. I told nags and we pondered what to do when I opened the porch door to pop a bag of rubbish in there (for nags to take to the bin on his way out to work) and I screamed. I swear I heard that psycho screechy violin noise as I spotted millions of them crawling all over the porch floor and under some new letters we hadn’t picked up yesterday. Nags sprang in to action and sprayed the porch on his way out so much that I heard the poor love gag and cough. He sped off to work, I took dog and me upstairs and I hope when I get back downstairs later today there’ll be nothing but little dotted carcasses of those evil nasties on the porch floor. My next dilemma is, how do I pick up the post from the mat without squealing like a girl at all those little insect dead bodies? *thinks* *a light bulb in Diva’s head comes on* Leave it to big brave nags! Blokes are so handy ;oD ************************* Well I can’t leave comments on my blog at the moment, the html editor on 20six is not working properly so I've had to do this all over again in notepad and add the links manually, I've no idea what that’s all about but it’s all a bit too much for me right now so if you want to find my other wibble for the day then go here: Diva's Wibblings |

Poo Bum Fart Willy
*sigh* I'm still a gloomy mare today, hence my tourettes. Things in my personal life are a bit overwhelming and 20six doesn’t feel or look how I remember and I need all the security blankets I can get my hands on right now. Poor Pete’s been chucked right in at the deep end if you ask me, I think it’s appalling how he’s been expected to be the only one to fix everything and he’s been very professional with his responses (I used to work in Customer Services at a large department store in Kensington when it had a grand revamp and re-opening so I know what it’s like on the front line of something new) but, bless his bum, he can’t fix the things I need (I don’t think he can anyway) so, even though I’ve worked for AAAAAAAAAGES to get my blog looking how it was, with this new 20six I feel like someone has taken away my soft, warm blankie and given me some shiny, lurid polyester shirt to hold while I metaphorically suck my thumb. I’ve said I was leaving but I’ve had a few sweeties say they don’t want me to go and give it a chance, which was nice cos I didn’t think many would give a toss! (it’s lovely to be wanted nagnagnag is sooooo rushed off his feet that he hasn’t had time to do all the masses of hassly intricate things needed to get his blog back on the road (just how he liked it before) and said he’s walking too, but then so many people who are in his position, people who just want aquick and nifty place to chuck down a few thoughts when the bosses back has turned have been faced with the same dilemma, so I understand where he’s coming from, but I will see what I can do persuade him to give it a day or two, maybe I’ll try and recreate his blog too. Sorry to be so glum, hopefully I’ll be feeling more upbeat soon. Some good news, I got a new prescription (after I stopped the one that made me go pretty bonkers) and I think it’s working well, no strange side effects as yet, I’ll keep you posted, betcha can’t wait! ;o) Right, I have things to do so I best get off and do them. Hope you are all enjoying the weather, and if anyone is ff from here do let me know and I’ll amend my faves accordingly, I don’t want to lose touch with anyone. Ta ta for now. |

*Grump*
Ok, it’s not been very long I know, it’s been a day, and I tried to make it a bit brighter, I've added a bit of colour but I still don't like it. (And before anyone starts saying about Pete I KNOW he's been working hard, not at any point do I think this is his fault and the poor guy has loads on his plate right now and has been dealing with it all very professionally, but unless Pete can put it back how it was, bless him, he can’t make it better for me and that's not his fault!) I don’t like this radical change and it's made me grumpy. I hate the fact we can’t edit comments anymore, I hate the fact we have to type in so much crap just to comment, I hate the fact the home page is soooo dull, I hate the fact it's lost so much 'connection' with other bloggers, it's all so hard to find (yeah I know as we use it it’ll get easier but I knew it before) and cliques will develop as it won't be as easy as before to surf around. Ok I know it isn't impossible to use but I fell for 20six because of the way it was different to all the other blogs. Now this place is just like all the others, and I can't see the point in being here when platform27 is like how 20six used to be. I guess I'll give it some more time and see how I can make it more like home, but I'm wary. Believe me this isn't great for me, I don't want to leave, 20six has given me so much in my life recently, I've had a reason to get out of bed when I've felt so ill I just wanted to die, I've met the most amazing people on here, some mates I hope I keep forever, I've been given some brilliant support and advice, I’ve had fun and written some blogs I'd like to keep for the future and also now have a great record of the last few months of my life, so leaving here won't be a choice taken lightly, but even though I was ready for the change I didn't expect it to be so harsh. I saw 20six.de and figured it might be different here, I thought (hoped) they might have jazzed it up for the UK, but not only is it just the same but it even has German spattered through it (yes I know that will be removed). I'll hold out for a bit, but it's breaking my heart to be here. It's just not the same anymore and it doesn't look too hopeful. I'm not happy about this, so please don't be mean to me in the comments cos I'm just not up to it. I’m not adverse to change, improvements are good and the way forward, but sometimes you gotta live by the old saying as it has a bloody good point: If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. |

Joke Of The Day
This major selling point will be no longer usable so I wonder what they will do to advertise the new 'improved' 20six. Any ideas? |
