The jab and Capital Works

[Barry]

You will be giving up caffeine.

This is in code, Borchester. 😲

[Sheepy]

Quite.

It strikes me that £23,000 is small compensation for the lose of caffeine.

Life lessons matey, Tony Blair once cost me a new TV because I have a bad aversion to complete bullshit, this wasn't a very old TV and Mrs bucket said had I seen the new all dancing version at 50" or some nonsense. So I said I was very happy with the 32" TV I hadn't long bought, She said a bigger one would be better for her eyesight, So when I threw a shoe at Tony Blair, I broke the screen, which cost me a new 50" TV, everybody was happy. On the Brightside I never listen to Tony Blair ever again and the TV is still going years later. Even better I kept the old one and when the price of 32" TVs came down my neighbour gave me one that the mainboard had clapped out on, so I fitted his screen on my TV mainboard and it is in the bedroom and works as a full HD monitor and a TV, bonus, so she still has to watch it.

On the brightside borchester, you feel you are 23k better off, the council is 21k better off and you have done what you are told, because you are 23k better off. But you thought you would get a quiet life for the 21k never going to happen. You will be giving up caffeine.

So last week the NHS offered me the booster jab and the local council asked me to give it $44,000 for repairs to our property. So I said bugger to the first and oh Christ, what do we do now to the second.

The she started. I should have the jab because well, I should have the jab. And I replied that she had had them all which meant that whatever I got she wouldn't and that was the bit that counted so would she kindly shut up and and make me a drop of coffee. And she said no because the coffee and cream and biscuits and the pan au chocolat were killing me and I was a selfish bastard and that and that.

And so matters rumbled on until this morning when she walked in, gave me a cup of coffee and said that she had been onto the council and gotten the bill down to £21,000 and when was I having the jab. And I thought blimey, for £23,000 they could shove the needle up my backside and turn it sideways.

So I am going to have the booster jab. The only problem is that she is now talking about decaff coffee. I can't see how giving up real coffee can be worth £23,000, but she now has the morale high ground, so I can see a long fight ahead.
