Syriae

Just read that Russia and China have vetoed tying to end the crisis and the murder of the Syrian citizens.

Jeez. What cowards and nice that Russia is also selling them weapons. Bastards.

Got tablet, will blog

Hello all the non readers who are all gone.

Fatherhood, work and life have led to sit down time being for relaxing and not blogging. Well we have gone tablet adn easier to blog.

So watching Scotland England rugby and apparently the BBC is English. Sound off and Radio Scotland on.

Medical History

Mr Fridge, Mrs Fridge and The Boy have had an interesting medical few months. Since the Boy started going to the nursery, which is a hub and crossing point for all manner of bugs, The Boy has been ill and has also passed many things onto his lovely parents. Little folk seem to get over things really quickly were as us old(er) folks seem to take longer to get over them. Mr Fridge was hit hard! (Not to say Mrs Fridge wasn’t but it is my blog.) The Boy gifted Mr Fridge 6 viruses and 1 disease. 2 of those viruses were at the same time! Well impressive. The Hand, Foot and Mouth disease was particularly fun: never realised a little person could vomit so much for so far! Mr and Mrs Fridge were also struck down and I had a week off work and was the only one of us to develop the lesions on my hands, feet and mouth.

Self Exploration of Geek draws to a close!

My journey to geekiness has peeked! I brought a Dalek alarm clock into work, as it had no where to live at home, “There is no way that is going to be out alarm clock in our room” is actually what happened . That is it! I have no more inclinations to discuss Sci-Fi stuff and spent lunch discussing politics and refused to discuss the BBC's Sci-Fi series, ‘Torchwood’. (It is very good though.)

I have been reading books again, interacting with normal everyday folk , wearing normal clothing, shouting at the television news and looking at paying my council tax properly (Edinburgh City Council are not the best run when it comes to giving you the right bill).

On a more serious note, Michael Jackson’s funeral drew much more coverage, front pages, news inches and attention on the same day that a memorial to the dead of the 7th July bombings was unveiled (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8137265.stm). Money counts more than relevant news. Journalists and editors are scum but yet we allow them to dictate how much of the non-thinking British public think. By that I mean Sun readers, Express readers, Mail Readers . . you get the gist. Report the news guys and not populist and easy to fill column inches such as, ‘Micheal's family were very upset’ and ‘Bubbles has not yet been told’. The guy was a freak who needed help and stopped. Innocent people died in Tavistock and that is not more news worthy?

Nuff said there.

Third Post

To complete the geek transformation I am going out to the village pub quiz wearing a Star Wards Yoda T-shirt after having cut the head of off a storm trooper . . . cartoon style of course, real would be impossible and sick. . .

Second Post in a Day!

Shocking news Reader,

I now sit opposite my village friend Perry and he is slowly bringing out the geek in me. I am being turned into an extremist. (Just as well I am already married and wifed!) We spent lunch time discussing Doctor Who, who would be a good actor/actress for the Doctor and who would not. The possibilities of other Time Lords exist to be brought back up in the program. DEAR GOD!!! Slightly uncomfortable feeling but enjoyable, the same sort of feeling you get when you look at the geology department of a museum, or you read a technical manual when you don’t have to, and spend a bit more time doing so than you would expect.

Anyway, Michael MacIntye (I don’t care if I have spelt his name incorrectly) has taken over as my most disliked person. He annoys me and I cannot understand his sudden rise to TV popularity. Mr Fridge’s wife’s office went to see him at the Edinburgh Fringe last year and I had to walk out he was so annoying, unfunny and predictable. There must be others!

He’s not funny, his voice is annoying and you get the feeling from TV that other genuinely funny comedians don’t like him. He even managed to get booed on a comedy charity TV program. ‘Nuff said.

MacIntyre has taken the mantle from Danny Baker. Here is my list:

1. Michael MacIntyre
2. Danny Baker
3. Chris Moyles
4. Jeffery Archer
5. Michael MacIntyre


I was up at 04:55 today with Fridge Junior, The Boy (as he shall hence forth be known). So I feel I need to cleanse my pent up stresses and share these things.

The Boy is lovely with 6 teeth and more pushing through. Wee soul. He is also crawling, making noises, playing, interacting (which is great) and being fun to be around. About time too as, to be quiet frank, they don’t really do much for the first few months and you get a bit fed up with them after a while.

Missed by some . . .

So goodbye Michael Jackson
Missed and adulated by millions
Your music has inspired and entertained many
With your good times
You had a hard life
But if we are to believe others
Then you made other lives harder
So yours was no excuse
Better people have died
Giving much more than selling tickets
Media’s easy stories and time fillers

So farewell then Mollie Sugden

The prodigal FridgeHair Returns!

Hello again all my departed readers!

Mr Fridge has been so distracted that he had lost time to blog! Shocking! House decoration and rebuilding it internally, raising a small child, Mr Fridge Father having a cog replaced in his ticker and sooo on. Oh bills. Love paying the bills.

So. Mr Fridge is disgusted at his fellow country men and women. We had our European Elections and less than a 35% turnout which enabled BNP to gain some seat with their minority votes. I am all for minority parties but not for Raciest Xenophoics such as them. Disgusting. "Standing up for the indigenous British person". The British people are mongrels: The Scots are half Irish and half Pict. The Irish came form Northern Spain and no-one really knows where the Picts came from. The Welsh are Irish, English and Vikings. The English are a mix of Roman, French, Germanic and we all all part Norse from the pillaging Vikings. Not to mention Gypsies, Africans and Asian influences in our recent history so the indigenous people of Britain is basically Europe. Backwards thinking, scared little raciest.

See you all in court, although the views express are my opinion only. That said I am sure many people have similar thoughts.

Saturday Night Rant

Hello Probably All Gone Reader,

I sit here getting used to typing again and today I am ever more a Republican than ever! Watching the BBC evening News I note that the BBC refuse to broadcast a humanitarian appeal for Gaza in the interests of impartiality. That I do not understand as the people who survived the Israeli bombardment need our help. Israel will certainly not give it; they only drop bombs on UN Schools and food stores, level industrial zones to destroy their infrastructure and use weapons banned under international laws on civilian areas.

Anyways, my rant was that the BBC ran with the Story that Prince (spit) Harry and Chelsea have split up when on holiday in the Maldives and then after that about Rwanda and Congo joining forces to try and sort out the Hutu rebels responsible for the genocide that happened there. Some balance is required I think.

Okay. Prince Harry
1. Does he not have a job in the army? He is always off on holidays.
2. He is 'our little raciest friend’. No excuse can hide what and how he said it. Despicable.
3. I never voted for him
4. He is a privileged idiot

'Nuff said tonight I think.

I also did not win the lottery.

Night all.

Mr Fridge Returns!

Happy (late) 2009 Reader!

Apologies from Mr Fridge but his laptop was out of order and is now repaired!

I have remembered my password and can now get back on to my ranting, family adoration and random thoughts!

I have so much to say on Harry Hewi . . . Windsor, George Bush, Barrack Obhama, Isreal behaving like Nazis form WWII, St Mirren football Club, UK and Scottish politics, Doctor Who, the world and everything else therein.

It feels good to type again.

Grumpy Mr Fridge

Hello Again Reader,

Mr Fridge had a grumpy lunch time. He had to nip out to buy a picture frame, which he did not get due to no shops having them, that he visited in the newly expanded Livingston Shopping centre, The Elements (http://www.theelementslivingston.co.uk/). It looks nice from the outside but when I walked in I was presented with the below vista :


Now it is the 4th of November, we have just had Halloween and yet to have bonfire night, but everything is made up for Christmas! Bit early? Devalues that special Christmas feeling you get, erm, around Christmas? What a poor show and poor parents! Mr Fridge is going to compose a letter and send to the management. I will appraise you of any reply.

Baa humbug until December.

My next posting will be more 'Too Early For Christmas', no doubt and a possible offensive rant against a certain member of the royal family. Well, I wrote it last week but is outside of my normal postings, but it is my blog and my thoughts. Forward apologies if it offends.

In response to Poirot, If my nose got any bigger I would need a nose-wheelbarrow for it. (God my car repairs are going to cost me sooo much! Oh well, next weekend may see St Mirren go above Hearts inthe SPL . . or not.)

Time for tea.

Marvelouw Mrs Fridge

Hello Reader,

Mr Fridge has recovered slightly as Mrs Fridge has been doing some grand and great work building Fridge Junior into a routine. Early to bed after an early feed then a few hours for me. I had a great time top and tailing him ready for his feed and settling for bed. He had a lovely day and slept through the local library's nursery rhymes for parents and babies.


As you can see, he has been auditioning for teletubbies, without the inbuilt tummy TV screen. His talents include, eating, pooing and, between occasional crying, sleeping. He has also just started his smiling and it melts Mr and Mrs Fridge every time.

Mr Fridge Has Been Busy : Time Has Passed

Hello Reader,

Mr Fridge has been remiss in his blog responsibilities and can only blame Fridge Junior! He has been growing and growing so much that he managed to put on 1lb in a matter of a week - which explains his constant demand for food and attention.
Here he is doing some early life dancing.

Mr Fridge also notes Poirot's response and will soon be paying even more through his nose to service and look after Lydia!

I need to post more. Fridge junior now demands my attention!

How did it get to be Thursday!

Hello Reader,

Mr Fridge is amazed that it is Thursday already! Given the lack of sleep that he and Mrs Fridge have been experiencing with Fridge Junior growing, crapping and eating we have spent longer awake than any other week, ever. The best one is my going to bed wakes him up, even when I creep in in the pitch black. I am finding the sofa very comfortable.

Anyway, Mr Fridge noticed that Mad Hearts Fan/Great Mechanic Engineer Paul has a striking resemblance to a certain Hercule Poirot. I took his picture and I will let you decide for yourself.

Hercule Poirot
Mad Hearts Fan Paul
-
Other similarities include colourful and inventive use of language, getting to the bottom of a tough problem and both have a limited availability of height.
-
The build up to a coming rant :
Mr Fridge has also been ENRAGED by the Christmas lights going up in Livingston, and probably other places up and down the country too. It is October. By doing this it devalues Christmas, stops it being special, bypasses Halloween and spoils bonfire night. Shops do it to exploit pester power from children, but a council should no better. Keep Christmas for Christmas!!!!

Mr Fridge : Grass and Poo.

Good Evening Reader,


You read me at the end of a Monday and still working away due to my sheer dedication to the job. While I wait for engineer feedback I shall take this opportunity to update the reader my life.

On Saturday I cut the grass for the first time in my life! I have never done it before and as soon as I had built the cutting machine and learnt, quite quickly, that you should not run it over the power cable or wear open toed shoes (well, my nails needed trimmed) I got to work on the front and rear jungles that are Fridge Manor’s gardens. What a job I did! Like many things you do first time, it was absolutely atrocious but I enjoyed it tremendously. The grass was so long that even of giraffe setting the cutting machine was set to was not overly effective and Mr Fridge had to really run over and over it again: the mover even got so clogged up that I had to continuously stop and pick and scoop out the grass (I had learned to unplug it at this point). After an hour or two I was done and it was the worst looking set of lawns that I had ever seen! The organic recycling bin is full to bursting with cut grass, moss and blood from the cutting machine catcher bucket thing and from my raking. The job was so impressively done that a neighbour asked me if Fridge Junior had given us a rough night and that she had not noticed that we had cut the grass. Cheeky neighbour! She obviously thought I looked exhausted and had not noticed that she could see the front of the house again. I am off to look up the dictionary.


From http://www.thefreedictionary.com/
TACT: 1. Acute sensitivity to what is proper and appropriate in dealing with others, including the ability to speak or act without offending.

Hmmm.


Now the other fun thing that happened is that on Saturday Mrs Fridge and I had Fridge Junior on the play gym, naked as he was born, to allow his little touch of nappy rash to heal. He has been bathed and cleaned and changed and cleaned again, so he was looking so nice and lovely that I picked him up to hug and kiss. In return my loving child peed on me then crapped through my hand and onto my t-shirt and jeans and, well everything. I ended up washing my clothes and showering! Wee thing! How Mrs Fridge laughed. Mr Fridge laughed the next day when he had his first projectile vomit on Mrs Fridge, over her hand, trouser leg, newspaper and new sofa!

That’s my boy!

Mr Fridge Re-emerges

Hello Reader,

Mr Fridge reemerges into the web world and has been chastised by Mrs 4444. Mr Fridge is heartened to see that he has at least one avid reader. Mr Fridge has obliged, but more to finding himself with some time and I intend to keep the world up to date!

Ella and Pirate have been very kind and sent over a lovely present from just right of down under, from New Zealand. It is a Buzzy Bee ready for Fridge Jr (renamed again) to play and drag about him. It is not fair to single out one gift, but that is the furthest travelled. Everyone on Liam's new friends have been sooo generous and kind and we thank everyone who send him gifts and cards and love.

Mr Fridge is also glad of the weekend and he is so looking forward to building all the furniture that was delivered yesterday. His back to work week was busy and in every office he went to I had the first few hours of every day 'lost' to work as loads of very nice fellow Q people asked after Mrs Fridge and Fridge Junior. Not that that was a problem, it just meant that Mr Fridge had the pleasure of showing of all his pictures he has of his son!

Oh! Teas out so I will be back on line again soon!

Night all.

Oh, what a mum Mrs Fridge is! Mr Fridge is very proud and loves her even more!

Ice Boy is a Week Old!

Hello Reader,

Mr Fridge has had the most excellent week! Mrs Fridge has been doing a superlative job being a Mother and we have had a few visitors over to meet the new Fridge. Below we see Mr Fridge Dad, or Ice Boy's Granddad, who came on Friday for a hold and a cuddle.




Mr Fridge Brother and Austrianland Partner, Ice Boy Uncle and Aunt, sent over Ice Boy his first political statement T-Shirt! He loved it so much that he managed to 'poo' over the back of it in under an hour! Sorry Austrialand Aunt and Uncle, but he loves his T-Shirt.

Mr and Mrs Fridge would also like to thank all the nice comments and cards and gifts and kindness shown by everyone to us and Little Liam. We are touched and blessed with such a son and friends

Well, since I last put any news in here we have been though a great deal! We moved out of Property Empire and got it all cleaned up ready for our tenants to move in the next day and hopefully rent it for some time yet! We moved into Fridge Manor, just outside of town, in fact, we now live in a village and we are enjoying the quiet life, easy parking and garden. Moving in here was quiet painless with everyone turning up on time and most things fitting through the front door. We are now mostly unpacked but are just waiting for some ordered furniture to arrive to allow us to finish off our move in. Then there was the birth of Ice Boy (promoted from Ice Shelf as he is out and free now!).

Ice Boy has also been having fun peeing on Daddy mid way through nappy changes and also pooing once he has been changed and dressed at 3.30am! He is so lovely. Kissed him to sleep this afternoon.

Okay, Mr Fridge is back on line and posting.

In the Next Post, I reveal where Hecule Poirot has been living recently.
