Another Christmas Gone
January 6, 2009 No CommentsOne last bah humbug, it’s something that never fails to amaze me, how three wise men and a baby can cause so much aggravation while claiming gift giving and a twelve day holiday can bring peace and happiness to the world. And on that note, Happy New Year! I hope you have a happy and successful one.
Yes I had a fantastic Christmas thank you and the new year has kicked off, dragging me along with it kicking and screaming as others can and will no doubt attest. So not to deny a new start a new start I’ve tried to join in. The Christmas period has left me a little light money wise – as it should hohoho - despite selling heavily over the holiday period, gems such as giftland.co.uk and buya.co.uk were disposed of cheaply along with several other good names.
The good news is I am back catching – it was at a hefty cost to myself in arranging the deal early January but going forward it enables me to catch again and sell in the short term to recouperate the deal’s losses. In the current climate, no not the recession, the one where a girl receives all the attention, new ways have to be found to keep everyone happy including the business manager, the mortgage provider and not forgetting the landlord too.
The boxes are being ticked, caught up with mortgage, yes, paid nominet, yes, paid landlord, no but will when my tenant finally pays me… on a diet, yes not that I put on any weight over christmas, thank the Lord, the first Christmas in eight years that I haven’t, we ate enough, I was always full and I was happy, there’s a show of strength and happiness in itself. Joined a gym, yes, going to gym, kind of…
More good news, I finally found £170 to pay for that absurd Home Information Pack that you are required to have ‘commenced’ before you can market your house, so with that ordered Tuesday, estate agents have been instructed and away we go to save some more before this horrible government and its means and ways loses me more of my money. Hopefully the house will sell for a reasonable amount.
Do you want to see what I caught this year so far? OK, as you asked so nicely and I see you’re brimming with excitement, I have caught, br1.co.uk sunstones.co.uk languagecourses.org.uk highwayrobbery.co.uk retailing.org.uk and myrights.co.uk. Yes there were better names but I haven’t been able to go after them. I’ve already sold retailing.org.uk for £40, the domain should have gone for at least £100 but I rushed it.
It’s a good job as retailing.org.uk didn’t really fit the story. As I was riding my horse drawn carriage through Bromley, BR1.co.uk postcode, my ears were suddenly pricked by gun fire and a foul mouthed man riding up fast behind. The carriage was pulled over and I clenched my valuable sunstones.co.uk jewellery to my chest. “stand and deliver” came the shout.
This was highwayrobbery.co.uk and in the BR1.co.uk area of all places. I shouted to the man that he should watch his words, he was swearing blind every few seconds and I carefully advised he should take up languagecourses.org.uk but before I could say another word, he had grabbed my sunstones.co.uk and was riding off into the distance, I dared to shout “I know myrights.co.uk” but by then it was far too late.
I’m off to look at today’s list and go to sleep, need to be at the gym for ten.
