1 September - Things can only get better

Wasp’s nest discovered and maybe dealt with. Several dead on window ledges and one attacking this computer screen right now. Ancient gas boiler broken, inspected and hopefully replaced tomorrow. Dentist. Day trip to Ramsgate. Car serviced and passed MOT. Four new tyres on Friday afternoon. It has been a busy and expensive week.

I looked at an Air Source Heat Pump but the cost would be in the region of ten times that of an old boiler. Boris Johnson and his green revolution, inspired I suspect by his old boiler Carrie, is utterly mad isn’t he?

Storage batteries filled on an overnight so called cheap rate is beginning to look more sensible.

I feel strangely optimistic about the prospect of Bozo being replaced by Liz Truss. 15% VAT, no Inheritance Tax, National Insurance cut. The end of the war on motorists. Advisory Motorway speed limit and no more Smart M ways. A more intelligent energy strategy. Getting tough with China. Sorting out the Northern Ireland problem. Maybe fishing too. No more Covid lockdowns. Getting rid of Sadiq Khan and stamping on Nicola Sturgeon.

See? Running the country properly is easy isn’t it?

What did Boris Johnson actually achieve as Prime Minister? Botched Brexit. Ordered too many Covid vaccines and took a principled stand on Ukraine. Not missed anything have I? What a wastrel he has proved to be.
