Life for Lola

Had an evening at Mr C and Mr D's last night. Had a rather lovely Chinese and a considerable amount of red wine. This morning I feel a little bit marinaded and somewhat garlicky and ver, ver tired - sitting at the computer isn't welcome and if it were not for the fact that I have just had some time off work I would have quite willingly "swung the lead."

Had my first mince pie last night, I know it's naughty and quite, quite wrong but I couldn't resist, Mr C and Mr D rival me in their love of Christmas and have by all accounts bought up the trimmings already. It was very agreeable indeed.

We got on to the subject of all the posh cars youngsters are driving and Mr C made a valid point. As mortgages are unattainable around these parts as house prices are astronomical, youngsters hoping to get a foot on the ladder have no choice but to live at home until they are 40 and therefore have disposable incomes, therefore they splash out on ego boosting, flash cars as away of expressing their worth and position in society. I think he may be right......he's very rarely wrong.
