LAUNDRETTA, WHO IS Matran’s girlfriend:— über-long hours hard-Working Girl extraordinaire, a Girl with enough emotional probs that, floated out on the North Atlantic, they’d reprimand the Titanic — peasy:— this Laundretta girl collared me in the hall as I skulked unwittingly home this afternoon & DELUGED me with her amaranthine emotional needs.
Her silver watch and earrings: she took them off last night & somewhere…. Hid them… Now they’re not in the appointed place… (??)…
The query being NOT just did Matran nick 'em & pipe them in the form of cocaine crack. (He’s off all that now, she insists. Which I don’t believe for a second. But he might have cut down because he has put on a great deal of weight, a telltale sign of cocaine abstinence.) But rather:— do I believe he took the jewellery, which is fresh enough to appear brand new, so she says, to give as a gift to either his “bit on the side” girlf or his babymother. —?
I don’t know! And told her this. But did keep listening and smoking…
Between her revealing this and us imbibing a can of alcohol and three cigs each and the Evil Landlord taking up clonking about downstairs (because this conversation took place in the hallway on neutral ground; all quiet and Matran at his weekly drugs test (which he either fakes or fails — surely —)) at least a half-hour of vague chitchat elapsed. Nothing is sorted. Laundretta put my head in a washing machine spin-cycle tizz with the stress of it all.
And now she’s so upset she’s vandalizing Matran’s room all lovely & nice for when he gets home…

You were right, completely different experience. I like reading it, but in the beginning I had no idea what you were saying. But then I started getting what you were talking about.
Thanks for the link to my site.
That's fine. I left a comment right at the beginning of yours as well. Don't know if your email tells you that...
she's got her knickers in a twist...is that how you'd say it? (i'm canadian, go easy on me)
Yep knickers in a twist is it!! Those are lovely pixx of your local "environs" btw.!!
thank you. and i love your other blog too. i'm another sausage upender. good to meet you (sort of)
that came out wrong. It's good to meet you. The sort of is that we're not really "meeting".
I never realized so many people did that with their sausages..!!
smart people
Have I missed something with the sausages???
As usual your blog is entertaining. I just know the woman you are talking about...you meet them in every town..
BTW thanks for dropping by..and yes! I'm with you I think Big Brother is the biggest load of junk food for the mindless...

Oh, right! All it was, was I gave a recipe for cooking sausages, the only Gledwoodization being that after browning the outsides, you chop them into sections and sear them closed so you have a contrast between the juicy sausages and the crispy exteriors... You need a high heat to do it properly (I'd say)...
Manda (despite still being unwell) dropped round so I lost my computer for an hour again so she could read your latest posts! Like me she feels your talent is wasted....you write SO WELL, have a brilliant vocabulary, speak languages.........so talented!!!!
Yes I wish I could get paid to write. I really wish that.!!. I'm poking about trying to find out precisely how (apart from the obvious, write a book) I mean get paid a bit quicker than that...
As for the languages I have to go live abroad seriously to improve them to a full-on level bc I rang an employment agency that specialized in them a few years ago asking 1. which language (German every time) and 2. how good? They said A level isn't good enough you need to be fully fluent. I've got the A level but I'd need to go live there even just for 6 months... yes I know what you mean about wasted. I get told that a lot.
PS HI MANDA!! YOU KNOW ALL ABOUT ME NOW!!!!!
Thanks for letting me know you are ok. I plead guilty too, after 4 months of blogging, there is always more to do to try to make the blog better (hmm, wonder if it really works?)Your's look great now.
I linked to your blog on my recipe blog, seems it is getting more visitors at the moment and hey, food is always good!
Stay well

Oh yes, will catch up will all your new posts over the weekend.
Sorry, but I don't realize what you mean. Can't you explain it to me?
Thank you. Danny
P.S.: everybody has an addiction or two.

Okay, what I mean is, I see what the warning is about now... when I went into yours I couldn't read the text but the pixx looked pretty "regular" to me - THEN I saw what those cartoon guys were doing... so I see why the warning now!!
