Came the day for Lily to get wed
To her handsome boyfriend, name of Jed
Her dress was lace, in sparkling white
A veil, tiara, she was a pretty sight 
And up the aisle by her Pa she was led.


The music played and all looked good
Everything going the way that it should

  I watched the Peaky Blinders film on Netflix a couple of days back.. Brummie accent was a struggle for me.. I loved the series.. Was the film worth it ?  Maybe not..

I watched it Scrumps, I think you had to be a fan of the series to appreciate the film.  I gather lots of characters were missing from the film.

I've got a water meter, I pay mine monthly £34.   

Branches down here in some parts, the wind is awful.  Didn't stop me going out though, coffee from M & S and chocolate from IKEA that's me set up for tomorrow.

Brian's bruise got tongues wagging
His forehead swelled and his jaw was sagging
A 'lover's tiff' the gossips said
Eric kicked him out of bed 
We'd heard it said he kept on nagging.

Tax. A few years ago, out of idle curiosity, I tried to work out how much tax I had paid since leaving school at 16. All forms of tax, income, council, fuel duty, booze, etc. I quite quickly passed a million ( allowing for inflation) and gave up before I really frightened myself
