About Me

My photo
I'll be 55 this August... I've had bronchiectasis for ten years plus this year... End stage lung disease for the past year...been on oxygen for three years... and have I got used to it yet?... nah! I am now waiting for the biggie; a double lung and maybe a heart transplant. I love my life weirdly enough, because I have some wonderful family and friends who are with me every step of the way on my adventures, even though I embarrass them on a daily basis with my unorthodox way of looking at life. Not for the faint hearted!

Brown, Cameron and Clegg

I'm sitting here listening to the 'Big Debate', which I did actually promise myself I wouldn't listen to, but here I am trying not to have a rematch of shouting at the TV.
My poor TV is still in shock from my language at Sophie Dahl's cookery show the other night, as she said the word melancholy in every sentence with the clever camera shots. I know the show was based on the word and comfort food, but surely there are other words she could have used so not to make the air blue as well as my mood?
In my view only the very rich or the folk that think they are arty farty and don't actually work can indulge in being melancholy, the rest of us get a kick up the bum and get on with life. Yes we all cook comfort food, but we don't all sit in a very large and beautiful garden house which is bigger than my front room reading Winnie the Poo without a child in sight!

My views so far on tonight's debate are; David Cameron is a smarmy git, Nick Clegg isn't very good at arguing his point; he stumbles too much and Gordon Brown, well I really don't know what to say about him, apart from I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him.
I know that I applaud the NHS as they have helped me non-stop with my illness, but I think Labour hasn't done it's self a lot of favours over the last few years. I remember very bad times under Mrs Thatcher too; we lost our home for starters. I liked Paddy Ashdown and thought he could have been a strong leader, but Nick Clegg seems a bit wet behind the ears.

So who to vote for... or is it three photos on the dart board time and me in a blindfold????

Lots of love Debbie x
