Model Railway bits and bobs? Tell me moreMrs.Punal has been totally unsympathetic in my desire to attend all our Europa League fixtures - both home and away. I am retired (disgracefully!) so any dosh for going to football comes out of the pension. How are you going to pay for all these extra games and the travelling, she demands. I’ll find a way, I reply in my best Mr.Micawber stance.
Mrs.Punal is non-plussed and looks through the on-line job vacancies for something suitable. I‘ve found one for you, she exclaims, they’re recruiting for an elf for Christmas to work in Santa’s grotto. She’s serious. I look aghast, I’m 6 foot 2 inches tall FFS! How the hell can I be an elf? Never mind, she continues, they’re also looking for someone to be Father Christmas now that would suit you perfectly.
I have now given up the will to live. The trip into the loft is my next hope to see what can be flogged off - old CDs, Vinyl LPs, Model Railway bits and bobs, stuff for a car boot sale - you name it.
So, any recommendations, tips, advice, anything regarding my predicament would be greatly appreciated. Muchas Gracia!
