All you need is love

Well today was an absolutely lovely day.

Today I went to Gnomes' wedding, it was such a joyous day and gnomes looks really really pretty!

the wedding took place in a lovely garden and then we proceeded to another part of the estate for the reception, it was great to see my old boss Steve . . . Not.... Oh shit hi Steve!
Gnomes Married Zach who is Steves' brother...

the food was great, as was the wine!
and we could not leave the wedding without being given a champers flute, a little bottle of wine and a wine opener and corker set. Not to mention that I was the first person to sign the guest register even before the family.

congratulations Naomi and Zach and all the best in your new life together.

Because of You

I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I try my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraid

Because of you
Because of you

I it is interesting how sometimes just by listening to lyrics can effect your emotions. I was just listening to this song by kelly clarkson and I just bust into tears.

well if im going to be a racist!

A kiwi was doing the Maori Haka whilst, somewhere in space, aliens were
watching this unusual dance. "Kamate kamate ka-ora ka-ora ......" loudly
sang the Kiwi.

The aliens were very intrigued, and wondered what would happen if part of
the Kiwi's brain was stealthily removed! So, with the aid of very
sophisticated technology, the aliens zapped a beam at the Kiwi's head, and
part of his brain instantly vaporised.

The aliens sat back to see what would happen. "Ka-mate ka-mate ka-ora
ka-ora......." sang the Kiwi. The aliens were amazed, absolutely no
difference in the Kiwi's behaviour.

So the aliens decided to zap a higher intensity beam at another part of
the Kiwi's brain. Again the aliens watched for results, and again the Kiwi
sang "Ka-mate ka-mate ka-ora ka-ora ."

The aliens naturally deduced that the Kiwi was an extremely intelligent
life-form, for with even a half a brain no difference had been noticed in
the Kiwi's behaviour.

The aliens decided to remove the complete brain, thus leaving the Kiwi
devoid of all knowledge! So with a push of a button the aliens zapped the
Kiwi's head and sizzled the remaining grey matter. Now surely the Kiwi
will know nothing, be dumb, and be so stupid.

The Aliens watched the Kiwi intently, and all of a sudden the Kiwi broke
into a forceful song "WALTZING MATILDA, WALTZING MATILDA .........."
