31 October
No sign of an attempt to repost letter so had to get ready and go into village.
Went to P.O. and got letter, then to butchers for steak pie and finally to supermarket for Teachers and lemonade.
Called in pub and had one while looking through the window at the people braving the wind and squall to do their shopping.
Decided best place today would be home so returned to same.
Had to buy cheap store brand whisky because there weren’t any litre bottles of what I wanted.
Dropped a tablet of Big Grin, don’t suppose it will get a laugh out of me today.
I take a big swig of my drink and look through the window at the oppressive sky,
Not a good day to be out and about.
I’m sat listening to the wind howling in the chimney, nicely warmed by radiator, having ciggie and drink alongside me.

I went 17 hrs. without a rollie yesterday but immediately got up and went to shops for another packet this morning.

I intend to smoke and drink freely until I feel like returning to bed.
I’ve had my usual pie and stomach will no doubt appreciate it.
Tuesdays are usually written, nothing on the TV and on a day like today a waste of time.
I bought a nice large blue bowl, which I’ve earmarked for fruit. That’s four blue items I now have and together they will look good.
My mouth tastes of the baccy and I wash out with whisky.
Cheap whisky but I hope it will do its job, without too much upset.
I wonder on the wiseness of buying tablets but by the price I’ve paid its worth investigating.
The regulars of my club were all sat in the pub waiting for the club to open at 12.
One pint to wash down the pie was enough for me,
I’d rather have a long glass of spirit and mixer any day.
I decided to listen to the comedy channel and instantly am immersed in what I call Yankie humour.
There is a break for news but hell every Yankie station has to give out the blurb.
I intend to smoke several off the bat have three or four drinks and maybe take another tablet before going back to bed.
Hopefully the drink and tabs will bring on a relaxing sleep.
Why should a person want to use up the waking hours by going back to sleep?

Because it slows down the smoking and works.
I enjoy an afternoon kip.
My second drink is slowly disappearing and the ashtray is smoking my second rollie.
