I thought my hearing was bad but then got a new telly box and sound bar and realised the old telly box was shite. Mind you my hearing is genuinely all over the place after years of gigs.

Pardon! Iām the same. I also used to wear a huge pair of headphones and turn the volume right up. Little wonder I am hard of hearing now.

My mum had the right idea, a man 4 years younger.
We have some speakers he got about 15-20 years ago (they pre-date me). I am very surprised he has not upgraded them as he likes a bit of tech. He did get some new cables and he tells me that they sound much better. Iāve suggested some surround sound / sound bar but he is just not up for that. When we look at houses he has to work out where these blooming large speakers are going to fit.

Make sure you get a shed and tell him to go and make a sound insulated man-cave and put the speakers in there.
That should keep him out from under your feet while you sit back with a more modern sound system. Simples.

The Census. 
Not only do we have to do our own, Lady Slowlane and myself have had to gather all the staff together to register their details too. WHATAPALLAVA!
Many of them have only a tenuous grasp of the English language so weāve had a rough guess at most of their details. It seems some of them even have a first nameā¦something of an affectation if you ask me. Even Chambers claims to have one although I have my doubts.
Donāt forget to do itā¦if you also have staff it will be a Ā£1000 fine if you miss any of them.

Weāre still waiting for details of his speakers. Stop teasing. 
So thatās a no on pink, then?
Let me ask you something. Why it is okay for sad old gits to do their business in pink but not footballers?
I donāt do pink. Iām historically a metaller and itās not in my palette. The missus got me a pink tie for work saying it would bring out my feminine side.
It did not. It got put in my filing cabinet drawer of shite and lived there for two years.
Grounds for divorce. No judge would fail to back you.
Grounds for a long term project. A short while after that, the perpetual hair growth began. There you go, love. Long hair is feminine, right?
She wasnāt happy with that. Youād think that when the last millimetre of my balls dropped at the age of 38 and I could finally grow a fucking beard, a very masculine thing and a potential counterbalance for my girly locks, sheās not happy with that either.
āCut it offā, she said for years. Then āGrow it backā, the minute I took it off.
These days, I have a long girly hair and a fuck off manny beard that wants to head south into Alan Moore territory. She no longer suggests barbering alterations.
For my part, I will happily wear her pink dressing gown about the house.
I think itās a fair trade.
