June

Well I thought that from June on it was supposed to be sun, sun, sun and more sun but it's where are my wellies time for the last few days all we've had is rain. The river Drava which is the heart of Osijek is starting to overflow to where people used to walk and sit fishing, the main reason apart from the rain which is a contributing factor is water coming from other countries and filling our river to overflowing. It's funny how everyone is down in the dumps because of the constant rain and everyone longs for the sunny days to return especially me and the dogs, its hard for them to have a poo when it's tipping down all they want to do is sleep like as though they were hibernateing. It makes you feel as if you're in some other country which has rain almost all the time not in supposedly sunny Croatia, not good for the tourists who come to Croatia for its beauty and climate, sorry guys, ha, ha, better luck next year. What do people actually do when it rains constantly apart from twiddle their thumbs, an interesting question, watch telly, nothing but rubbish on, play games on the computer, bad for your eyes and backside, housework, what's the point of that when it will just get dirty again because of the rain, it's boring not having anything to do. Never mind perhaps in a few days the sun will show it's warm face again and everyone will be in better spirits hopefully I write. Well I assume that there are some people happy like farmers who don't have to constantly water their crops, fish who are always wet, ducks and swans and other birds that like the rain, the terror of everyone who has a garden weeds and grass, now they can enjoy themselves before being pulled out of the ground or the mower chops their heads off, for us when it's raining at least we don't have to do those jobs, yippee. The tempature has dropped significantly and it's time to find something warm to wear which is hard because you packed away all your winter clothes because it's so called summer and all you have is summer clothes in your wardrobes, never mind the sun will come back I'm sure of it so for the time being just put up with the cold and rain and wait with anticipation for the sun to return. Well that's all the depressing news from my wet blog hopefully tomorrow will be better. Thanks for reading and if you sort of enjoyed reading it then like, follow and share. Thank you.

Luck

Luck, do you believe in it, like finding a four leaf clover, a bird shiting on you, is that going to bring you luck or do you just make your own luck? Some people have so called luck by winning the lottery, winning on online gambling or winning on the stock market, are these all attributed to luck, good question but if you think about it everything that you bet on is controlled by a computer or little balls spinning around in a plastic globe, you win, is that really luck? How do you define what luck really is, I'm not sure but I think you make your own luck. For instance I made my own luck by going to a cafe and meeting my wife who worked there, I made my own luck during the war in Croatia by doing what I had been taught and stayed alive, my wife and I were lucky enough to have three children when there are other married people who can't have children, are those examples of luck or destiny? In a way you could say that it was my destiny to get married not just luck, which is it ...

T+L

Well at long last it seems that there may be a break in our heatwave, last night after the temperature hitting a huge 40 degrees it started to thunder and lightning but did the heavens open for rain to fall, no only a few spots, I could probably drink more water than fell from the sky, at least it's a little cooler 19 and set to rise to a reasonable 35 degrees which is a bit more bearable. It's Sunday the end of the weekend and again it seems that my wife and I will be on our own, my youngest daughter and her fiance are going here and there to visit his family and I'm not sure if my eldest daughter will be here so it's going to be a weird Sunday but peaceful. It's going well for Ukraine from looking at all the media as Ukraine is still taking over more of russia and blowing up bridges so the idiot can't resupply his troops and he is also bombing his own country with missiles, what a shame the ordinary people who so called voted for the puppet master are having t...

The other foot

I bet that the president of Ukraine is now extatic when the shoe is on the other foot and the idiot in the Kremlin is getting a right good kicking. It's been so long since the people of Ukraine had something to be happy about and not feel miserable every day. They may be still losing their homeland little by little every day but I now think that perhaps the tide is turning. The incursion into the russian motherland which is the first time since WW11 is an early Christmas present after all the suffering that they have endured physically, mentally and the bodies of their loved ones coming home from the front in boxes. Now it's the turn of the russian people to be upset and experience what the ordinary people of Ukraine have for so long. The Ukrainians have gone on the rampage and are taking russian soil not inch by inch but mile by mile, now there's a sense of jubilation among the people of Ukraine and the mood of the ordinary people of Russia has turned against the puppet ma...
