    His dad died of alcoholism. He says because of that he has stayed teetotal. But if it's in his genes he may have succumbed ?

    Forecast for next few days is dry during the day. So that means more snow and rain then !

    I knew it was over with my ex missus when she tried to get me a job on the oil rigs. I said was it because the money is really good ? She said no, but you will work away for months. Charming !

    Peter Kay

    Just announced he's cancelled all his tour shows the whole lot. Stating "Family issues " as the reason. Bet his fans aren't happy with that news ? I like his Car Share comedy, but to be honest is he as funny live now as he was when he first came on the scene ?

    Books

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes the smell of books especially new ones. Although I get funny looks in WHSmiths !

    What are you currently listening to?

    Bono is really disliked and he is a bit up himself. But as a band I rate them and they're a great live act. I dislike a fair few musicians/bands but U2 isn't one of them !

    I've seen Def Leppard at Monsters of Rock many years ago. The drummer had lost an arm in a car crash,he had a special drum kit made. They were okay but a bit poppy and not really rock.

    What are you currently listening to?

    U2 on BBC 1 tonight at 9 p.m. Not everyone's cup of tea these days, but I've seen them live twice and they are a great stadium band. Joshua Tree is an outstanding album and just for that they have to be respected ?

    Love snow

    You have to be ultra careful in these conditions obviously. I've only come off the ladders once, that was when my co worker decided to walk away from footing them, as he thought they looked safe. I landed in a heap on to snow luckily but lay there covered head to foot in it ! My mate was in...

    Had to come back home as the paths too icy,so struggling to get the ladders to stay upright. Plus one customer said what's the point as it'll snow again ? Should thaw out though so hopefully back out again tomorrow or Thursday.

    Female Rock Singers

    . I've never ever thought or said while watching/listening to a band with a female singer that it was poor,or ruined a song. In fact Rock music seems suited to a woman's voice for some reason. I saw Blondie a few years ago when she called herself Deborah Harry in Brum, she fronted her new all...

    Death list 2017

    A customer of mine died last year aged 101. She was a lovely Irish lady. I asked her what's the secret to a long life ? She replied being teetotal and not smoking. My mum was both of those but died aged 62. Work that out Sherlock !

    I can see the headline now " window cleaner pops off on his round." What were his final words ? He said " Do I still get a Christmas tip ? "

    Female Rock Singers

    My ex missus was a big fan of Tina Turner so I treated her to her concert at the NEC some years back. I wasn't that bothered as I thought she'd be a bit pop and soul.By the end of the night I was proved wrong as she had a great rock voice,and gave a great performance !

    I used to do voluntary work at basic skills workshops.Helping adults with their literacy and numeracy problems. Really rewarding and I enjoyed it, and it was good to know you helped someone progress. But it was only a few hours a week so I fitted it in with my work. Yet you had to set homework...
