It's funny how, when you just shut up and listen, people think you are interesting.

 Firstly, thank you, Geon, for your interest in my blog and sorry that I haven't responded.

My mate Geon

To be honest, it has been an interesting week.

I got a call out, the other day, to a guy named Ben, who had a very badly blocked toilet. It took a couple of days to sort things out because his drain was blocked too. I got to spend too much quite a bit of time with Ben. Ben was a talker who didn't need any replies. Whenever I said something, he just carried on with what he wanted to tell me or started a new topic. My words were wasted. Funnily enough, I could have got the job done quicker if he had just shut up and listened. I'm not too sure how he relieved himself on the night in between. As I said, I couldn't get a word in.

A conversation should leave room for both people to listen and then say things. It requires both people to listen to what the other person is saying. It appears that some people just don't understand the concept of listening. 

There you go.

Again, thanks to Geon for showing so much interest in my blog.

Don't be a Catholic!

 Hi all.

I've recently been to a film about how Catholics and nuns (particularly) treated single young mums in Ireland.

'Small Things Like These.'

Gosh! The Catholic church has SO MUCH to answer for! It's full of sickos! I'm glad that I've passed through my 'let's find god' period unscathed!

Just a short post today because I'm working and there seem to be lots of blocked toilets. If you're using lots of toilet paper, flush halfway through the procedure but remember, "The job's not over until the paperwork's done."
