When Will It End?

So the elections are over, now we have the follow on crap, a hung parliament? wrong way round for me, now parliament hung...that appeals!

The dreadful thing is, I ignored the elections, didn't watch or read the news, went out and voted and then forgot about it all....

The reason I still know what's going on is because two people in work seems to care very passionately about politics, one is a Labour man, the other a Conservative....they argue and bicker like a pair of old maids about the merits of their chosen party, completely failing to see that Labour abandoned socialism a long time ago under Tony Blair and are now so far right of centre that they make the Tories look almost left wing, and they both seem to have missed the fact that it doesn't matter what the party is called, nothing changes, they promise the earth and deliver dust.

But that isn't the worst thing happening in my life at work right now. We have this chap in work, let's call him Bob, and Bob whistles, mostly tunelessly, along with whatever is playing on the radio, out of tune....off key....wayyyyy off tempo, and after the song finishes, he reprises it, striving for the right key and never getting close, varying the speed, trying to provide his own counterpoint harmony.....and failing...dismally! (By which time we've also missed the next song too) If we are REALLY in for a bad day, he goes into his repertoire of medlies, and totally ignores the radio...then we're treated to such gems as (all whistled out of tune and off key) "To Be a Pilgrim", "Two Little Boys", "Brown Girl In The Ring" and a whole host of others, including excerpts from the Seven Dwarves.........and when he runs out of inspiration, he stands in front of his machine, and makes noises very simular to a worried budgie that knows it's cage door is open and the cat is around.

He hasn't driven me all the way insane yet, you'll know when that happens.....it'll be an Old Bailey job.

PS I was asked why the blog was named "Dizzy Days", very simple, I suffer from a condition called Menier's Disease, which is a disorder of the inner ear, affecting balance and hearing, "characterised by episodes of vertigo and tinnitus and progressive hearing loss, usually in one ear. It is caused by lymphatic channel dilation, affecting the drainage of endolymph"

And it's been pretty bad lately, I take tablets called Betahistine to try and control it, and they do to a degree, but never the less, I do get very, very "Dizzy Days"
