Where The F**k are my dollars Lloyds bank!!!!!

I am a few days behind on this people so i will try and catch up to date in the next couple. but i will start from Friday. And thanks for all your support i managed to open some of my mails and see them coming in. Please pass on my blog to others who are interested in supporting me.
Well Friday 19th got here as it always does and i went down to the bank to pick up my ordered USD's. After umpteen phone calls on a prime rate number to my phone bank and being put on hold during the week to get this cash pick up. It was nowhere to be seen at the bank. 1:30pm was aproaching and the securicor van man had walked through the local branch with his box while i was on the phone. The assistant followed him into the no go section and scanned the box for my dosh. She returned shaking her head. Bollocks thats that then!!! I decided to get off home and get me strides on and a good shirt before Jo took me up the bus station. All my gear was packed and ready to go. I just had to remember to take my passport out of my shorts and pack it into the newly bought arse bag.
I stood at the station after Jo had gone and realised my head was in a bit of a spin after that episode. I needed a quick stiffener to calm down but no time he bus had arrived.
I sat beside a lad who was of to Indo. He had married a girl there and had a Kid by her. He was off to teach english. we talked the entire trip and soon we were unloading the cases from the bus. (The first encounter) Cheers see ya later and good luck Mate.

Well i hadnt noticed but when i got off i realised i needed a download. so getting to the departures I looked around for the nearest down load cafe. But before this i decided to Check the e ticket..........wait for it......Shit where is my black bum bag ...words like Passport credit card documents Arh!!!!!!!!!shit. A cold panic came over me. It was the end of the world. How was i gonna face the people rushing to back my hair brained scheme. How far did you get Paul. well er didnt go. what a tosser. anyway i had a burning desire to get rid of something and i know i cant concentrate when i have that feeling. So that came first. Its funny how it changes things. I emerged with the logical head in charge and decided to have another crack at unpacking my bags infront of everyone checking in. and hunt meticulousely. Relief is a good feeling alomost gets you high for a moment. well that black bag turned up and in it my passport. Sound man!!............Safely on the seat row 17F. I relaxed with a couple of G and T doubles. and reflected. Its true what they say when things go wrong blame others. I tend to do it a lot normally Jo gets it. Rushing out the house, not having time to change and check myself before getting off as she wanted to go to work and wanted to leave early as she had a different route in and shes paranoid of being late. What am i thinking of its the banks bloody fault for not getting my money to me in time. and putting me in that position. You wait Lloyds I am gonna complain and get my phone money back for putting in experienced staff on and putting me on hold. 25 mins at a time. Never mind buying other banks out. look after you customers..........PS downloading makes you think clearly. Paul
