Can somebody please help her out, I am a bit busy at the minute.
My Dear Beloved,
This is Ms Irene Nowak from Estonia writing from hospital here in Ivory Coast, therefore this email is very urgent to attend. I want you to know that am dying here in this hospital right now and i don't know if i will see some days to come.
My Beloved, i was informed by my doctor that i got poisoned and it affected my liver, and i can only live for some few days. The reason why i contacted you today is because i know that my Step-mother wanted to kill me because of the inheritance i inherited from my late Father. I have a little adopted child named Andrew C. Nowak that i adopted in this Country when my late Father was alive and $3.5 million Dollars i inherited from my late Father. My Step-mother and her children they are after Andrew right now because they found out that Andrew was aware of the poison, and because i handed the documents of the fund over to him the day my step Mother poisoned my food, for that reason they do not want Andrew to expose them, so they are doing everything possible to kill him.
My Beloved, please i want you to help him out of this country with the money, he is the only one taking good care of me here in this hospital right now and even this email you are reading now, he is the one helping me out. I want you to get back to me so that he will give you the documents of the funds and he will direct you to a well known lawyer that i have appointed, the lawyer will assist you to change the documents of the funds to your name to enable the bank transfer the money to you..
This is the favor i need when you have gotten the funds:
(1) Keep 30% of the money for Andrew until he finish his studies to become a man as he has been there for me as my lovely Son and i promised to support him in life to become a medical Doctor because he always desire for it with the scholarship he had won so far. I want you to take him along with you to your country and establish him as your son.
(2) Give 20% of the money to handicap people and charity organization. The remaining 50% should be yours for your help to Andrew.
Note; This should be a code between you and my son Andrew in this transaction "Hospital" any mail from him, the Lawyer he will direct you to, without this code "Hospital" then it is not from Andrew, the Lawyer or myself as i don't know what will happen to me in the next few hours.
Finally, write me back urgent so that Andrew will send you his pictures to be sure of whom you are dealing with. Andrew is 14years of age, therefore guide him. Again if i don't hear from you i will look for another person or any organization.
May Almighty God bless you and use you to accomplish my wish. Pray for me always.
Ms Irene Nowak
The one thing I think I leant yesterday is that Post Office travel insurance is shite.

Big argument outside my house last night. Unusual in a tiny quiet village. Looking on Facebook I see that it was a neighbor arguing with a guy from the village who was letting off fireworks in the pub beer garden. She marched round to ask him to stop as the pub is literally surrounded by thatched cottages on all sides, including ours. The firework bloke lives close by in a tiled roof house and was arguing that no thatch property has ever caught fire from a firework on a rainy night. He is continuing to argue on Facebook this morning. Does this selfish idiot really think he has the right to test his assertion on our roofs? Thatch fires are utterly devastating to peoples lives, fireworks are just childish entertainment. I used to think this guy was cocky and arrogant but generally OK. I see I was wrong.
I filled up the tank and then gave my car away
Im currently sat in my daughters car on Morrisons petrol forecourt waiting for someone to come and drain the petrol shes just pumped in to her diesel fuel tank!
Meanwhile, her mother has taken her shopping!
🤬
Despite the smilies above you have my sympathy.

Thanks Marc; its just one of those things. Easily done I suppose!
I did it once in my van. Was exhausted. Probably didnt improve my mood but its the kind of lesson you dont forget if you have to go through the pain. I am not sure going shopping whilst dad does the waiting and the paying qualifies. The birthday may

My left eyelashes always leave streaks on my glasses. This is annoying a) because streaks and b) because lack of symmetry.
I have semi-skimmed milk in coffee, and skimmed milk in tea.
If it is ever switched, then the world ends.
I don't. Anything other than full fat is just wrong. In every sense of the word. It's not as if full fat has much more fat than semi. What odd tastes you guys have.
Putting any sort of milk into coffee is just wrong. Wierdos.
Okay, but could you really manage a full 12oz mug of espresso, black? On the rare occasions I have cream in the house one small portion goes into coffee to make it velvety.

Watch the video.
Oh god I laughed guiltily.
Cadburys creme eggs are not what they were.
Treated myself to a packet of Rowntree's fruit pastilles from the garage on my way home today. Out of the 10 pastilles inside, 8 were black, one was red, and there was a solitary green one.
8 black ones!! Unheard of. I'm so happy.
In your face Mr Roundtree!
I've eaten steak every night this week. Gonna die young and happy
You lucky lucky bugger!!

I've just read an article in the online version of my local paper about the proliferation of pop-up brothels in Ayr.
Lo & behold, the advert that appeared on the side of the page was entitled, 'Meet Single Women In Ayr'.
Private Eye calls that a 'Malgorithm': I call it quite funny!

Not sure what to have for dinner later.. Last night's macaroni cheese or a takeaway.
What is it about people who stand on (horizontal) travelators that make me think they are a complete waste of space.
I love watching the curling. It's very relaxing.
It would appear that Belgian fire alarm tests include a glass of bubbly and waffles in a local cafe. Pas mal.
Even though I approach the task with the level of respect typically shown by someone opening Arkwright's till, I'm fed up with getting the kind of static shocks that Tesla would have been proud to create when I'm emptying the tumble drier
I see no reason to stick my beak in.
Anyone else think Bowerman's Nose in Dartmoor looks like Glenn Quagmire crossed with Thing from Fantastic Four, or is it just me?

Double knee surgery today.
Someone who lies about the little things will lie about the big things too.
This week I have mostly been drinking rerfidgerant.
Four people have been shot in the park outside.

I bought a tin of Spam yesterday. I'm not really sure why.
Who would have thought that doing a hot wash with washing up liquid would have been such a no-no :(
Wife and kids complaining of the washing machine smelling, so thought I'd do the normal put in a packet of washing machine magic cleaner stuff, out of stuff so thought washing up liquid, cuts through the grease and grime.
Now after a couple of hours of cleaning a sud filled kitchen and 4-5 washes later with lots of mopping the washing machine is at last sud free.
I won't point out that detergent is low-suds, for just such a reason. I suppose you've guessed that now.
