I'm off to see the wizard!

I'm very disappointed. The people I was buying the flat from pulled out of negotiations today; I'm not sure exactly why, but I suspect they had a more lucrative offer.

Ouch, falling off the ladder hurts!

Oh well, I'm not going to let it spoil my holiday; I'm off to see my friend Liz get married in Kansas. Perhaps if I just follow the yellow brick road somewhere over the rainbow then all my troubles will be far away...oh no I feel a sudden urge to burst into a rendition of this cheesy american ditty...

"Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?"

...ahh, that's better; right I'm off to pack my sparkly red shoes, catch you later!
