Pay Day for us today. We have enough to pay the bills, buy food (carefully) but not enough to buy oil to run the Rayburn. I’m thinking of starting a GOFUNDME for £600 to heat our home over Christmas. NO JOKE : Martin Liedtke started a GOFUNDME for £5000 to buy himself a boat. F A C T.
Get on the carousel

the roundabout is just beginning

it’s fun to see the world a-spinning
get on the carousel

your happiness is waiting for you

I feel so dizzy I wanna go
Listen!
Now I don’t think I can take much more
So can’t you tell ’em to make it slow
Listen!

I’m feeling sick and I wanna stop
Spinning!
So won’t you let me get off this thing?
I got a feeling I reached the top
Spinning!
I only wanted to dance and sing
