Wow, its really dragging itself out isn't it, the enquiry into press intrusion and phone hacking has been ongoing for such a long time I have even forgot when it started!
All the enquiry seems to be about is passing the blame to someone else, one of the most overused phrases of the enquiry seems to be " not too the best of my knowledge"!
Its seems like this hacking was widespread and many celebrities were affected but lets face it, many of them wanted and needed the publicity. Some of these celebrities would be really upset if the media didn't chase them for stories, they love the publicity.

UK Winter Weather
It makes me laugh watching the TV regarding this cold wintry spell the weathers going through at the moment. We do like to panic and worry don't we! I have seen councils having to reassure people that they have plenty of salt for the roads and so on. Its only a short wintry spell, its hardly like we have had an artic winter! British people love to worry about things and secretly enjoy making contingency plans in case the worst happens, lets just get on with it and stop worrying about the what ifs!

Car Insurance Dodgers
I hate paying car insurance as much as anyone else but I pay it because I have to, I wouldn't think of driving my car without valid insurance. I have just been reading that us honest people, the ones who pay for insurance on our cars pay a higher premium to compensate for those who don't bother with insurance. That stinks doesn't it, just because others can't be bothered to insure their cars we have to pay.

Trolley Rage! I hate shopping!
Walking around my local supermarket, I didn't realise how competitive and dangerous people can become, all to get a bargain. It was trolley against trolley as these people were just oblivious to anyone around them, all they could focus on was the sale rail.
I always thought that we lived in a civilised society, I think I must have been wrong. The sight of these people shoving and pushing each other so that could grab a handful of cheaper clothing was nothing short of embarrassing. Scavengers, that's what they were, every single one of them. The shop manager must have sat in his office, watching these people on the shops security cameras laughing his socks off at their desperate scavenging.
For me when I need to go shopping, I go straight in get what I want and get out of the shop. If I can get something a bit cheaper that's great, but I wouldn't degrade myself like these people did to get myself at the front of the queue for a bargain.

People moaning about Christmas
Walking around the shops recently I couldn't help but hear people moaning about Christmas. They were moaning about the all the fuss and cost just for one day of the year, yet there they were trolleys full of trees and decorations in the scrum of a supermarket! I agree that Christmas is over hyped and over commercialised, but that is only because deep down we enjoy it and with all the doom and gloom around, too right we should all enjoy it.
Christmas shouldn't be about the biggest tree with the most amount of lights as possible, nor should it be about expensive presents. Really it should be about getting together with family and friends and being grateful for the chance of being together. Forget about the stresses of everyday life, and for one day enjoy being together. If you feel the need to spend a handful of cash to decorate to get in the festive mood then do it, Christmas is the one day when we can all forget our troubles and celebrate.
