It's A Hardknock Life

Honestly!

Turn my back for a minute and my lover behaves like a mouse when the cat's away.

Well he needs to look out 'cos I'm back - claws sharper than ever.

Actually he's lucky because he is in my good books tonight.

We had my son and daughter over for supper. It's the first time my boy has met my lover so it was a big night.

My lover was on his best behaviour - to such an extent he managed to last almost the whole evening without saying one bad thing about Arsenal. His one little slip was forgivable, given the high quality of the food he cooked.

Anyway, one of the things we talked about was that I promised to buy my son an Arsenal top. Trouble is he can't decide whether to go for home or away. I offered to buy him the other for Christmas but that doesn't work for him.

Sometimes life is so tough.
