So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

A daily post, whatever next. Its been a wee while since I last visited Mr Tweede. Last time I was round in sunshine world he was decrying my rather hipy length hair. Since then thewife has cut it for me, rather on the short side. Mr Tweede reckons I should not wear a black shirt with a haircut like this.So there's me home from work to mail from the bank and I'm thinking shit, not already, its a week till payday and I cannot possibly have exceeded the overdraft this month. Surely not, okay when you start to look at it I may have. So I start totting up the figures and realise that they have reduced the overdraft which sort of means that yes I could well be overdrawn, so I start to put finger to keyboard to ask them for food parcels and the like, only to get to the point where I notice that the account number is wrong, its an old account which I dont use any more. I get regular statements saying the balance is � 0.00. I have no chequebook and certainly no guarantee card so what the hell is going on. Do banks make mistakes? Immediate panic over, back on our heads so to speak.
