The Diary of a Nobody

Being the modern day record of Charles Pooter VI -
direct descendant of the 19th Century original


Tuesday, April 21, 2009

Hardly slept a wink because I was fretting so much about having got David and Annie to come all the way up from Beckenham to see the show, then he’d paid for the tickets, and to cap it all, the play was rubbish. I wrote a withering e-mail to Dominic, the internet wine chap who’d given me the voucher, saying “Considering we had to pay for our seats, we did our best to apreciate the show”. I thought this line was particularly cutting, and I asked Carrie how many p’s there were in appreciate. She said “One”. After I’d sent the mail, I did a spell check and found it’s actually two. I was very irritated at this.

Decided not to worry myself any more about David and Annie. As Carrie wisely pointed out “We can sort it out by asking them up from Beckenham some time next week for a meal”.


Why shouldn’t
I publish
my diary?

I often see memoirs by people I’ve never even heard of and I don’t see why my diary should be any less interesting, just because I’m not a ‘celebrity’. I only wish I’d started it when I was younger.
