The Diary of Real Britain
I'm a 57 Year old Disabled man. I have worked for 37.5 continuous years. This Podcast Chronicles the struggles I have while making the journey of life. From putting food on the table to looking after the car and cat. From doing the shopping and going to work. From going to the gym and socialising. And carrying out my political activism. I then keep the Diary of Real Britain to tell people of this journey. To tell them of the Britain I live in.

Monday. A normal monday as I spend the morning on my laptop and then in the afternoon go to the gym. Then after a short rest at home its off to the hospital to see the wife. Tuesday. I have some good news at last! My mum is going to be discharged from hospital BUT! she will have carers with her. But she is happy that she is going home. Wednesday. Its a quiet day which is unusual because its very quiet and hardly anyone around. I don't visit my wife tonight as I have a zoom meeting. Thursday. Again the usual routine. I go to work and then in the evening I go and see my wife in hospital. But when I get to her ward I have a shock she isn't there. I see the nurse-in-charge and she gives me an update on her and tells me which ward she is on. So I go and see her. Friday. Its the last working day of the week and there are no surprises. I go home have my dinner and then in the evening I have my evening session at the gym. Saturday. Is again the usual routine. Get up slowely and then in the afternoon spend the time with my wife and then home. Sunday. Again the usual happens watch t.v as I getup and then head for Bar HIll for the weekly shop and then home. And in the evening have my roast ready meal.
