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.

SMonday. Its an ordinary Monday morning. I start writing my next entries to the diary. Then in the afternoon its off to the afternoon session at the gym and then home for a bit of a rest and then in the evening its parish council. Tuesday. Its back to work and again its raining. Then in the evening its off to see my wife at brookfields and I know she is nearing discharge as she is begining to walk again. Wednesday. Its another boring day at work. During the day I get a phone call from brookfields asking me which care provider my wife has. Then after work I go and see my wife and then home. Thursday. Its a repeat of yesterday but without the phone call. I go and see my wife in the evening and tell her that I won't be seeing her until saturday. I spend the 90 minutes with her and then go home. Friday. Its the end of the working week and its a quiet day. I then go home change and in the evening head for my evening session at the gym. Saturday. I said to my wife that instead of visiting her in the afternoon I will be seeing her in the evening. So after housework I head for brook fields in the evening. However as I sit in the car park the phone rings but no one is on the other end of the line. I go and see my wife but only for 20 seconds as I am asked to leave due to an outbreak of Norovirus. Sunday. Sunday is the usual. Just read the Sunday papers and then off to Bar Hill for the weekly shop and then home. Later I have my Sunday Roast ready meal some you tube and then to bed.
