A few budget words
The budget reminds me a little of a story of an American soldier back in WW2 time. He and his girlfriend turned up at the office of a Justice Of the Peace on a Friday afternoon asking to be married – the man was to be shipped off overseas on Monday morning.
‘Sure thing soldier’ said the Justice. ‘Just let me see your marriage license.’
‘License – we need a license?’ says the young man.
‘Yes and I am sorry. Without the license I just cant marry you’.
‘Well in that case Judge, could you just say a few words to tide us over the weekend?’
And that at the bottom is the budget – a few words to tide us over the next 40 days or so…

Nice work. I came across your blog while “blog surfing” using the Next Blog button on the blue Nav Bar located at the top of my blogger.com site. I frequently just travel around looking for other blogs which exist on the Internet, and the various, creative ways in which people express themselves. Thanks for sharing.
