Cod Widow's Diary Week 9

By: Chez Osborne
Date: 20/11/2000

Long-suffering Chez Osborne, wife of Nick, tells the tale of the week she has had to endure as a Cod Widow. Times can be hard and Nick stretches her patience to the full on occasions as his priorities in life differ widely from her expectations of them!

Diary of a Cod Widow

This week has been very quiet in the sadman household so the diary will be slightly different to normal. Not to worry though, cos sadman is still as sad as ever.

Remember the tooth ache thing the other week? Well he had no choice but to see a dentist, hehehehehe, (he doesnt like going) well she pulled a tooth out. He was like a baby, his eyes filled with water and i swear he pissed himself. He says he spilt the mouth wash, you decide for yourselves.

Thu 16th

Nicko is supposed to be going out tonight and he got stuck on the M6 for hours. Stressed out doesn't begin to describe him. I make matters worse by reminding him he still has to fix the car. I won't print his reply because I didn't know there where so many expletives in one sentence.

Fri 17th

He gets up and does nothing all day, not even the car. Imagine how pleased I was when I realised he had done nothing but go on the PC while I was at work. He got the wrong end of a good earbashing, but he soon knuckled down when I told him the trip to Sheffield might be in doubt. Amazing what happens when you mention footie isnt it.

Sat 18th

Matchday. He is doing the car and getting well stressed. He's running out of time and if the car don't work then he isn't going. It's 11-30 and he's nearly crying, supposed to be going in 15 minutes. The car still doesn't work.

What he doesn't know is I will be glad to see the back of him today,so he can take the Rover, but the stress in his face is ace to watch.

11-45 and I let him go (in the Rover). Did I forget the fanzines? Well let me tell you, he has 500 rivals fanzines to give away, and it's just him and The Pirate to do it. The Pirate refuses to help because he only works for the official site. Nicko says he is a despicable traitor. (Hope he reads this and smacks him one)

Anyway, they get to Sheffield and start giving out the zines. I can imagine the pair of em looking like some sort of sad twats, et al. Postman Pat. Not that I care, but he comes home full of it. Apparently Town lost and everyone got booked or sent off (is this supposed to mean something to me?)He mumbles on about how shite the ref was. Too late now I told him. Not too happy he wasn't.

Off out for an Indian now, cya next week.
