Did Jack the Ripper Come From Ashby?

I suspect the answer is probably no.
The headline caught my eye tonight as I sped through the supermarket. It dominates the front page of...wait for it...The Leicester Chronicle. It must be some kind of supplement because i didn't think it existed anymore.
Even so, that's a headline to pull in the readers and no mistake.

I haven't blogged properly for ages, on account of being on holiday over Easter and then stepping off a plane at Gatwick and more or less walking straight into a two day interview. Didn't get back into the house until Sunday 2-30 am; the only thing that kept me awake was a large cone of coffee and the bickering about personal space on the back seat. If you want to know how tired I was I recommend you take a hyperactive two year old on a 4 1/2 hour plane trip.Enjoy.

How bizarre is this? One of the other interview candidates spent Easter on the same island...AT THE SAME TIME...IN THE SAME RESORT...IN THE SAME COMPLEX. What are the odds of that?
You may be tempted to tell me what the odds are. Please don't!

Haven't found out about the job yet. Spent most of the evening high on adrenaline and pacing the grounds like a caged tiger. I hope that sounded grand - in effect it meant kicking a ball round the close with the nipper. And now I'm just ....
INSERT YOUR FAVOURITE EXPRESSION FOR VERY TIRED HERE. WHAT DO YOU PREFER: TUCKERED OUT? BUSHED? SHAGGED OUT? BOLLOCKSED? ANSWERS IN A COMMENT PLEASE...very tired. So all I'll be able to manage by way of insights into the way the world works is the fact that on Fuerteventura the margarine is made by the same people who make the toilet roll holders. I thought you ought to know. Bye for nowwzzzzzzzzzz.

Stopped in Amsterdam once during a coach journey to Copenhagen and the toilet roll holders in the coach station toilets were made by a firm called "Big Willy".

HONESTLY. I was tired at the time but I'm not making it up. And I found a four leaf clover at the same service station. You make the connection.

Thought I'd nip by for a catch up, looks like you haven't blogged much either. I'd say shattered or exhusted (always was a bit of a drama queen!)
