So how are we all on this fine sunny morning?

Anyone got any plans for drinking today to celebrate St Patricks day?

I'm personally off to the pub after work but I'll be driving so no drinking for me.

Work time now so I'll catch you all later. Don't miss me too much xxx

    Whoah it's St. Patricks day? Well happy day then!

    Looks like a few drinks are in order for me today then.

    Anyways, waiting for shops to open up, then i'm going to raise hell in my phone shop. For the 3rd time this month they have seriously messed up with billing me for things, when they are supposed to wait until the end of the month for it. This has left me with -87 in my account and no money to live on except the cash I have in my pocket. I will be leaving that shop with either my contract cancelled with them, or a brand new blackberry Torch. That is the only option for me.

    Morning all!

    Morning, I'm not irish, so for this reason i'm out.

    Went to bed at 21.00 last night and slept all the way to my alarm at 5.30 which was the first time in god knows how long? still feel tired but not delirious like yesterday, which almost saw me wasting a hell load of money, good job i had the sense to talk to someone else before buying a potential shitter.

    Today i will mainly be going to site to site with engineers, where i will be mainly watching films on my phone while they do not much and charge lots of money :roll:

    i think a change of tatic on the bike front may be in order? maybe a frameset and swap my stuff over??? oh god i'm never gonna get a new bike at this rate.

    It's a set amount of 3, 4, and 5 hundred. Think I'm getting 4 this year, 5 would be nice though.

    Morning, now gone 1/5th of the way through lent successfully, really considering giving up, can't be doing with this no drinking lark.

    Lectures today, lots of them, 4 to be precise. Then home at 2, bit of fifa and then probably go out somewhere to celebrate St Paddy's day, in which case it would just be rude not to have a drink.

    Anyway I'm off to do some learning...

    Good Morning Freaks!

    And, Happy St Patrick's Day!

    Feeling very tired this morning. Very heavy legs on the commute in, but at least there weren't any ghosts today...

    Busy writing up stuffs today, so I'll check in at lunchtime for a few mins, then back on again this evening. You all behave whilst I'm not here.

    Morning, whats the hype with St Patrics day? If you're not Irish and lets be honest, very few of us are why celebrate it?

    I think its the most overhyped bandwagon in existance.

    Anyway I've brought the bike to work today to fit a new bar-stem-grip combo and a set of XTR discs.

    it may be an overhyped bandwagon, but let's face it. Any reason to get drunk is useful.

    Well this time last year I was working a shift on A&E with all the drunks, so today is much of an improvement.

    However, I still have a bad cold, must be lady flu, ten times worse than man flu. But hey ho, life goes on and I'm on a late shift tonight.

    Have a good day everyone!
