Morning Numbnuts!

Work meh today. I got given a deadline for the end of the week yesterday, which is a stupid deadline as I can't meet it for various reasons :roll: Needless to say, it revolves around, Apple, Safari and a completely seperate company. Oh, and my work's network :roll:

Anywho, hopefully I'll have explained to people by the end of play today that I can't meet their stupid deadline and never could, then come home with a bigger hammer and screwdriver and get this damn headset out!

Laters!

    Mornin' fleshbags

    It's the last working day of the week for my colleague, consequnetly today will feature the traditional Friday headline act of Bacons. It'll be a good gig as Bacons has beans, eggs, sausage, hash browns and coffee as support acts.

    Tehn it's onto work, which today will be largely composite based. Making stuff go snap, crackle and pop is great fun, especially when it's not a breakfast cereal.

    I seem to be very breakfast-centric today. Guess there's no alpen some people.

    Onwards! To coffee! And Bacons......truly the king of processed meats!

    Uni meh today. Should be slightly more interesting than normal, they've got a load of actor people coming in to run through some consulation scenarios with us... as it's not assessed I think I can have a laugh with it and mess about a bit.

    After this I'm going to head into town to the cheese shop to buy some cheese.

    Morning

    No meh today as somehow after getting home late (running with a mate) I managed to convince the wife to allow cycling to work (stopped after recent decent crash), the building of a singlespeed road bike and a Tag monaco for my birthday in November.

    Superknarlystoked tired today. need rest. need to stop my brain working while sleeping.
    Yesterday was running around like a headless chicken for both work and personal, but i did start the intergration of my new staff and they are now working from my office.
    trouble with this is they work completely different hours and shifts to my current staff and i cant work out in my little brain how i'm going to intergrate them?

    Today will be spent shouting at subcontactors and writing ideas down on bits of paper

    Woke up this morning to a pair of grade A c*nts talking on the TV about how they want their daughter back from Gaz. If not they'll subject us to another book deal and several weeks of tabloid hell.

    she’s dead ffs! :roll:

    Aside from that work again today and hoping that my CRC order is delivered before the weekend.

    Legs are seriously tired after riding lesson last night, Trevor was being very lazy so I had to do all the work.
    Also accidentally got a late night so feel like shoot today. Got lots to do as well, so caffeine might be required.
    Riding again tonight, jumping this time though. Scary.

    Also have been told I need my full face helmet for Saturday again. Lets hope I don't fail as badly as last time.

    Short job made easier by a trainee doing a trip to Barry for me, which gave me opportunity to have the poo I've been thumbing back in for the last 2 hours.

    Just a Bargoed, then gym and a trip to lbs for a new chain ready for Sundays ride... Anyone coming to Afan or is it just me and Bails?

    The commuting forum is for that sort of obscenity, not here please.

    Morning Fudgepackers,

    Busy morning had already sorting out junior then a bit of swimming. Now tucking into marmite on toast washed down with a mahoosive mug of coffee and working out what to pack for tomorrow's trek up North to see the parents. Will be stopping off at Cadwell Park on the way tomorrow to blag a few passenger rides at a trackday, so full face helmet is already in the car :)
