Noticing allot of 'passion' on the forum at the moment, is it time of year? Time of day? Something in the air?

Or lack of sleep.....

    I think I still am. At least I try to be.
    just had a good rant at my boss, but that's not on here of course.

    9 months from now is start of spring, lambing and calfing season, the passion comes from an inbuilt desire to 'spread our genes' at the time when the offsprings survival chances are greatest.

    There was an article about procrastination on the BBC news website recently. I thought I'd look at it later, it's gone now. :?

    Hmmmm your avatar whatever says Lemington spa. Interferin with Sheep is normally the preserve of the Welsh and Kiwis.

    I'm very calm at the moment. I even had to calm down a moped rider this morning who was having a screaming fit with a pregnanat lady who had stepped out from behind a van to try to sprint across the road just after the lights had changed (to green for him, and green man for her had long since gone). Fortunanely he managed to stop before hitting her.

    He was still all worked up when he stopped for next set of light. I told him she was indeed a lemming, but then we have to expect lemming behaviour from peds. His best thing now was to take two deep breaths and calm down as being pumped full of adeneline on the rest of journey wasn't ideal.

    He saw my point and thanked me.

    A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game
