Morning all,
How are we doing today? I'm mildly hungover, but otherwise all is well with the world.

I'm very well Mr Veronese68, thanks for asking Glad all is well in your world too

Had a pleasant run last night, need to increase the number of runs I do a week now I think and I'll soon be back to my slim old self 8)

Not much else to report here really.

Bonjour!!

Cleaned another bike today, three to go

Start of the mad portuguese holiday season here, everyone from the north comes here, they like to sit in their traffic jams and form queues outside the bread shop and all go to a restaurant for lunch at 1 PM sharp, thinking of going north for a month it's probably empty

You mean you're fat the moment? My efforts to shed a pound or two before I head for the beach are not going that well but TBH I don't care

Will head down to Oxford St/Regent St this evening to try and buy get some posh shoes (and annoy the 'car part peasants') then off for free beers with an 'advisor' - one benefit of having a budget and people wanting a slice. Time for more coffee...

'Fatter' than I want to be, yes, I got to that point in life where I realise I can't eat whatever I like anymore :roll:

You can still eat what you like...you just have to change your list of things you like!

You can, the doctor and the wife will just bitch at you.

Long breakfast for me, (french toast with bacon and maple syrup) though my new job did call to inform me they can't pay me until the 24th of October due to payroll 'problems' was debating how to handle it.

Spin on the bike later me thinks

You're new job's going from bad to worse, yesterday they couldn't pay you until September and now it's the end of October, sounds iffy to me :P

Flâneur

Told them that I could accept September however they will have to find a work around for any later and Oh, I'd like another ladder scale increase for the inconvenience. Knowing full they want me in on Monday and the effort required to find someone else probably outweighs the cost. Failing that be looking for more consultancy work again haha

Did I mention that I had a fry up yesterday, a skinful of beer in the evening and I've just been out for lunch with the Mrs? I pretty much eat what I like, even though I'm older than Arran. But I'm 6'2" with a 32" waist, ya fat bastards. :P

Oi watch it bean pole, less of the fat bastard, I've got a 32" waste as well, I've just lost the Adonis like six pack I used to have

veronese68

I have a party 7 rather than a 6 pack.

GiantMike

Chicken sandwiches, dental check, returned a tent, did some stapling. Had about 4 cups of tea and 2 cans of diet coke.

Inspired by your motivational words of sarcasm, I cleaned two more this afternoon, one to go

simonhead

Any solid Subsea IMR PM's on here wanting a perm role in Bergen?

Other than that my brain is rotted from 2 days software training.

And what's your waist measurement when you've taken your corset off?

I've got to that point in life where I realise I'm not allowed to dine there very often either :roll:

Shattered. Not really too sure what day it is but have just flopped on the couch, gin in hand. Back to work on Sunday, two days off then being sent away for a few weeks. Should be excellent but tiring.

I'm not as daft as you think I am, never measure without the corset.

No point going out for a Maccy D's when you have steak at home even if you can just look at it

Stevo_666

If you're eating out you need to make it worthwhile. I prefer classy and exotic

Kebab meat then :P

Stevo_666

Each to his own

Reminds me of that old joke about what Lobster Thermidor has in common with BJs...
































....You don't get either at home.

I'll get me coat.
