Morning swim, check. Protein shake, check. Go to work, not yet

Finished designing the kit for the club last night, after adding a little more to keep those who were moaning about the black being too dominant (it is the main colour mind) to then start a 'discussion' with the committee over it. Feel like saying how about you go and design logo's and scripts in photoshop etc.

Better be a better day than morning.

Morning all,
For some reason I have a slight hangover this morning, can't imagine why that is. Lovely wobble in to work this morning helped blow the cobwebs away. I've got to go and have some training for a new oil supplier we have soon. I really don't want to go, I already know far more than is necessary about oil as I worked for a specialist oil company for a while. I could sit there and say nothing, or ask lots of overly technical questions if I get bored. That might irritate everyone else though. Hopefully not too much else going on today, got to go and see my mother this evening as it's her birthday.

I gave up drinking last Christmas and only drink on birthdays... Happy birthday V's mum, cheers!

Crappy night last night meant I didn't make the 6am wake up ride.

To add insult to injury I was half way through making my porridge at work at the bloody milk is off so I can't have a cup of tea yet and I'm hungry.

Well today just got a whole lot better.

Mrs HD phoned to say she'd finished a client meeting early and did I want lunch at the pub? Hell yes, one chicken filler burger and two pints of Peroni later and today's mood can now only be described as "chipper"!

It is ok for some ain't it!


Mine is just going downhill. Thought I'd sorted the kit thing and someone is being a PITA about it. Not sure they get how much time each redesign takes

A Horse designed by committee is always gonna be a camel.

And then you have to post the final design on here for approval/pith takin'

Exactly.

Idea was to always keep it simple, so should you leave the club you just have a simple jersey you can always wear. then again the club was supposed to be for about 12 of us as mates and is now 54 people, majority I can't say I care for.

I still hate all the fonts. I'm a hater

Where'd the images go? I saw them a little while ago...

I quite like it. Is the logo meant for Mercedes drivers to use as a target lock for the bonnet emblem?

Flâneur

Edited it, I told the fuckers they can have this or find someone else. the are still on the flickr acc.

Logo is a compass (a tat I want/may get) but yes or for jags to line up and pounce!

Got to agree with Stevo, why do the numbers when you can get a minion to do it, leave more time for meetings

Flâneur

Why do meetings when someone else can do them for you too?

You guys need to up your game

You do the meeting and swerve/delegate the actions - that way, like today, you get a nice free lunch

Teflon desking is good fun when the minions can't say no :twisted:

And scrounging freebies off advisors who want a slice of your budget is good sport. Had to turn down a day at the gee gees this week unfortunately, would have been a laugh.

delegate the meetings they can delegate the work you can go the gold cup

Anyone here doing rapha hell of the north?

Will one of you accuntants lend me a minion (with fine norks) to do the year end figures for the scout group? It's a charity and I'm sure you could write the costs off against tax or whatever the hell it is you do.

You need a CX bike for that. Will it still have the short cut lane that you have to drink a shot if you take it?
Edit: Having a CX bike is not enough, have to do Twatter.

Pinno does his own books apparently. He'd be perfect for the job as long as you can trust him not to play with anyone's woggle.

I think (hope) he fails on the norks front though.

I fail miserably on the noork front.

The books are externally audited so no room for errors. However, the old man of Crawford is a jolly decent chap who gives up his time free to do it and I can always call him up.
The real b'stards are previous funders who want detailed reports with questions like 'How the money assisted the local community?' (National Lottery) When the funding was for a generator to power the baler. The other 9k we didn't get, the baler genny £1400 !!
It's either a short one sentence response or a 2000 word essay. The former never seems to be sufficient.
