That time of the week where I try and remember who I made plans with and if I double booked myself.

Happy damned Fryday everybody, finally.
Should be a fairly normal Fryday at the fun factory, hopefully there won't be any excitement. Taking the long way home as I have to drop something off in Richmond on the way. Could do a lap of the park as well, or more likely straight through as pizza will be calling me by then. Still debating what to have for my fry up at lunchtime. Currently it's looking like Sausage, bacon, egg, fried slice, black pud, 'shrooms and beans with a couple of rounds of toast and a mug of tea to wash it down. Could add bubble to the list but it can get a bit heavy. Until then I will have to survive on tea and biscuits, just run out of ginger nuts though.0 -

Trying to tie up all the loose ends today.
If you do 10 jobs and only 9/10ths of each job, you'll have one whole job left over that you will only do 9/10ths of...?
I think, by accident I have now summed up the British muddling through way of doing things in one sentence. Fixing it is an altogether different (impossible) thing.
Why is it that the bigger the organisation, the longer it takes them to cough up? Worst of all, they are based in Manchester. Has that got anything to do with it?
It has stopped raining !

Good quote.
Here's one on the same vein:

We supply a small British car manufacturer with a few parts. They got taken over by one of the biggest car manufacturers in the world, it would take months to get the money. So we shut their account and told them to pay up front. They were aghast and told us we couldn't so that. We told them we had and if they wanted anything they would have to pay up front. I must confess I enjoyed that.pinarello001 wrote:Why is it that the bigger the organisation, the longer it takes them to cough up? Worst of all, they are based in Manchester.

Nice but I don't think we are in a position to do that.
Maybe I should send Manc33 on a little errand. He would do their nuts in and they would pay up pronto. Probably never hear or see them again.

There's no one here matth. All the squares have all had their Ovaltine and are tucked up in bed in their pyjamas, so you're talking to yourself. This is just a pre-recorded message.
