Just shirking whilst eating hot cross buns with real butter and a cup of Rooibos.

Have to go back to work soon and do tedious stuff. As usual, the detail and the inherent devil takes far longer than the main event. The Scots have a good word for it - Footering or plettering.

    busy working, I've been forced to give up my shirking badge. Date has just spent a shit load of money (official term, ask Stevo) in John Lewis to furnish my new flat. Not sure she understands all i wanted was a set of sonos speakers and a poker table

    That's two words, good job you're not an accountant.
    Morning all. Lovely and sunny down here, unfortunately I was stuck in the car due to daughter related faffing that was planned. This meant the traffic was dreadful due to roadworks of course, and to add insult to injury my Dad is now taking the girl so I could have pedalled in after all. Oh well, I'll have to bunk off early to compensate.

    FTFY.

    Busy wrapping a few things up in the office as tomorrow is a day off to check out the new uplift place near Cheltenham. A day trip rather than a stop over means its going to be tiring and Thursday in the office might be tough...

    Been looking at a nice job, now sat eating salad and chicken in a car park, I've upgraded to San Pellegrino though so it's not all bad.

    I have been in charge of a very successful Gulag for 11 years, i'll have you know Mr Stevo. You have no idea how much free (but legal) labour I have used to line my pockets. Of all people, you should give me some credit for that.

    mmm a strange day here at the offices in Shropshire and the day started so well with a pre breakfast ride zone 2 ride in the dry with little wind.

    On the countdown to Easter with the promise of butties for the team tomorrow who have been under immense pressure but have come through sparkling.

    I remember praising tour capitalist credentials in glowing terms when I found out you were an entrepreneur using cheap labour. Even more so when you asked for that tax advice :wink:

    Yeah, someone has been calling me names. Once my bottom lip stops trembling, I will consider my position and decide whether to flounce. I feel I have been savaged by Geoffrey Howe.

    That's a nice little PC s**tstorm over in Cake Stop :) Once we have equality for all in tennis I can enter the 'Crap old player' category and walk off with as much prize money as Novak :lol:

    Long day of meetings and avoiding biscuits was undone by eating my first Easter egg - knew I should have had beer instead of tea

    Personally, I would make the men's tennis game amateur. It's f*cking boring and the women not only have rally's, they're easy on the eye.

    I can only presume that boiling seano in oil is far less significant than grammatical errors. At least we have one thing in common.
