    Damn Mondays

    Meh. Morning Losers!

    I feel like if I go back to bed, I'd fall asleep instantly, yet I've been up for 20 minutes!

    I have to put up with retard minion for the week. That basically sums up this week.

    Laters!

    Morning workers,

    Nice frosty morning, had to break the ice off the piggy wigs water buckets, but the sun is breaking through so it'll warm up a bit. Standard building diy type stuff today.

    Toodles.

    My retard minion has no concept of other people. He doesn't recognise sarcasm, talks to you when you have headphones on and not looking or responding to him, and says things really quickly when he wants to be funny. Like, really quickly, so everyone in the office looks at each other and goes "what!?"

    Tuesday

    Morning Losers!

    Today just needs to be over so I can go over to Bury and have pizza with my dog-walking friend.

    Laters!

    Monging tards

    Yesterday i managed to stumble onto the electric fencing around the pigs enclosure, i received four decent belts off it..........which was nice! One way of getting the heart rate up!

    Today is more diy based stupidity.

    I got bitten on the hand once by a pig trying to feed the little git. Never again...

    Still in the office going round on my little corporate hamster wheel. And missing being on the bike as I'm trying to get this busted rib to mend. Ho hum. Cider tonight...

    I bet that's not the only time a pig's bitten Stevo.
    Another day of tedium from home. Office tomorrow which should be chaotic with a meeting at the girl's school mid morning. Deep joy.

    Wednesday

    Morning Losers!

    I got to bed far too late last night, and needless to say, I'm knackered this morning. Looking out the window, there's a small coating of snow everywhere. That'll make the ride on the motorbike a bit hairier :roll:

    Tonight, I need to buy a few things, and then get an early night in.

    Laters!

    Morning bumders

    Breezy and wet here, all animals sorted without electrocuting myself!

    Not sure what the day holds but I'm sure the bottom feeder will let me know.

    I attribute that to cider and very poor disco lighting :)

    Tired again - damn rib keeps waking me up early but at least I'm mostly off the painkillers. Now having to digest what the latest political shizzle means for our business. Anyone for a game of Top Trumps?

    Top Trump Thursday

    Morning Losers!

    Well, the next 4 years will certainly be interesting!

    Turns out whilst I was typing this yesterday, it started snowing even heavier, and I ended up having to drive in. It took me an hour and 40 minutes! Today is looking better, so I should be alright.

    I've finally finished the thing I've been soldering for months! About bloody time. It means that once I've connected it all together and given it a brief test, I can get on with all the other sh1t I have to do!

    Good day trump-ites,

    The world of social media has recoiled and rejoiced at matters over the water, this ere crudder could not give a fark!

    In other news due to shyte local weather a bit of a house tidy is going on which basically means shift the rubbish into the barn with all the other stuff. This will all be 'sorted out later' or even more likely 'forgotten about'

    Long day on the corporate fun bus, bright side whilst we can't use the kitchen or bathroom, the bills for other jobs are landing

    Its beer time - and the new minions are buying the rounds. I don't even need to train them. Tomorrow might be a bit fuzzy around the edges...

    Thank Fark it's Fridayyyyyyy!

    Morning Losers!

    I've finished the soldering I had to do, and installed the devices, then realised I'd put the wrong connectors on the end of some, so did some of the fastest soldering ever. I've impressed myself. It all works except for the Mac won't output to 3 displays. It's pi$$ing me off.

    Today, I'm minion-less for the day. Hopefully it won't be too busy, and it won't be a problem.
    After work, I'm heading over to Bury for the weekend.

    Laters!

    Morning girls,

    Off down the local village for their remembrance ceremony then the village hall for a swift drink. What the rest of the day holds I don't know.

    Monging morns,
    In the office today, even managed to pedal in to try and shake the green lurgy. It didn't work and I wound up having to breathe through my aris. The owners of the company are over from the US at the moment, I told them they couldn't stay here regardless of who won their election and had to go back as we didn't welcome foreigners any more.
    Cafe is calling for consumption of dead pig later, roll on the weekend.

    Evening Trumpsters,

    Good day as I haven't been roasted by the board about the email I sent them this afternoon. The day was then spoiled by some jumped up salesmen demanding we act as their frikkin postal service - twunts. Think I will forget it all by watching Ingerland vs The Sweaties over a cold.glass of cider or two.

    Saturday

    Don't know why but rubbish sleep, think it was work related so done a couple of hrs and whilst tired, at least its done

    Off to Llandegla soon for a couple of loops - my prediction is it will be wet and full of gravel bikes being rode by wets. Later is over to the next village for a few beers & a curry :)

    Mornin' gravel bike saddle sniffers,

    Up for the animals earlier, now back in the sack for a well earned lie in! Did a lot of graft in the garden yesterday afternoon so feeling it a bit.
    Off out later for a beginners astronomy course where learning will take place.

    Didn't think old dogs could learn new tricks bg.
    Slow start has been had, now on full job avoidance. First job to be avoided is furniture assembly followed by avoiding fitting new lights. I will not be avoiding the pub later.

    I'll make all the right noises but won't have a clue! That way of thinking got me through the military safely!

    Managed to get some stuff done and a morning supping coffee and talking bollox, courtesy of Strifey being out all day. She's back now so that's the end of that. I did at least manage to buy 3 litres of cider which could come in handy tonight when the girls start watching 'Strictly' and other rubbish on the box.

    Sunday

    meh, bad sleep again, less hours sleep than Peroni drank :(

    Watching the qualifying from yesterday and enjoying that aching feeling from a couple of laps of Llandegla (2hrs 42 for the geeks)

    Today is a run first thing and then to the village cenotaph and joining in the tradition of straight to the pub afterwards :) Then a bit of bike and car cleaning.

    Later will be the pub
