    Morning sniffers of the saddle,

    Cake day for me today, mrs 13 has just sorted the animals to leave me having a nice lie in, secretly she wants a bunk up i reckon!

    Dunno what the day will bring but crappy weather could lead to some loafing i fancy.

    Boozes later.

    Morning Gimps, the Sun is back so have been out with the hound and now supping coffee while watching the remembrance service. May go for a run later to see how the ribs hold up and get some form of exercise...

  • Back to Work Monday

    Mehning Losers!

    Far too little sleep to be going into work, I'm knackered.

    A good weekend was had, though Bury lost 1-4, which was feckin' rubbish.

    Today I'm back to the grafting, which should be less as I've finished my soldering. I'm not sure what I have to do, however I'm pretty sure I'll end up doing very little other than try to snooze.

    Laters!

    Way too tired too, mostly my own fault as I stayed up for the gp and then was to wide awake to sleep

    Today is Birmingham and I need to get away sharpish as we are going to a neighbours for dinner as they feel sorry for us with no cooker

    She may have got lucky I'll have to ask her!

    Good day dumplings,

    More animal stuff and more house diy stuff today, having a well deserved beer at the moment before the bottom feeder delivers me food.

    Toodles.

    Evening Knicker Sniffers,

    Bit of a shit day, literally. Too many idiots and too much politics today. Then managed to step in a big fat dog shit on the way home.

    Tomorrow should be better...

  • Terrible Tuesday

    Morning Losers!

    Again, I should have had more sleep, yet I stayed up later for no good reason at all.

    Today I have to read the CV of 9 lesser-spotted minions. I might be employing 2, though I have no budget for it, yet longer opening hours at the weekend are forcing me to overspend. This place is run by feckin idiots.

    After that, I'm going home to make a strange pork fillet with chorizo pasta stew bake thing.

    Laters!

    Evening Poo Flingers,

    Today has been a bit tedious and I'm really going cold Turkey on the lack of bike now. Stropteen is in some concert at the Albert Hall tonight and doesn't het dropped back to our end of the world until 11pm and not at our house. Guess who's got to go and get her :roll:

    Morning Losers!

    Today I'm doing my new minions 4-week review. Joy of joys. That's about the most I have to look forward to really.
    This evening I'm off over to Bury for a meeting. Yay.

    Laters!

    Quiet in here innit.

    I've had my patience tested quite badly today - again. In the absence of any chance of pedalling this week cider will need to be my relaxation tonight! At least we're over the hump...

  • Thursday

    Morning Losers!

    I'm knackered. Less than 6 hours sleep when I'm already tired was not a good idea. However, my dog-walking friend made me spam and cheese on toast, and that's difficult to say no to!

    Today, I am interviewing and testing some potential lesser-spotted minions. That will be interesting!

    Laters!

    still got the beginnings of man flu, but got back from work last night at gone seven and the wife and kids were out - so nipped to the pub for a few pints and felt much better

    Today is working from home, which is great as I've already commuted 500 miles this week. Also means I can meet the builder to discuss a new ceiling in the kitchen after the bathroom flood

    Afternoon all,
    Been working from home today, not very exciting. Went to the beer festival in the local last night but got called away as the Mrs was throwing up rather a lot. The upside of this is that as I only managed 3 pints I don't feel too bad today. I'm out again tonight so hopefully she'll live, I actually quite like her and couldn't be arsed to break in a new one.

  • POETS - It's FRIDAYYYYY!!!

    Morning Losers!

    I'm glad that it's the weekend as of 4pm. Work's been doing my head in, not in a stressful way, but more in a 'I need a new job/career' way.

    Hopefully my weekend-minion can work both Saturday and Sunday, otherwise we're going to be in trouble. I'm not coming in.

    After work, I'm over to Bury where I'm staying with my dog-walking friend.

    Laters!

    Happy Fryday muck spreaders,
    In the office today so I can spend more time slacking. Keep getting rudely interrupted by customers or colleagues though. Being Fryday dead pig will feature at lunchtime. This will be followed by a snoozy afternoon before going to meet the Mrs in the pub if she feels well enough.
    Roll on the weekend.

    'Tis the weekend and cider is featurimg to help wash down a big fish curry. Tomorrow morning could be windy and flammable :) Got through a shed load of work and kept in the CEOs good books luckily. May try so e exercise this weekend and see how the ribs hold up.

    Sounds like fun will be had! How far is the local a&e?

    Morning gusset sniffers,

    Just found out that crocs aren't the greatest footwear for tending to the pigs, just spent half an hour washing my feet and cleaning the floor.
    Restful day today though if rhe rain gives us peace some diy may feature, possibly planting some veg!

    Afternoon Slackers,

    Had a hound invasion this morning after fence panel came loose overnight and next doors mutt decided to pay a visit. Our hound thought it would be a good opportunity for a play scrap so cue Benny Hill style chase round the garden and a bit of fur flying!

    Anyhow, got a few jobs sorted and might go for a run before we stuff our faces with Thai nosh and cider :)
