    wednesday

    Another day another shoot sleep :(

    Works Christmas party tonight, so the wife will be pleased that I'm in a hotel and not waking her up
  • Morning Losers!

    Not feeling too smelly at the moment, I'll shower tonight I think. This means my mornings are a little bit more relaxed and slow - I like this.

    The motorbike is sounding a lot nicer now, let's hope it lasts. I need to take it easy for the next 50 miles though whilst the rear tyre wears in, the wet weather hasn't been helping!

    Laters!

    Good day twunts of the crud,

    No showering here but as its France it's optional not mandatory!

    Standard shizzle here but as the barn roof got finished yesterday I'm doing a bit of loafing around, no works xmas party for me this year so I'll just have to get smashed and abuse the bottom feeder.

    Toodles pip.

    I thought showering was banned in soapdodgerland?

    ACOAD today. I even missed out on the works Xmas party and free grog this evening so I'm supping my own booze supply at home to make up for it while finishing off a few emails. Big meeting tomorrow with a crunch of hunts (tax inspectors) so I'd better not get rat arsed.

    Afternoon cheese wands,

    Slept the sleep of the good last night, not surprising after watching the film 'Interstellar'

    Had a demo of the lime/hemp wall covering spray in our barn this morning, reet impressive, more hole digging this afternoon.

    Toodles.

    567 miles to go to reach 31st December target.
    20-40 miles twice a day puts one in contact with a great many more morons that I thought it possible to exist.

    I think I slept last week sometime.

    ACOAD. Some people just need a punch in the mouth, but I resisted the temptation this time. Roll on the weekend...

    The Day of Fri!

    Morning Losers!
    TFI Friday!!!!

    I'm driving in today as I'm stealing a load of equipment from work to do recordings over the Christmas hols. I hate driving in, mainly because driving home is hell.
    Other than that, there isn't much happening at the moment.

    Laters!

    Skipped a load of roots this morning and accompanied the bottom feeder on a food shop........now that's how you have fun. More garden based mincing this afternoon then boozes this evening.

    Quite catchy isn't it :)

    I've now finished an ACOAW. At least the work Secret Santa landed with a half decent bottle of red which I'll make inroads into tonight. So not all bad :)

    Evening Slackers,

    Did a few Christmas related jobs the spruced up the CV to send off to the head Hunter next week. About to start sorting dinner and maybe a bit of grog as well. MOTD later, should be worth a watch.

    Slow start was followed by a chunk of the afternoon and evening in the pub. Tomorrow is cancelled.

    All reyt worms,

    As I'm a responsible grown up I don't have one of those hangovers that 'would kill a civvy!'

    Shoot weather here so internal taskings have been issued! Got some people round tomorrow afternoon for foods and boozes so I'll be a little less responsible then! In the meantime I'm helping the BRavo Foxtrot to sort the scoff out while trying not to eat too much of it!

    Afternoon Gimps,

    Not a lot going here, I have largely been trying to avoid jobs being dished out by the EPO and doing a few bits n pieces of my own. Now listening to the European trophy dodgers footy match and wondering who will drop points :)

    Funny how the mind works. Last week I couldn't think of what it meant, this morning, I didn't even need to click the link before I'd figured it out! Not heard that song in a while!

    Monday

    Morning Losers!

    CBA With going into work today, however needs must, and it should be a lot quieter this week. Retard minion has booked the week off work too, so that's a bonus.

    Tonight, I need to get my shizzle together as I feel quite unorganised!

    Laters!

    Rode to work in the dark to find the computer system was down, so a bit of a slow start. Utter chaos for the rest of the day as it was unseasonably busy. Then rode home in the dark.
    I hate these short days.
  • Tuesday

    Morning Losers!

    It's getting nearer Friday, where I'll be finishing at midday (regardless of what the men upstairs think!). Today is our busiest day with bookings, but hopefully most of them will cancel and I won't have to worry.

    After work, I need to do some chores before heading over to Bury.

    Laters!
