    Afternoon beeatches,

    Pruned some trees, cleaned out the Gite post visitors, think they liked booze as i removed 20 empty prosecco bottles but who is counting.

    Onwards to bed as i feel tired.

    Evening all,
    Fairly uneventful day of work which is good. Bunked off early to take the child of female persuasion to another appointment, now lazing before scoff. Might have to have a couple of beers tonight.
  • Finally Friday!

    Morning Losers!

    Today should be a good day as retard minion has booked it off as holiday! Awesome! It means I'm by myself this morning, so could be quite busy, however I have a lesser-spotted minion in for the afternoon, so that will help.

    After that, I'm driving over to Bury for a little while but not staying.

    Laters!

    Morning germs,

    Orrible weather here so house based loafing today.

    Possible pub for foods and boozes later but it's doubtful.

    Blimey, it's the afternoon already. Shortly heading up to the cafe to consume my body weight in dead pig based products. Can't figure out why I'm not losing any weight. Moderately busy in the office today, a fair amount of cba in the air around my desk though. Pub with the Mrs on the way home, assuming I don't get blown off first.

    Afternoon,
    Must've worked too hard for the last month, bit of a shock to the old system. Got a month off to recover.

    My head is starting to ache on account of some stupidly complex tax matters and a massive financial reorg. I may need cider later to alleviate the aching feeling.

    On the plus side its nearly the weekend and only a week to go till Rome :)

    Morning chokers of the chicken,

    Reyt windy here at the moment, as it's getting light i need a wander around my grounds to see what damage has occurred. Mrs13 has been up for hours worrying if anything has been blown off, had to assure her I hadn't.

    Off out later, weather permitting to collect some more horse muck for the garden then it's foods and boozes.

  • Morning Losers!

    It's a beautiful day here in da Hudd, so I'm going to dust the bike down and get out for a little bit. Then I'm over to Bury this afternoon to sort some stuff out and pick up my new glasses! Then I'm staying over at my dog-walking friends house.

    Morning,

    It's the weekend and it's a nice but damp day up here in the northern wastelands. I'll be dog walking later, finally the pup is ready to leave the house. Only for about 15-20 minutes though as he's still so young but it'll be his first time out with the kids so should be good.

    Morning polishers of the dolphin,

    Looks wet here today so indoors based loafing is the order of the day, with some rugby thrown in to the mix to ensure the mrs has something to moan about.

    Afternoon rug munchers and garlic chompers,

    I'm sitting listening to rugby and football on and off. Got some holiday prep done for next weekend as were headed off to eat lots of pasta etc next Saturday. It'll be a bit of a birthday treat :)

    Morning Losers!

    I've got the day off today, as I have quite a bit of stuff to do that isn't work related, and I have a couple of random days to take off. So even though I'm off work, I'm not lazing about, though the lie in was great!

    So a lot of typing this morning, then I'm collecting some items I bought at auction this afternoon, then going to Specsavers to get my new glasses adjusted, then shopping, then over to Manchester tonight to watch Greenday at the MEN.

    Laters!

    Afternoon all,
    Been knackered all day after a poor night's kip, reasonably busy in the office today as well so I've been keeping my head down. Chilly ride in this morning, should be a bit warmer for the ride home at least. Nice that I can get back before dark now, should get back before the rain starts as well. Must try to get an early night tonight as I'm out tomorrow.

    It was freakin' awesome! My ears are still ringing though, I forgot to take my earplugs!

    Tuesday
    Morning Losers!

    Today is the morning after the night before, and as the night before consisted of a Greenday concert, today will be pretty boring.

    Morning Losers!

    I could have done with an extra hour or so sleep today. I'm exhausted.

    Today, I really need to get a grip and do my 'To Do' list at work, as I look at it then ignore it. I really cba though.

    This evening I've got another meeting in Bury, so that's going to be a nice round trip too...

    Afternoon ladies,

    Another lazy day in store for me. I was up early to visit the doc about my knee and have done very little since then. I should be out riding my bike, training for the c2c2c but poorly kid at home means I have to stay at home as well. So I'll carry on eating my way through the contents of the kitchen and get fatter.
