    Evening Starfish pokers,

    Another busy day on the corporate hamster wheel. With lots of tax in far away places and some pedalling chucked in at either end. Now chilling in front of the telly with some cold cider watching Chelsea play some cheating Manc tw@t's.

    Is the safe correct form tw@s or tw@t's

    Good luck with the interview Tkm, what position is it for? Beer taster?
    That would be good! Though you've just given me the idea that when I can retire to a farm, like yourself, maybe I could look at making my own whisky!

    Tuesday
    Morning Losers!

    Got off work early yesterday, which was needed really. I then had loads of work to do for nothing to do with work, and had the telephone interview. I've no idea how well it went. They gave no clue at all.

    Today, I have to get through the day with retard minion. Then in the evening, I'm meeting my dog-walking friend and going to watch Bury try and play football.

    Laters!

    Evening twunty tw@s,

    Last nights "couple of drinks and nibbles" with chums turned into a drinks cabinet emptying exercise, to that end I haven't felt on top form today! Though I've been outside all day as the weather has been great. Sorting out water butts and mulching the bases of all the trees. Also got the trailer out to start some trailer training for the pigs who are off 'on holiday' on monday!

    Only Wednesday

    Morning Losers!

    Great match at Gigg Lane yesterday, seeing us win 3-0! It was nice to see the ref being on our side for a change! Makes a huge difference to how you feel.

    Today, I have to finish an important document after a late night email last night telling me it isn't good enough :roll: The deadline is 3pm as it needs to be put out to print then. I'm not enthralled by this at all and could do without it, especially as it's nothing to do with my work, yet it's interrupting it! Ah well, roll on 3pm!

    Laters!

    Evening Mongs,

    Busy day dealing with the Kingdom of Far Far Away. Luckily someone deposited a load of cake for the office to scoff this morning so that kept me going.

    Now tired and on the train home for a good doss. And maybe see what's happening on the footy front.

    Evening Gits,

    Just did my last day in the office until Tuesday. Working at home tomorrow and got a day of downhilling in Wales on Monday :) And I pedalled in and out so have treated myself to a bit of cider.

    FRIDAYYYYYYY

    Morning Losers!

    Where the fark is everyone!? Are we the last 3 standing? That's a sad turn of events, and a quicker demise than I ever imagined!

    Today, I go to work, I come home from work, and then I relax until Sunday at 11pm when I go to bed.

    Laters!

    I'm still here,
    had a really busy and rather boring week so haven't bothered sharing with you. Very glad it's Friday as that means going to the cafe, it should also be cake Friday as we didn't get any last week. Boss has just checked the cake buying rota and it turns out the purchasing department should have bought them last week. :roll: Considering they seem incapable of buying enough stock and getting it here on time the fact that cakes are late is hardly surprising. They'll probably buy f@cking sushi or some other sh!t as well. Some people seem to struggle with the definition of the word CAKE. It's really not that complicated.
    Hectic weekend coming up, need to take the boy to Southampton Uni again tomorrow for a more detailed look as that's looking like one of the favourites. That means all of the jobs and running around will have to be done on Sunday.

    We'll be back up to 5 when TLW comes back from holiday...

    Working from home and onto coffee and sandwich break currently before the next round of fun starts this afternoon. I'll also have to get my car back from the garage later, hopefully fixed as I've got over 800 miles of driving to do in the next few days - up North tomorrow then over to Wales for a spot of uplift if rain doesn't stop play.

    Saturday

    Morning Losers!

    A rather windy and wet night means the paths are going to be soaking today, so I'm going to take the bike out for a ride. I don't know how far I'll go, but I need to get back into training hard ready for the summer!

    This afternoon, my dog-walking friend is staying over. We're going to have a steak night and the a movie with some White Russians. It's going to be good!

    Laters!

    I'm up North visiting the parentals after a record breaking run up the A1. Just watching the end of the footy. Later may involve a trip to the chippy and some cold cider :)

    The only problem is the forecast for Wales is now looking total pants.

    Avoided Southampton trip and did a few bits and bobs round the house with a healthy amount of dossing between jobs, more of the same tomorrow.

    Sunday

    Wow, it is getting busy here

    Had a great holiday followed by a decent night out in the local international arena/village hall

    Today is a few jobs (probably involving the chainsaw) and a decent run

    Without doubt the pub will be involved later

    Wondered where you'd got to.

    Just about to make a last minute decision on our Welsh trip as the forecast tomorrow is set to 'power shower' all day :evil:

    Good day girls,

    The gods of the web have kept me from passing the time with you, forgetting passwords and email addresses, you know the sort of 'senior moments' that old people like v68 and Stevo have!

    Anyhoo, been busy here as usual and have three pigs that are going for a short holiday to the local abattoir, how I'm going to consume that much bacons is an amazing problem to have.

    Monday - Meh

    Morning Losers!

    CBA With work today. My chest is bothering me again, so I'm going to have to find out a better sitting position here as I'm convinced it's this sofa.

    My damn alarm on my iPhone doesn't always sound. It goes off, but just flashes! Useless piece of sh1t.

    Laters!

    Morning gussets,

    Pigs safely delivered to the abattoir, they did put up some resistance when invited to leave the trailer but eventually they went. Really sad to see them go but so looking forward to eating them!
    Ideally i need sleep as was up at 4 but the bottom feeder needs me to make a step ladder for the chickens!!!!

    Onwards to a meltdown

    Tried it before in proper heavy rain and it's closer than you think...will save it for a better day.

    Actually I have no meetings today as everyone was expecting me to be out :) So had a good pedal in and am catching up with some stuff before tomorrow which will be busy.

    Manic day in the office, tired now. Trip to Denmark this weekend looks like it's off, but not sure yet. This is a major pain in the aris as I'm off tomorrow taking the lad to Birmingham Uni and could do with knowing so I can get stuff sorted. I'd rather not go as I suspect it will be boring as fark, flogging oil at a classic car show is not my idea of fun. Add a day of traveling and waiting around at either end and it's definitely best avoided. Danish girl's are cute though so might not be all bad.

    Apparently they get cuter as you get older :)
