Sungod is trying to reign in the Pineapple collider after the whole of Surrey petitioned him.
All the MF's have broken down both mentally and physically in a car park somewhere.
Hayden is propping up a tree in deepest, darkest West of the region, Probably in his own back yard in a vain attempt to salvage the rest of his house. God help him when he runs out of energy.
Stevo has made the realisation that the lump of Teutonic metal that he purchased but not received is going to stack up to actually having to work to pay for it (and the resulting cost of blackmail that Mrs S will now use as leverage).
VN is upstairs pretending to work, fighting the thoughts of regular tea and biscuits to the back of his mind, the manifestation of which will be deep depression,
Oxo is on day 3 of 4 and his staying power is being tested to the max.
Hoppy over indulged during the weekend (again) and the cycle in to work just about killed him. He's fast asleep in the corner of the office and is unknowingly suffering from gout.
Flaneur is too busy 'hanging' to post anything. Such is his dedication to Yoga.
BBG is planning the big Calais Mammoet/Carrefour raid prior to Brexit (van/box van/Luton with tail lift/7.5 tonner/7.5 tonner with trailer/7.5 tonner with flat bed/7.5 tonner flat bed with trailer/7.5 tonner with flat bed and double trailer. It's a logistical nightmare).*

I'm not sure it's possible to unknowingly suffer from gout! :shock:
The cycle in to work is always what re-animates me. Roads were packed with cyclists on the commute today, despite the chilly north-easterly. The main train line into Waterloo is gefickt.
A day of busy stuff ahead. I might get an extra-large lunch, seeing as it's cold.0 -
Think you've covered all bases there, 1st webex over watched some rather grim footage from the Macau F3 GP, lots online people have uploaded but its pretty gut wrenching to watch. Speed trap data put her doing just over 170 backwards at the braking point.

Busy, WFH this week. I am therefore far enough away from the Idiots in Business that ignoring them is a little easier. Plus it means I can sneak out occasionally to (figuratively) smell the roses, or in my case, just stare at the view...Pinno wrote:Sungod is trying to reign in the Pineapple collider after the whole of Surrey petitioned him.

Now you mention it I'm due to chase the dealer this week and see if they have an ETA. They need it in their quarterly sales numbers so should be suitably incentivised to make it happen next month and I've told them if I can't have before Xmas then I'll have it registered in January. As far as Mrs. 666 is concerned, I'm just getting the 'sport' version with the optional exhaust which is why it sounds like a an approaching thunderstorm.

I'll have to get a ruler out tonight see how far the pub is from mine, doubt I'll win, house is on a very steep hill so going to the pub is decidedly more easy than the return.0 -
I guess it was a major house purchase consideration.TLW1 wrote:Stevo 666 wrote:

Yep, saw some lovely isolated houses all excluded as you couldn’t walk to the pub. Unless you are in WI, how do you get interpreted into the community?Stevo 666 wrote:

Piña's pretty much hit the nail on the head there.
Just used Google maps to calculate the distance of the nearest pub from mine. Apparently it's 2364" away, I've measured it in inches so it makes it sound further away. Leaving the house by the back door would add about 10% to the distance travelled.0 -

Afternoon all.
My local is less than 100 yards away and yes it was a major purchasing factor. It has since been taken over by an obnoxious twunt so I don’t bother going there now. We all have our crosses to bear.
Monday at work done which was tedious beyond belief. Another day like that tomorrow and I might have get out the office Webley.

about a mile but its awful. even the mfs wouldn't go there and they spent a while when their local was the local petrol station because - as they said - "the beer is cheap, the plastic chairs are comfy and we can get yesterday's sandwiches cheap".Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am
