    WFH.

    Won £3.50 on last nights EuroMillions!

    Got an email from a recruiter asking if i'm interested in a new role in the rail industry in the middle east working for a "highly reputable company". Maybe? Not great timing though with baby on the way.

    Morning, freezing temperatures here , Tigger walked , porridge for breakfast , covid jab @ 9 o’clock
    Have a good day

    Good news LD. No known side effects part from growing a pair of norks apparently.

    Quiet morning as have avoided having meetings and Strifey has taken the dogs out. Treated myself to a pot noodle to go with my big mug of tea - you only live once, right?

    Good point

    🤔 What kind of stupid name is Ben anyway, sounds like a clock.

    Yes I know it’s actually a bell.

    Guess it depends how big he is...

    WS is a proper wind up merchant. Slippery as xxxx on way to station this morning, had to resort to the old codger style shuffle several times. Supposed to start de-icing on Sunday.

    What's the long term prognosis with the eye 'Loon?

    Meh. Naughty eye still being naughty. And the body still tries its best to form new blood vessels to bypass the damaged one, hence all the anti-VEGF injections to clamp down on the consequent increased scarring of the retina. This is all microns type activity but given where it is... Been mutterings of poss laser zap. Meanwhile good eye, bottom line on test perfect, top of the class better not fall back into the bad ways of its sibling. Then I'd be proper xxxxed. Hence the wearing of safety glasses rather than poseurs' Oakleys and the like.

    Fast pass through at my favourite clinic today: checked in, sight tested, injected and out in 15 minutes, Now I have my 48h do nothing embargo phase. Drinks still allowed though.

    And here endeth today's lesson.

    Mushrooms are the root of all evil.

    Vile, horrible things. Neither plant nor animal. Weird little f@ckers.

    As an aside, there's a village down the road from me called Nork. Just one though.

    Well at least they will give him something else to play with.

    Wife's 20 year old nephew is being jabbed today.
    He has ADHD but I can't think that makes him more susceptible to covid though.

    John the question is which GTi? Proton Satria GTi?

    Neither! Absolutely nothing to do with cars. Middle name is Gwyn. First email address I tried to register was johngt but someone else had already taken it so gti it was.

    Even more boring than a proton satria gti
    Gwyn?

    Now thats a solid, strong name.

    the name of warrior, see.
    .
    The camera down the willy isn't anything like as bad as it sounds.

    Named after my Taid who died 2 months before I was born. John Gwyn isn't it. Dad's a Gwyn too. My eldest son has inherited the middle name now.

    I was rough as ar$eholes, the evening after mine. Be ready! :smiley:

    How long was you feeling rough for Ben?, I am sat shivering at the minute, been like it for the last hour, normal resting heart rate is mid 40s, it’s now 96, feeling knackered
    The doctor said I might be bad due to the tablets I’m taking, just had a couple of paracetamols hope they work , but I doubt it
