drinking tea, answering emails and listening to the cricket from Jamaica wishing I was there. Or anywhere warm, really...

Listening to Barak Obama talking sense..
Are you listening Gordon Brown.

U.S failed executives will be taken to task more so than lottery winning U.K. failed executives who are still getting massive compensation & allowing bonus payments to the workforce of failed companies all with taxpayers money

Perhaps this should be in Rant.

At work, sitting at my desk and causing IT Guru nightmares- using the PC whilst eating a plate of 'Snack food of the Gods' - Beans on Toast.

Wondering if the Vodka Lounge at Revolution would be a good place to have a party. They want a £200 deposit but refund it if the bar takings are over £1500. It's a dilemma.

I'm contemplating whether or not I'm sufficiently recovered from flu and chronic diarrhoea to have something to eat.

I feel like a right killjoy saying this, but £1500? That seems an awful lot of money to wee up the wall, even collectively

Wondering whether a thread exists in which to describe the following bit of oddballery:

I was examining an Item in Sainsbury's the other day. On the back of said Item was a sticker, which read something along the lines of "This Item has a security tag. Please remove it before putting in the microwave".

Sound advice, perhaps, if the Item is a piece of microwave-friendly cookware, but who would buy 28 Weeks Later on DVD, take it home and think "Noes, I shall not yet place this Item in my DVD player. I need to defrost it first."

Oh, er, um...

That's what I thought too, even allowing for their ridiculous bar prices. I might invite all of you. They'll end up giving me more than my deposit back!

Doesn't sound a lot for a group of weggie hens out on a Friday.

Thawing. Watching the landscape turn white.

Paying a heavy price for failing to check that my DSLR wasn't set to shoot in RAW prior to lending it to snap happy -won't allow- anything to be deleted-SWMBO.

I feel a strange affinity with those unsung heroes of the Horse of the Year Show, the ones with buckets and shovels

Being quite bored in the Emirates lounge in Dubai waiting for my onward flight at 03.45. ::Yawn::

Wowbagger · « **Reply #1643 on:** 06 February, 2009, 10:27:07 pm »

I'm most of the way through a bottle of Pitfield Stock Ale. It's very strong, about 10% I think. I won't have another beer this evening.

I rather envy Andrij and his black sheep. At least you can have the satisfaction of quantity there.

Killing time due to my own stupidity. We are going out with the local club today and they leave at 9.30am from Garstang, some 35 minutes drive from here. For some inexplicable reason I managed to calculate that we would need to leave here at 8.15am. So the alarm was set for 6.45am, and by 8.05am we were just about ready. That is when Mrs. TKP said, "why are we leaving at 8.15 when it takes 35 minutes and we don't need to be there until 9.30?". Good point Mrs. TKP. So now we have half an hour to kill.

I'm getting ready for a Saturday Commute. I'm off to spend an hour with the G & T in Shoebury..

Dawdling. Finished the housework and ironing and eaten my breakfast.

Time to jump in the bath and head off to the hospital to visit a friend.

Poring over a local map to see which route to ride out later.

Scowling at the weather. I was just about to walk into town but it's snowing again.

Waiting for Ibuprofen too take effect on my arm so that I can start my local ride.
Glad I DNS'd the Sunrise Express ride last night.
