Paul.
If God had meant us to breathe underwater, he would have given us larger bank balances.
Human beings were invented by water as a means of moving itself from one place to another. -
Are we doing lists? OK, apart from all the obvious stuff like war and famine:
1. Litter
2. People
3. Sand
I may have mentioned all of those things more than once already.
The rest of life I can tolerate.Comment

People who don't have basic manners and don't say please and thankyou, conversation in the cafe this morning:
Rude git - Bacon roll and a black coffee
Me (standing in the queue behind him) - Please!
Girl hands him his order
Me (standing in the queue behind him) - Thankyou!
Rude git to me - mind your own fucking business!
Me - Please!
Rude git stomps off.......I stink, therefore I am.Comment

Staff demanding fan heaters as their part of the open office is cold. Fan heaters issued- no plug attached. Next time demand fan heaters that work (Fan heaters really mess up the thermostats in our office so the MD will not allow their use at the moment
Staff failing to submit their mileage returns. Then discovering that I am applying the HR approved* company policy of deducting £250 for private fuel this month. Yes, the updated policy has been issued to all staff, some time back.
Staff realising that my accounting ledger has recorded the advance I paid to them, just in case they "cough" forgot to repay the money.
Suppliers finally realising that the reason I have asked so many questions about a couple of invoices is because the invoices are actually wrong, even if a manager has authorised the payment.
Happy Wednesday everyone

I felt aggrieved when I had a £100 fine and an offer of 3points or being thrown out of a speed awareness course (I would have been I know). I am currently awaiting my wife catching me up again our points have expired and leapfrogged over the years. I hope definitely her turn next. This is not to defend a certain MPs point swapping with spouse, his mistake was getting divorced.Evolution is great at solving problems. It's the methods that concern me.

Waiting for gas man to come change the meter.
He now says he came at 2.40pm and knocked several times but no answer.
I have been lying on the sofa with the front door in full view since 1pm. No one has knocked.
Sigh.

I arranged for the gas meter to be changed between 6 & 8pm, got home from work to find a card telling me they had called at 4pm.Paul.

We are inching towards a totally internet integrated society. Some couriers can manage to tell you the hour they will arrive and meet their obligation. Others weelll! As for trades persons and more importantly their national companies, internet societal awareness it is about 5 years behind. Yes it may well only be thatmuch.
BUT DO YOU WANT IT? Your every move available on line, well maybe I'm just a Ludite.Evolution is great at solving problems. It's the methods that concern me.

It was raining too.
Oh that was the A3 just south of Aachen.
I promised I wouldn't get another motorbike but they are singing songs to me...Helium, because I'm worth it.
Waterboarding at Guantanamo Bay sounded like a radical holiday opportunity until I looked it up.Comment
