Give me some dialogue from your day

[gbb]

At work there is a football sweepstake

Colleague approached me: would you like to...
Me: no thank you

Colleague...
'You want a go in the sweepstake ?'
Me..
'Nah, thanks, I'll give it a miss'
''You sure, Brazil is still available ?'
'Nah...thanks anyway'

5 minutes later, some discussion was had between 3 girls and 3 fellas in the office...
'You sure you dont want one ?'
'Go on then'

I pick a piece of folded paper, slowly unwrap it...as 3 others carefully eye what my piece of paper says....it unwraps at one end...I can see ZIL'
'Jammy sod, he's got Brazil '
Me....Hahaha
Colleague...'3 times I asked, , you'll thank me if you win '

'Is your passport up to date ?'
'Errr, yes'
'Good, how do you fancy a trip to Spain, look at this new machinery'

I tried to appear enthusiastic....but ive been there, done that many times over and thought those days were over. Ah well...I seem to be becoming the senior member of the engineering departmemt as we imminently face being taken over. Hopefully its just a one off.

a passer by to me as i stood down a side road in Hammersmith with my camera...

"that's gonna be the most boring photo ever"

the lens was trained on a juvenile Peregrine Falcon on a low roof, approx 30ft away... it was being harassed by two magpies.

yeah, pretty dull, i suppose!

*Lilo, our 7 year old goldfish is in a hospital tank getting treatment for a nasty eye condition*

Come on Lilo, eat.... Come on Boy (he has a girl's name due to his previous owner).... Really, now I have left food in your tank, but if you wont eat then what can I do??

He's on special fish antibiotics, proper vetinary stuff, so I'll wait and see what happens, but there is only so much I can do. He hasn't really eaten anything in the last few days now.

Villager arriving in shop: *appalled expression*

Me: leaves it to Colin to explain that he's part of the village Marquee erection team who have a job on that day....

At the railway station;

Girl 1: I'm going to get my eyebrows tattooed on.
Girl 2: Oh, cool!
Girl 3: Nice! What made you decide on that then?
Girl 1: Well, when I draw them on, they look fake.

My colleagues partner has cleaned out their shed and turned it into a 'lounge', carpet, sofa, tv etc.. to watch the football, so last night her 2 kids slept in there, she said that this morning when she opened the door to get them up for school it was boiling inside, I pointed out that if there is no ventilation then they could suffocate, her reply 'they'll be fine' personally I wouldn't risk it

 

[laurence]

this is one of the boring photos from the earlier message...



ok, it is dark, but it was getting late and i didn't have time to change any settings.

It will probably save her money in the long run though....

Ganged up on by the wife and daughter who's just dropped in...sometimes I don't know why I bother
Wife has just got up at 9.45. We both work full time and TBH,by the time we get in, we just flop down and relax. Shes been complaining the house need a bit more cleaning...nothing too bad but its not as good lately as we'd like.
I got up early and set to...
Me to wife...(Bear in mind we have a humorous gladitorial way of talking to each other sometimes)
'Cleaned up, dishwashers nearly done, floors mopped, furnitures polished and stairs swept, walls in the loo wiped.just upstairs to do'
Wife...
...shes not long got up and is 'disinterested'
Me...
'Bloody hell, is that all the thanks i get ?'
Wife...
'I do it every day...what makes your effort so special ?

10 minutes later, wife and daughter are in the garden, i walk in the kitchen and start clearing up after them..
In mock disappointment, i say..
'No no, its ok, I'll tidy up your cups, put the chair back, tidy up after you all '
Daughter..
'Youre talking rubbish, the cups are out here ya moron'
Me, indignantly..
'Where's the respect ?..talking to your dad like that , outrageous'
Daughter ...
'Phhhht '
