Mundane News (Part 1)

SWAT team???

No, it's a major works programme on the estate. I wish I'd never let them in to start with - they just do what they want and never finish anything off. Completely and utterly useless, shameless liars too. I'm up to a Stage 3 complaint with them.

And I couldn't post this because they just disconnected my phone and broadband without telling me.

How would that alter the time the bus went past?

It was just that you'd said it was the 6:05 bus but you posted at 4:49. (Insomnia watch)

I have to make a 19 mile journey today to donate a single drop of blood from a fingertip. It will cost me £3.20 in rail fares and involve 4 miles of power-walking, which should take me 50-55 minutes. The total time taken for this generous donation will be about 2 hours 30 minutes! Add 45 minutes if I decide to call in at Sainsburys while I am at it!

Don't you get a cup of tea and a biscuit anymore? (I guess not for such a small amount)

First bus is at 06:05, I just posted that it had just gone past. How thats possible, I'll leave to others to work out.

You're in Greece?

A long outward journey to the start point and 6:05 when it passes on the way back?

Not Greece, Yorkshire(Gods County). First bus past me, during the week is at 06:05.

My flat smells like a curry house

They could at least give me a teaspoon of tea and a crumb from a biscuit!

I'm hoping that this will be my last blood test at the hospital. The Warfarin nurses at the local clinics will soon be using the fingerprick test instead of the "wiggle a needle about in ColinJ's arm until he faints because you can't find a vein" test!

Why not....

Ends in s?

 

[Maverick Goose]

Has it got any tomatoes in...

Hopefully.....as long as there aren't any horses in the mix

You're lancashire bound then?

 

[ColinJ]

Not unless they have moved Halifax! (Round trip distance.)

I just remembered that I was thinking of cycling there, but the roads are a bit busy. I would use the Calder Valley Cycleway but it is getting a bit mucky now with leaf mulch, puddles and mud. I have a while to think about it ...

Just had a cup of tea, now going to take the little'un to a taster session for his pre-school that he starts in January
