Indeed it is: a can in the shape of a bottle.

So there. Because they can.

Mis-leading/incorrect description and damaged to boot.

Hope everyone who was feeling pawly is feeling a bit more chipper xxx

Left thumb isn't sore.

It didn't really taste of melons either.

I want one: just the text; in German.

Actually, no: in English would be more fun...

Currently trying to write my application letters for a job. This is somewhat difficult because it must be:

1. Reasonably tailored for the specific job or organisation I'm applying for, and also
   
2. Grammatically correct, so I have to get it checked because my German is fluent but I treat German sentences as a sort of downhill MTB route: I aim for the other end and try to get over the obstacles as fast as possible.

This means I'm currently writing paragraphs specific to the three areas I'm aiming for (Addiction/Psychological therapy, Adult retraining and education, and Youthwork) in the hope I can get those checked, and then cut and paste as required.

Mind you, as the one interview I have so far is the result of a hurriedly written and uncorrected email (I had 20 minutes to write and send it) I'm not sure why I'm bothering.

In other news it's pishing it down.

Letter is three pages long with all the variations included. Just realised I've been working on it for over an hour.

Also, it is still pishing it down.

No rain here at the moment but not going to risk putting the washing out.

Loud scream from our living room last night.

A bat had managed to enter and was flying manically all over the place, the dog couldn't care less, he got his ball, thought it was play time.

Being a hero I coaxed it to the kitchen back door to escape. Second time this has happened.

Letters sent for correction, hooray.

Need to go to work in a couple of hours...

You mean it is Monday?

Good night's sleep.

Now having a quiet day during which I will be watching / listening to the BTCC meeting from Donington, the Leicester v Arsenal game, the F1 from Azerbaijan and the snooker from Sheffield.

Am thinking about a bite of lunch before the F1 starts...

You mean it is Monday?

For me, yes.

Also, alas, oils, coil.....

Ails - as in "What ails you?"
