Tricky question! Are they milk chocolate suggestives or dark chocolate, and are they McVities? If they are dark chocolate McVities suggestives, you can solve the problem by sending them to me.

Milk, mcvities tasties, just so that you have the full details

I much prefer the dark chocolate ones, so you may keep those. Take them home with you, as they would be stale by Monday.

I mean I am done, had enough of this week. I've driven over 600 miles in the company van in the last 5 days. Weekend now and the car is put away. Is it too early for beer?

Never too early for beer.

I "have" to go to the pub on way home, not sure they would make it home with out being snaffled/left at pub/ left on bus or broken

If you are not driving later today, then it is probably not too early for beer.

Thank you.

I listened to Jeremy Vine's program yesterday. This was the feature. Awful to listen to. Illegal, yet condoned

Jeremy Vine's show is always awful to listen too.... Shouty Daily Wail radio......

I am done.

Did it work?

I'm sure the gallons of Guinness you will consume today will help to relieve the symptoms.

So they will so they will....slainte!

Did it work?

Yep all is fine, just a couple of snag items for them to correct but otherwise a very nice machine. Hopefully it will be installed in my clean room in about 10 days. Oh yes, the company is building me a clean room to set up my vacuum casting processes.

Sounds about the distance I've driven to look after my mother this week. Fancy a swap?

Ermmmm.... perhaps not.

 

[TVC]

Is it pretend you are Irish day today?

Mind you I've come across a couple of people, who bang on about their Irishness all the time without even venturing near the place

I've just been shown this

I see gin has returned to the UK Office of National Statistics' consideration , Apparently it has made a comeback.

@Hill Wimp , @hopless500 ,I think your nations' distillers owe you both a complimentary gift basket for your efforts in this regard.

I'm hoping @User has negotiated a lifetime of free Gin tasting for us all as it's now considered an obvious necessity .

That's is a pathetic excuse for a rug. Poor Archie should have a decent sized one like Henry does.

Do you ever wish that you did not bother to help people?

In a nutshell some years ago, my mother was having a lot of trouble with her emails, so I tried to help her, and every time that she has trouble with emails I have given more help. Now she is convinced that only three people can send her emails. She thinks it is something that I have done that means someone else is seeing her emails, and has complained to my brother. Earlier this week he was very aggressive towards me on the phone and blamed me for my mother being so agitated about her emails. My brother's patience is infinitesimally small/short/non-existent.

She said yesterday that "someone tried to send her an email, but she does not know who it was"?
If someone sent an email, she can read it, and know who sent it. She is convinced that her computer goes "click" if someone sends her an email. She normally gets about three emails a week at most.

At this point I think I need to give up being involved.
