I know you know this but there is not a high volume of calls

There is a low volume of manglement willing to pay for staff to man the phones

I used to work on the computer systems of a call centre - I know how they work and a guaranteed answer in 10 seconds is perfectly achievable

Just saying - I'll get off my hobby horse now!!

Worked in a call centre where the rule was incoming calls had to be answered on the third ring.

Good morning from a soon to be sunny Dorset. Ernie has awarded me £325 this month 👍. Not sure what the day holds but we're going for nibbles and wine at a friends house this evening, be good to have a natter and catch up. One of our running friends has taken another tumble, just cuts and grazes fortunately. He's 78 and still doing parkrun 5k in 21 minutes 😮, he tripped after he'd finished his run, tired legs I expect.
Have a peaceful day folks ☕️☀️🦔

Wow. That’s mighty impressive at 78.

You must have got my share from Ernie. Nothing for me this month.

A chilly start here. It’s not much above freezing just now but another great day to come

The " Big One " for you next month then Mo 🤞😁
Ian, the lad who took a tumble, is about 5'4" and you'd find more fat on a butcher's pencil. He also has / had an England Athletics Vest 😎

I have an appointment in a few weeks

main problem I seem to have is that my glasses are covered in scratches and they are starting to affect what I can see

I suspect that when I get new lenses then I will see a whole new world!!


also thinking at getting some different ones for cycling
not "proper cycling" glasses - because TBH I would look like a pratt
(OK OK - more of a pratt)

but something with a bit of wraparound to keep the worst of teh pollen out and mean that when a rock the size of a CyberTruck (other names are available) comes flying rigth at me then I am not worrying that my main glasses have been killed!!!

My cycling glasses are tinted wrap around prescription. Not cheap but worth every penny.

Looking good for a while apart from chilly nights.

Good morning all.
A cool 4° and very dark.
I was enjoying a good solid sleep (for a change) when the need for a pee woke me up at 5. Shame really but I was 'awake' then so have got up.
Which makes me think (dangerous thing to do)........who used to say "I've arrived and to prove it I'm here"?
I could Google it but it is more fun asking you.

 

[Drago]

I have risen!

Will cut the grass today.

Morning all, I have been back in Lincoln since Monday afternoon I have the dentist tomorrow and then back across to Liverpool. Grand National weekend over there, we are not going to the races but will likely pop into the city on Saturday night for a spot of people watching. Have fun everyone.
