Things you'd like to say, but can't

Oh, what a fine Spring morning - I feel like riding 100 miles over our glorious local hills!

Actually, it may not be Spring and I don't have time to do 100 miles today, but the sun has finally appeared ... Maybe 50 km instead?

How was your day doing nothing whatsoever?

Me? No - it's been an easy day, I'd love to stand in a farking queue in my ski boots for 45mins to get you some farking lunch that costs £50.

Switzerland per chance?

 

[Tin Pot]

Switzerland per chance?

France actually. Practically parity with the pound on the exchange rate, but my fault for choosing a pricey ski resort admittedly.

€16/£16 for pasta bolognese? Why not!


I love taking the kids skiing but it is incredibly stressful, hard work - it's not a relaxing holiday.

I'm with you.......

As am I

 

[Lullabelle]

It's almost 5pm, I want to go home, it can wait until tomorrow

Cancer.... fark off!

Indeed. My cousin's partner succumbed to the big C recently. Don't get to see David often enough (he lives between Paris and Blackool, of all places) - never even got to meet John.

Oh, so the trip to Adnams Brewery is cancelled is it? I'm not surprised the way this exercise has been organised. I would say you're incompetent but that would be breaking the Official Secrets Act.

No organised P*** Up in the brewery then?

When I was at school, adding two plus two was four. I had not noticed that this had changed recently, but you are insistent that this must be referred to a higher authority. He will, using his expertise and years of training, be able to verify that four divided by two is two.

Is it the division that has made things complicated for you, or the subtraction?

Just having a laugh at this

The story doesnt really add up. Either the cyclists jumped a red or Charlie Austin accelerated so quickly when the lights turned green for him that he probably would of been breaking the speed limit when he collided with the cyclist..

Ethway, while I sympathise with Anthony Grey who most likely has life changing injuries It was only a matter of time till his luck ran out and karma came at him like a runaway freight train.

I laugh how hes telling people the roads arent safe etc etc. Well if youre gonna cycle like a pillock I doubt anywhere is safe

Better safe then sorry, Better alive then dead.

Antony should count his lucky stars he survived the accident.

Pay at pump always, for exactly this reason

My local petrol station doesn't have this facility, and anyway I fancy the cashier who is usually on when I go there.

Where was that ? Roundhay Fox? Sounds like it.

Happy memories! My Mum had a flat round the corner from there and when we came to visit (from West Wales, ~7 hours' drive) we would go immediately to the RF to have a drink/food and calm down before doing the family thing. To be fair, the food was always first class. That was around 2000-2002, so may have changed since then.

I am so sorry for your loss

Dear neighbour. I know you have a business to run and I know we are rather rural here. However it us still a residential area. Do you really think starting chainsawing at 8.15 am is acceptable?

It's not all about you. Arrogance is not confidence. I am quietly confident in my work because 30 years of experience in the field has taught me not to be cocky and to work diligently and to check or ask when I'm unsure, rather than bullshit and blag and forge ahead regardless.

Listening to you would be comical if it wasn't so sad that people perceived you to be the "clever" one because you are so loud and brash and you shout down everyone who tries to have any input. God forbid anyone who tries to correct the rubbish you spout. You don't know half as much as you think you do (and lead customers to believe), and if made-up-bollocks was currency you'd be a rich man. Sadly, and to our shame, we've all grown tired of trying to work with you so we just let you get on with it.

I'm just biding my time and waiting for you to really drop yourself in it, at which point I'll be laughing so hard on the inside it will take all my strength to hold back the tears of joy; either that or I'll finally get to leave this place and never see you again. Ahhh, bliss!

On learning that the above person is to leave our workplace in a couple of weeks ...

YES! YES! YES!!!!! The best news I've had all year (and I know it's only February but it's such GOOD NEWS that it'll take some topping).
