Pleased that the renovation work on our bathrooms has finished. 3 weeks of living like a tramp, trying to avoid spending time at home in the evening by staying at work late/going out/going for late night runs/not watching TV and going straight to bed (reading TZ on iPad ) because of all the dust and clutter created by builders who have taken over the place.
The dust really does get everywhere...even over clothes in closed wardrobes?!
Had major clean done yesterday with professional company, place is liveable again. Now to unpack the boxes that we put stuff in to give the cleaners access. It's like unpacking after moving house.
My former line manager called today, and collected my laptop, security pass, and corporate expenses card.
I am now officially free. It's a strange feeling, but one which I can heartily recommend.
Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.
Recent new baby (10wks) + 1 x lively 4yr old + self-employment + loads of work + currently moving premises =
Constantly tired as fook :)
With spaghetti (alla puttanesca)
im beginning to think that this was a bad idea.
A head teacher I worked with once had a major coronary not long into his tenure with us. Four-way bypass and he was off for six months. It wasn't that long after he returned to work when he'd nip into the dining room for the dietary salad he was supposed to have - with his dinner on top: salad, meat, gravy, or salad, spag bog, etc. His plate was often an equilateral triangle in cross section. No idea how he survived. Still going I think, 20 years later.
Why do all Manchester hotels only have 2 lifts? In order for lift management software to be able to do anything clever, in terms of pre-positioning, you need at least 3 from what I understand.
Off to a band later, fat tits and tats, not sure it'll be my cup of tea
Just discovered Isklar sparkling water........... fantastic.

Amongst men in the kitchen it probably divides opinion, but I for one am not a particular fan of the garlic press.
The flat of a wide knife, palmed, with the then crushed garlic chopped a much better technique I think.
I have a brand new, but dead, First Capital Connect watch on my desk.
I can't decide whether to get a new battery for it, or chuck it in the bin.
Stupid, stupid project manager. "Can you drop everything else and do it now?" -I reply that there's no point, because of all the dependencies. "Can you drop everything else and do it now?" etc. etc.
Builder arrived today, made lots of noise, ripped up a floor, created dust and destroyed a wall.
He seemed happy that progress was being.

Whoever does not know how to hit the nail on the head should be asked not to hit it at all.

In Germany it would appear the 'form' is to bang the table with one hand after the presenter has finished.
It feels a bit odd to me - I'd rather clap, but don't want to be the odd one out. :)

Hopefully I am the only TZUK forum member to have drunk his own piss.
Anyone else care to confess?
In true Spinal Tap mode, drinking someone else's doesn't count.
I never knew the Royal Automobile Club in Pall Mall had its' own post office.
Tomorrow morning the movers are coming and afterwards it will be my last day at the old job - farewell party included.
Then early flight on Friday morning...
Chimley or Chimney
Ambliance or Ambulance
In or out
Up or Down
This or That
Yes or No
Right or Left or was that wrong!.
I'm so confused.
I've only just realised that I've been wearing odd shoes all day. Just call me Garret Fitzgerald.
To the wanker in the R8 who nearly ran me off the road in his attempt to get one place in front of me in the traffic tonight - well done (with your made up pseudo private 'cheapo' private number plate. I am glad you appeared to suffer an uncontrolled bowel movement after realising I was a) in uniform and b) my car has covert grill lights.
BTW, not the brightest move to put your phone to your ear to avoid eye contact at the next set of traffic lights - tosser!!!.

I received my first set of varifocals yesterday and am very happy. I can see the date again on my watch!
Should I Hoover the stairs or have a crap first?
It's the 'Random Disclosure' thread.
So, my stairs carpet is minging, or I could do with a crap, would be more on topic.
Personally I'd hoover the stairs on the way up for a dump

I had Thai food last night. My morning turn-out earlier still smelt of poo
