Hangover?? Never used to get them, but the last few times ive been out ive suffered the next day.

And as the lovely ferry company is laying on a free champagne lunch, I *might* have to take advantage :twisted: Plus theres so many cheap pubs in St Malo that we'll no doubt get rather merry and spend the trip back with an armful of sickbags

did I remember that right?



getting off the subject a bit here... whenever I'm reminded of latin I remember this story we had to translate each week right through the course and on the very last page the dog died. I was almost in tears in the middle of the class (I was only about 13). It was just so unexpected...there was no need to kill the dog off. I get upset just thinking about it.

Aparently the moto of a gentlemens club, NOT one I'd want to join!

stupid retards....I was supposed to image 12 computers here that were recently returned from a cadet camp. Some idiot decided that they were old computers(about 2 years old) so we would have no use for them, so they took all the memory out of them....so i spent the afternoon tracking down new memory so i could get them imaged....

Now I get to ho home...wax my skiis for the 24hr XC ski race i am doing tommorow...then hit up the pub for a few..

I'm at home by the fire with a cuppa, a purring cat and some new prescription painkillers... looking forward to a cosy night chilling... would be nicer with a fella, obviously, but for now painkillers & a cat seem like a good substitute :wink: (please don't misinterpret that!)

Just got home from my first all night operating shift. Went ok, was fairly quiet so wasnt overwhelmed with jobs or cars, but still managed to rake in £90 for 4 hours work (cash in hand, no tax or social!!). Am doing the same tonight and cant wait as theres usually more drivers on, which means more moolah for me :D

I was supposed to be leaving at 0530 this morning to go away surfing for the weekend, but when we went to fill the car up last night I rather unwisely had a spliff for the first time in months, and go so stoned I couldn't remember my pin number.

It's now locked my account for 24hrs!

It is pretty damn funny now I'm not so pissed off!

I thought I was being clever, after two failed attempts I thought it would swallow my card on the third so I went to another cashpoint and tried again and it told me that I had "Exceeded my maximum number of PIN attempts, please contact your bank or building society"

But at least it gave me my card back!
