Favourite year ever!! :-)
Flanker - don't do it! Everyone I know ends up doing nothing but training and literally putting life on hold...
My mate even ended up virtually celebate...
Thanks to never getting to see friends or women and when he did he was knackered!!
Sounds like normal life doesn't it! Not! :-)
PPB good running. You will be down for the Kenilworth half next year at this rate.
Where is the masseur? He is off to the canaries any day. Oh we are back onto yellow birds again onions!
night night chaps, have fun
Not sure where my running plans are going to take me-the goal is nov 26th and a 10km with a decent time!
but instead.. me and OH have manage 7 together.. and hence the hesitation to marry.. :-)
and swimming Yuck! Yuck! yuck!
Anyone up for a trip to Derby Weds 27th Dec for a gentle 5km plod?????????
Living in sin is so much more "pleasurable"
Right OH is lingering with intent to spend on EBay...
so laters - kiddy winks!
Nite Nite!
Just a thought........nothing definate and given your all down south its an option as I am in Nottingham for Christmas!
Will look into the Belper Race, might be able to pursuade the Flash Family to come for a day out.....
So how are we celebrating you birthday JJ, other than rolling in mud and slurry all morning?
I vote you bring marj and pay for Itanlian after :-)
merely an opening suggestion to get the ball rolling.
(My advice is when you mention you have a significant birthday coming up dont invite 'guess the age' in the hope they may guess you are going to be 40. Because there will be at least one who says 60. And all too many will be accurate. You will get depressed. Dont do it.)
So what is the date JJ? Lets have it.
I will be racing the next day, in Oxfordshire, so drink will be off the cards. I think a little pre celebration in the mud for the two of us (Obviously not twins, as Stoat is clearly nowhere near 40 yet, and I will have edged into my late ones....) will do nicely.
Sorry can't do the 27th...
I'll be busy going.. "Boo!! Hisss! He's behind you!!"
No not the in-laws visiting... but yes at the panto! :-)
Two bug kids off to the panto! Cool!
Best weekend I have ever had.....
Back to reality, attempt to clean stoat towers
Can't beleive what I am having to do today!!
Bear in mind - I have quite a senior role...
working in a stressful, HUGE 1st tier automotive company...
The company is in serious sh!t at the mo.. with BMW and due to a serious of God level "issues" we're currently in freefall..
Loads of problems, issues, and monetary losses...
SO - the god's that be have decided to introduce a "clean desk" policy...
not even in a gentle - please tidy up, and remove components or anything..
but in a... movce everything from your desk and environment..
Contractors will be in on Saturday - if you leave it on your desk. etc it will be binned!!
What an excellant way to motivate your workforce, and what good value for money!
Because of course.. tidying up, and plastering over the cracks will make everything all right and all out problems go away...
UN-BELEIEVABLE!!!
I so love my job, and the company I work for....
and breathe...... 1....2....3... 1008, 1009, 1010... 3050, 3051....
Sorry!!
Oddly enough, I have been there, General Manager of a large distribution co, with a market in meltdown (When did you last buy a roll of film?)
Three years later I earn more money in a less demanding job, able to run circles round most of my colleagues, and with a fraction of the stress. (I hope no-one from my company reads this).
I loved that job, and the industry, but there is no way I'd go back (had a call from my old boss yesterday, doing the same job for a different company, so I headed off the possibility of a recall quickly).
Take it as it comes, don't let stupidity put you off your aims, and don't ever think that disaster is around the corner. it will just be a different opportunity.
Status and responsibility are only ever temporary, and we all have 23 problems. Wherever you go it is always "same sh!t, different day".
Knowing - the real problem we have.. that are being ignored...
and knowing the focus is on tidying the office...
Let's all just bury our heads, or just go and snuggle up and sleep for the winter..
All the meany baddies will have gone away by the time we wake up.. NOT!!
and intersting _ worked for Kodak when I was at Uni.. just as the impending doom of digital was raising it's head... funnily they though it wasn't going to be a problem - the digital thing would never catch on...
fortunately in automotive - cars aren't going to go out of fashion.. just the T*ssers that make the bits that do! Grr...
ROll on 6pm and spinning!! Can see a good session coming on!!!
