Work may be boring, but working from home is even worse. Today consisted of completing madatory e-learning courses of...

• Responsibility for information
• Diversity & Inclusion
• Health & safety
• Something else so dull it has already been wiped from my mind.

Which used exactly the same courses as when they last had to be completed two years ago and two years before that.

Had to go out for an hour's lunchtime fast ride to clear my head.

That last one will be the one they test you on.

If you PM me your address, I could send you some (as long as the FDA doesn't take it into the wilderness and nuke it, that is! )

They will.

Erm no.

Newcastle Brown Ale (the beer of choice in my undergraduate days back in the mid 90s) was always served in a schooner. Which is half a pint.

18 to 32 ounces in The States.

18 to 32 ounces in The States.

Fluid ounces? Or just... ounces?

 

[classic33]

They will.

Is that because it may be illegal to possess?

Fluid ounces. Most places around me serve 32 fl oz. Except the bar named, appropriately for the conversation, Schooners. 20 fl.oz.., in a glass like a sherry glass.

32 fluid ounces is more than a pint and a half!

That makes it just over three times the volume of my favourite "Hello Kitty" mug, which is bang on half a pint.

Anyways, bed for me, via a nice hot bath with lots of scented bubbles. Nunnight one and all xxx

Illegal to import, not possess, most likely..

Morning.
The rumours of rain are true ! I've been out to put our dustbin out and it is wet out .

Our bar of soap downstairs has snapped in half ! Should I drill and pin it or is there any glue which I could use to mend it ?

Black bin day, today.
