Note to self. When cooking a chinese meal, don't start munching the prawn crackers whilst preparing it.

Hardly ate any. Stuffed. Oh well, there are about 4 lunches that can be frozen.

I tend to do that on the rare occasion we have chips, especially if we've been lazy and gone down the chip shop.

My colleague recently turned 40 and his partner turned 40 last month, they have 5 kids and 2 grandchildren, 4 years old and 2 months old,isn't that a bit young?

There are advantages to having children when you're young. It's probably not the modern model though.

Well it's very windy.

We have a training thingy today.
Someone's going to explain why we shouldn't mix cleaning chemicals, use bottles with no labels... And why you use each product on the right things.
You must have data sheets... Who the hell reads them..

Marvelous.. Reading the label obviously isn't enough then.
We get audited by CQC, Capita, and in house.. Constant training vidios..
Several hundred pounds wasted..
No wonder care cost's so much, we're paying for people to have a pointless job.

All good fun

I've got a replacement bike lock.

Bike lock now holding bike to rack. Will report on effectiveness in due course.

In other news: the paper bin is out.

(That's the Wheelie bin containing paper. Not a bin made of paper. Just to avoid confusion.)

It was quite amusing when I went down to Hampshire last week. Everything was fine until I spoke, and then I got the full on "you're not from around here then" looks.

There's a very marked difference between a Cambridgeshire accent and a Hampshire one.

I've known people from different regions of Germany speak English together to understand each other.

This morning I awoke thinking it was Friday.

I spent 15 minutes doing a Bank switch earning my self £150 for my trouble. Nice.

That giraffe is a Thornicroft's, found in only one valley in the world, and only some 500 remain.

Didn't Vosper Thornicroft make cranes as well as boats ?
