What is making you smile or laugh today?

Excellent. You've been after the head washer-up role for a while.

:winking:

Personalised scourers, my own sink and a Darth Vader apron are just some of the perks of my new role. I hear they've offered my old job out already, apparently to some guy who used to be a freelance events organiser. I'll look forward to bossing him around.

Now normally working 5 hours on a Saturday wouldn't be in a happy thread but I've had a great catch up day and have just rewarded myself with a pint of Guinness and home made Steak 'n kidney pud, chips and veg in a great little pub called the Trafalgar. Now rushing around to get home with a bit of shopping to do om the way before heading back for Arsenal v Spurs though the pubs will be rammed for that.

Off to Tokyo for 3 days tomorrow. Ordinarily wouldn't be excited as the place does nothing for me (may as well be on Mars) but we have new offices and it means I get to stay at Shangri-la almost on top of Tokyo Central and to cap it all fly in and out of Haneda rater than Narita. Much less stressful.

Pompous, self-important oafs.

Also,the fact that I'm off out this evening to see an excellent folk duo, who are mates of mine,at an English pub.Since one of them is a Brizzle Rovers supporter,I've got bragging rights for the first time in a while.A result at Torquay would be nice to take to the gig too.

Not only do I have great views of Mt Fuji but I weighed myself for first time since August. Down to 10 10. Almost at target weight of 10-1/2 stone from 12-1/4. A Guinness diet really works ! Nope I've not been starving myself just healthy Asian cuisine.

Podcast of new 6 music show Adam & Edith....whilst Bowman is just a pointless straight (wo)man and you could throw any DJ in the mix, AB is a comedy genius and I'm having to stifle the laughter in the office.

Some of his defending in our Championship season met that criteria.

Company class cancellations.:angry:
Yesterday(via email)I had three Wednesday afternoon classes cancelled.I usually insist on 48 hour's notice but that difficult to insist on in the current economic climate,especially if you want to retain goodwill.
Still I suppose I could always submit my invoice anyway and check what's on at the flics.:smile:

Being able to buy my missus' xmas pressies without leaving the office. RESULT!

Not supposed to get hangovers til next week, I thought.

ETA: Advent calendar trolls (well, one would hope, given that this is an advent calendar of small presents from parents) on youtube... today's present? An... ahem... exotic DVD...

I haven't howled like that since... yesterday actually. Gollum's hilarious. And as for Bilbo, well, regarding your last line, Mr Freeman, I have one sentence: You ruddy great silly muppet!
