Objective 1: Don't oversleep.
Check.

Training over.
Overalls/uniform issued.
Security pass obtained.
Locker allocated.
1st 12hr day "back on shift" in 8 hrs time.
Watch Sky News to see if I mess up.......
Good to be back in that control room, tbh, really bloody good.

I hope that is for a very big tank of fuel and not price per litre?
Well spotted.
133.9p/litre

Saw one at dusk on Saturday. Big ###### it was. Never seen one in full daylight but would love to.
I saw one in my headlights.
They can't half wreck a car.......

I just filled up my car with fuel. £79.20
130.9p per litre of diesel. Comfortably the most I've paid for fuel by a very long way.It's £133.9 in Duckville, mate.

T'other half has gone playing 5 a side - can see a massage coming up
Is that what he calls it?
So do I, if both teams have 5 players.

Arrived at digs 5:45.
Met my lad for a few beers.

£ $, testing....
So the old format £ don't work in the new.

Five days in a row in London on the 7:18 train. Every day the train has departed exactly on time and actually arrived early on two of those days, the other three days it arrived on time.
See? The power of grumbling on t'interweb in this modern era
Non wintery weather?

Passed that medical ok.
Looks like I'm heading north again...
Digs sorted....

My little girl pointed me to this plus a few other literal videos.
Nice.

Dunno why either....
Edit: typo in "dunno"?
Jeez, maybe I'm pi$$ded....

"Pocket money"?

The snow is back, the best part of a foot.
Pictures may follow. It is possible.
Not here, mate.
Pi$$ed down, I can tell you....

I applied for 3 jobs before Christmas and I've not heard anything from any of them other than automated acknowledgements.
If you can handle the ###### pay and being in Duckville, my current job is free in 2 weeks...

Butterscotch Angel Delight is the true food of connoisseurs
And you missed the cheese course. Can you still get tubes of Primula?
I don't like the butterscotch one, and it is my menu...
The "cheese course" can be easily covered with cheezstrings and dairylee triangles (or a cheaper variant if available) with Tuc crackers, and a bag of mini cheddars.

Alternatively, you could just get a takeaway then zap it in the microwave. Stick a bit of some random herb on top and you've created a new speciality using your artistic side.
I'd lose points when they heard the "ping" though.....

Been thinking about trying to get on "Come Dine With Me".
Told a few workmates my proposed menu, they said go for it.
The menu itself is:
Starter, Mixed fruit and prawn cocktail.
Reality, this will be half a grapefruit, with a cherry in the centre, and a bag of prawn cocktail crisps.
Main, Turkey Drummers, instant mash and beans (value, obviously)
Desert, Angel Delight (Strawberry flavour) topped with half a real strawberry and dream topping.
Drinks, Tins of Graffenwalder lager or similar from Lidl/Aldi.
Anyone else think I'm on a winner here?
-
Cheers guys.
Looking forward to it....

Wait 'til Tony Blackburn and the Womble are finished blathering, and this is a favourite Mott Moment.
And the next you tube offering is Mawie Osmond singing Paper Woses?
How do the bods at u-tube link those together?
