I bet there has been quite a few jokes pulled in offices up and down the country today, maybe even worse than mine.

Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Usually after banding up, my arms and wrists look like a suicidal heroin addict's. If RM are spending £1m per year on these bands can't they spend an extra 50p and get some decent ones? Oh, and some decent boots that last longer than a week and some waterproof that are actually waterproof. If they are short of cash I know where they can get some plasma screen t.v's that are hardly used, I'm sure they'd get a few quid for them on eBay.

Now are you quite sure about that, because I got to thinking :hmmmm :hmmmm a fortnight stuck up on Cadair Idris would cure him of his prankish ways. And yes, I've walked that walk many moons ago.

I said that in an email to the cwu a while back. Basically, why don't you do something useful and fight for a better uniform for us instead of the ice skating shoes we've got and coats that are far from storm proof.

All I got was subscribed to a newsletter I didn't want.
