What did she do to make you chuckle?
She told me the size of your overdraft.
Size isn't everything.
It's what you do with it that counts.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

Little bit easier but still struggling for staff at key times. Isn't going to get any easier I know so why do they want lapsing back? :hmmmm

Average sort of sat really. Three full mech trays, about 40 mins on the ips and overflowing packet bag.

Out by 8am and back at 12.05pm, 20 min break and then off home.

Stayed dry :Very Happy

Not too bad yesterday. Day off today so I did the shopping and chilled out. Tried to help a mate get his printer going... waste of time. Sunny for the last couple of days and it's set to continue for a while... so Diane the weather girl tells us. :coolr

Yeah had that too, unbelievable. Sadly it was to an area where they tend to put the decorations up no later than Halloween, that is if they bother taking them down at all. Hence i had dozens of the f**kers.

Revision went in at my office this week, using a trolley on a 620 stop private estate, duty took 5 and a half hours to do today in the blazing sun. I actually don't feel well at all now. Completely and utterly knackered and i'm only 27, theres guys twice my age doing this, its only a matter of time until something serious happens.

Wednesday and today were both heavy although today was a bit easier. Loads of DSA coming through. Loads of recorded items. Been hot the last few days and doesn't look like cooling for a while yet.
