A colleague on the phone to a supplier and the rhythmnic tapping of fingers on keyboards...
...and I'm sipping a diet coke.

Being asked to process an extra payment for an actress auditioning for a stage role that required full frontal nudity and simulated masturbation. She was seventy five years old.

Afternoon fella
Magnificent story on QOTW this week, I lolled most heartily at it.

Thank you - a true story in fact.
I like to remind Nugget two of the trouser soiling whenever he's surly in public.

Tough love and all that...
...poor little fecker broke his leg playing rugby a couple of weeks back and is trying to get around the house on crutches. I might start waxing the floors when I get home tonight.

Aye, I asked Madame Poulet how he was doing
She responded that he was a cheeky shit, and when being asked how his leg was, would respond 'Still broken', which is magnificent.

Yeah, underneath his surly facade there's a sense of humour there
Somewhere. He seems to think that everyone on b3ta is a "bunch of mincers".

I might let him out of the cellar in time for next weekend.

I hear a certain b3tan has started working for you.

Yes, she has...
...I can't mention names, but she's multi-talented - is there anything she can't do?

Keep her clothes on by the look of things.

I genuinely wouldn't know that!
But I inadvertantly discovered that my father in dabbling on Facebook ended up perving at some pics of her in rollerskates... Grubby old git!

i am guessing from your reply that you are not coming :(
( rachelswipe with a fork, Fri 20 Apr 2012, 12:24, Reply)

I'd completely forgotten that it was tomorrow! Oops...
...it's been a very busy few weeks and for some reason I assumed it was in May. D'oh!

Surely that's an excuse to throw another Lahndahn bashette soon?

I usually assume it's Bobby, Gonz or Al
but chickenlady was referenced. Name changes are a pain in the arse.
