This is a question Bastard Colleagues

You've all known one. The brown-nosing fucker, the 'comedian', the drunk, the gossip and of course the weird one with no mates who goes bell ringing, looks like Mr Majika and sports a monk's haircut (and is a woman).

Tell us about yours...

Thanks to Deskbound for the idea

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you... myself.
I'm sort of a colleague, aren't I? I mean, you see me most days on here...

So why am I a bastard? Well, for starters, while most of you have been huddling in England in the lovely drizzle, I've spent the past few days in the Florida Keys. Here's a picture I shot this morning as I sat outside with my coffee:



When I called my friend Richard and told him that I was wearing shorts and drinking coffee on the sand, he called me a rat bastard.

But worse is to come...

Yesterday when we got back from exploring a beach to the south of our resort, we thought we might check out the pool. Well, January here is still a bit cool, so we concluded that the water was still a bit too chilly for our tastes. Apparently the rest of the adults there felt the same way, as there were only children splashing around in the pool. I suddenly thought of the phrase "dropping the kids off at the pool" and giggled for a moment, then shared that observation with the Lunatic Artist, who chuckled.

Then I noticed the poolside bar:



And then I noticed that all of the kids in the pool were either black or Latino. So here were a bunch of small dark brown shapes bobbing around beneath that sign...

Exit (hastily) one madly giggling Loon and one rather appalled Artist.

Yes, I accept that I'm going to hell- but I'll have lots of company, as I can hear you lot giggling too!

You may be in Florida!
But we have Jelly babies.

And various silly named beers.

*clicks*
First of all, you're a bastard for being there when I'm sat in a grey industrial estate in London. That so very nearly denied you a click.

However, the daring non PCness did it for me.

Floaters.... *snigger*

Your behaviour is despicable...

So I'm only clicking 'I lIke this' because it's exactly the kind of thing I would do.

*Looks out of window at shite, foggy, dreary Birmingham*

*Sighs gently*

*Giggles at 'floaters' gag*

Bah
It's rather dull and depressing (nothing new there then) in Solihull today.

Have a click for the floaters though. :)

Well...............
Y'know, for a nice bloke you can be a right bastard sometimes!


"Click"

*clicky*
...for your rather fab first pic of the silhouetted palms. I likes.

Re: 'Floaters'. Aside your joke about the brown children (*snigger*), that's really a quite un0apetising name to associate with tasty beverages. Maybe you should have a word...

Macclesfield is shite as ever!

Grr.....*click*
