Friday Lunch
Friday lunch where I work is a great chance to bugger off down the local for a few rounds of that liquid bread that's all the rage.

This week it was far more fun, as we have recently been gifted by the local uni some students who wish to earn industry experience over the summer.

Did I mention that this a very techy environment, for those that don't know, techies can drink a pub dry like locusts can strip farms clean (may be a slight exaggeration, but only slight mind). Now we all know that students can do pretty much the same thing - so long as funding is in ample supply (again a slight exaggeration, but only slight mind).

My disappointment is two-fold, the fact that I am no longer 21 and thus not able to partake of the liquid bread with as much vigour as I once did and the fact that the 4 students that accompanied this session to the public house drank less than me when tallied together.

Bloody students these days don't know how to enjoy a Friday lunch, it breaks my heart........

Length? It hasn't changed since I was 21, just learned how to better use it.

That's a good one.
I'm still a student, having stayed on as a postgrad. I'm not even that much of a drinker either, but in some of the studenty societies/groups I'm involved in, half the first-years just sit around drinking lemonade all evening. It's disgraceful. Just one example, my housemate's parents OWN A PUB, and he's teetotal, for fuck's sake. Bah.

There's a pub right next door to my office
So long as yuo don't have a meeting/lots of work on etc. On Fridays you're allowed to bring a pint back up with you and drink it at your desk.
Bliss.

I'm sorry that some are though.
