But none of them were in the pub.
I don't understand it.

Haha, frogs aren't generally known for frequenting licensed establishments
are you perhaps thinking of your own shag-happy path and whether than involves drinking?

I thought frogs liked getting leg-less.
1-0 Bristol.

If this is leading up to some terrible pun
then I shall go to bed now.

No, it's not berk.
The streets really were paved with frogs this evening.

Any feedback from the interview yet?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 11 Feb 2011, 0:16, Reply)

Nope
They said tomorrow or Monday latest. I did get a no from Manchester though, shower of cunts that they are :(

Who wants to go to Manchester eh?
This Mad Dogs I'm watching (Sky One, no idea if they've got a online player thingy) is, currently, worth watching).

I have my fingers crossed for you though, regarding Edinburgh. Were the labs nice?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 11 Feb 2011, 0:20, Reply)

The actual lab facilities
weren't actually all that shiny. Adequate, but not amazing. But that's possibly because it's so much busier than our labs, there's lots of Interesting Science going on there. And Edinburgh would be a great place to live.
But I really really mustn't get my hopes up, I know the chances of me getting it are slim.

EDIT - what's wrong with Manchester? It's actually a really nice city, bits of it.

berk
There is nothing wrong with Manchester, other than the fact they turned you down!

I was being 'pro berk'

Edinburgh would be a cool place to live though!

Well, we'll see
it's the waiting now that I hate. At least with the last one I knew I'd fucked it up to a degree such that I blatantly wouldn't get it.

Hows your jobstuff going? Still thinking of moving?

It's a mixed bag.
I never previously realised what a shower of cunt recruitment agencies were.

They make estate agents seem almost holy.

But I'm getting wise to the pitfalls and working from there, and making some progress. So we'll wait and see!

I'm positive though.

What fun have you got planned this weekend?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 11 Feb 2011, 0:33, Reply)

Might be going out tomorrow to a vintage themed night
which will be exciting if it happens, then chores and babysitting on saturday, general monging out on sunday. You?
(berk, Fri 11 Feb 2011, 0:34, Reply)

Birthday dinner and football are filling my schedule at the moment.
That'll be enough to mark the weekend.

How does the vintage night work?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 11 Feb 2011, 0:39, Reply)

Your birthday or somebody elses?
it's basically a sort of late-license night in a pub, playing music from the '20s to the '60s. Sometimes they have a swing band. It looks like a good giggle anyway, and they have Aspall's on tap, so.. *shrugs* it's only 15 minutes walk from mine and if it's shit I'll stay for a couple and come home again. That is, assuming I can persuade anyone to come out. I really don't fancy going on my own.

Pubs on your own are brilliant.
It forces you to speak to randoms.

Granted, as a bloke this is easier, I'm sure, than if you're female. Have you lined up any company for the night?

*ahem*
your birthday or someone elses?
I don't mind talking to randoms as long as they talk to me first; I'm generally too shy to intrude. I've asked two girls from work but got two maybes.

My birthday is in September
So it's mate!

More people should use pubs on their own, take a good book, sit near the fire and enjoy the fact you're surrounded by people.

(Is this turning into the berk and Jeff show?)
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 11 Feb 2011, 0:53, Reply)

I think it may be, a little
I ought to go to bed soon though. It's a bit different wandering in to a pub on your own in the early evening though, than it is to go out at night dancing and whatnot.

Well I shall wish you good night.
I trust you'll wish me likewise.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 11 Feb 2011, 1:04, Reply)

But of course!
goodnight Jeff :)

It's a very nice city, apart from Longsight, Levenshulme, Moss Side, Wythenshawe, Gorton, Burnage, Rusholme, Fallowfield, Moston, Blackley, Crumpsall, Collyhurst, Droylsden, Castlefield, Trafford, Reddish, Salford, Eccles, Swinton and Pendlebury.
