Afternoon
I had a cracking night last night, and I'm paying for it today.

Anadin has helped, as did the sausage, mushroom and egg butty I had for brunch. I've booked a hotel in Bristol for the football and am now wrestling with the ticket website for the match. You?

That sounds fun.

Is (insert name of your team here) playing at ashton Gate?

Yes, West Brom
plan is to go to the match, meet a few b3tans after for a few beers, then crash at a hotel and come back the next day. Don't know yet if I'm driving or getting the train.

there's a 22:10 one that gets into Birmingham at 00:20. That would obviate the need for a hotel, and it only takes 30 minutes more than the train or driving. Never used it before - I used to do National Express fairly regularly, I don't mind coaches.

Thing is though, with kitting out a place, is that it's a lot like shopping for food.
First you buy some bread, so you think "I know, I'll make sandwiches", so you get some ham, some cheese, some bread....so now you think you've got the makings of a good pasta dish, so you pick up some sauce and pasta and you no longer need sandwiches. But then you fancy something to use up the bottle of HP Guinness Sauce, so you get some chips, eggs for a fry up, some bacon, and now you have bacon there is no need for the ham, so you put that back, and are you really going to make a pasta bake? Ok, put the cheese back too. But the chips are no good for you, so they also go back and get replaced with some potatos for a jacket potato which is far more healthy.....etc etc.

Oh poo, I think it might be the rain, that sometimes creates static on the line if it's really heavy.
Do you know the box in the old office to switch on/off ? It's the small one with green lights and the other one with the blue lights.

gonz I'm online now and was talking about streaming top gear
this means I managed to survive going into the "office". I was mildly tempted to spend an hour cleaning it and throw all the ACTUAL rubbish that's in there, but then I laughed and realised there was no point whatsoever so I'm drinking cider and eating ribs and watching Antinques Roadshow

You might have warned me!
I just peed myself. I am physically, psychologically and clinically terrified of those bastards.

And no, I don't mean the Chinese.

Oh, I totally freak out.
Proper screaming and flailing arms and stuff.
