A Small Victory
...once sang Faith No More. This weekend I've kicked the arse out of a very difficult upgrade for a customer, got a free Indian takeaway, sold lots of shit I didn't want on eBay and had excellent ice-cream. What small victories have you had this weekend?

and may have found someone who's actually going to be good! This is a massive victory if it means I can get decent staff but also a bit sad as I'm going to have to sack someone and I'm scared :(

There's an article about the NPIA in todays Daily Mail
about how staff have "abused" tax-funded credit cards to buy such luxury items as "fancy lingerie" and "beehives" leading to "outrage".
You have to get to about paragraph 10 to discover that the lingerie was for a simulated crimescene at a training college and the beehives were to support another training centre's market garden - where they save money by growing their own fruit and veg.
I love the neutral impartial journalism that the Mail provides.

The answer to your question is in my original post
The rankings go Beginners - Novice - Intermediate - Pre-Champ - Amateur. I know that sounds daft but once you win Amateur a few times, you can turn Professional.
Intermediate is the goal because at that level there's no restriction on syllabus so we can do whatever choreography we want.

Morning you
The dress rules are variable; the major competitions have restrictions below Intermediate, but the smaller local ones will let us do the full tailcoat/slashed-to-the-waist shirt/rhinestone-tastic dresses at Novice level.
This is very exciting for Ms Foxtrot but less so for me. Partly because tailsuits are fucking expensive, and partly because the sight of me in a slashed-to-the-waist shirt would be... unseemly.

Mike Patton, astonishingly gifted vocalist although he is, was a complete mentalist. There's an awesome video of them performing Caffeine live on MTV from '92, where it suddenly becomes apparent that they're not quite as audience-friendly as The Real Thing would have had you believe. Because he looks and sounds like he's having an aneurysm.

yes, al. i can read. i could read the article. it was pointing out all the incidents. that was one of them.
why the fuck does that make it any less horrifying? if your missus got hacked up by a machete by a baying mob of people, would you be OK about it in 2031?
somehow i think not.

are they the ones with funny names that they keep changing?
i had to laugh at that, last week. i was having exactly the same problem with some upperclass rahs who have all fallen out with each other. one minute it's "sir mimsy-porpington-doo-dah" and the next minute it's "miffy".
seriously. why can't people just be fucking consistent.

Maybe the policeman who reported it had no idea that it potentially was a bullet that another policeman fired, and he was only reporting what he knew at that time to be the truth?

Yes, you're right
it could just be a completely innocent mistake on behalf of the police. Much like when they said that protesters had hurled bricks and bottles at them when they tried to save Ian Tomlinsons life.

Don't get grouchy at me, I'm only offering a different point of view mate.
We have only heard a few reports about the riots here. It made the news on sunday and that was it.

That doesn't mean they are lying now...
my personal experience of the police has never been anything but excellent, this goes for people I know who have called on their help as well. i therefore judge by these experiences rather than those that have been filtered through the press.

I am very much witholding judgement for now, personally.
It's very hard to get the OK for the police to shoot someone - particularly since the tragic demise of our Newsagent of Hearts, John Menzies.

good tips
we're probably going to get a couple of pieces of memory foam to use as a mattress, or seat cushions when it is in seat mode.
My other half has just sent me a CAD drawing she has done of the bed mechanism we have designed. She's awesome.

Yeah, all of the above.
It is about 50% less gay than my bike in the UK (based on cost) but very enjoyable to ride. It needs a shorter stem as the frame is slightly longer than my other bike so my hands go numb when I'm riding on the hoods.

i'm an excellent driver. he actually hit the car he squeezed up next to, rather than reverse just about 5 metres to an EMPTY SPACE. i think he was on something, to overreact like that.
with a bit of luck he'll meet you on your bike, do us all a favour.

Nothing at all
but the bike I have in the UK is in my shed, and therefore it's very difficult to use while I'm in the south of France. But the new bike I bought will live at my In-Laws house in france so when I'm out there on Holiday I can ride it.
