I think there are a couple of other things on before cider bash.
Although I did call in at the Apple last week and asked them what is likely to be on when we're due to arrive.

It'll be their annual St Georges' Day party. So expect apple bobbing, a hog roast and all english music - amongst other things.

So it'll be an outstanding hangover inducing event.

What time are you planning on arriving?

I'm crying, I'm crying into my object orientaged programing pre-hypertext proccessor.
I've spent 4 days trying to fix a wordpress site with 7k articles, it's one of the biggest road cycling sites in the Europe. Four solid days, with 2 days for the weekend in the middle when I was thinking about it.

I just got a very very angry email because some articles didn't make the transfer, it's OK because I can restore them, but I told them all to write all their articles on their computers and not directly into the news system (wordpress) on friday. They don't deserve me to restore their artcles that went missing since then, on account of them being so mean about me and implying I'm incompeitant... while not taking note of my instructions.

And get this right, I got a cod'n'chips for dinner as I got paid today, but they only had a tiny cod, so I said "What are those things over there?" I could see them in the background and they said they were Fish Coujons, so I got a couple of them to top up the fish to potato ratio... and they're only 75p each, BUT, but, listen, they're about 1/4 of the side of a cod. I'm not buying cod again, 4 or 5 of those is like £3-£3.75 instead of £6. And there is more batter !

I am having a busy time not helped by corporate reminders about misuse of company resources indicating I have to be most circumspect in my b3ting during the day, which mostly means I skim threads at lunchtime and after my boss leaves.

"it's not that your not meeting your targets, but there's a *PERCEPTION* if you're seen surfing that you're not giving 100%"

Well of course I'm not, if I was giving 100% the disparity between myself and Idiot Coworker would be so great you'd be forced to sack her and she's a single mum. WHAT KIND OF MONSTER ARE YOU?
