If not then yay :)
Was a good day thanks, I had an hour long meeting about what course I want to do and if it will start in September or January and do I pay or will the company pay. So lots of stuff to chase calls up on tomorrow as I want to get going on it. If I have to pay it'll suck a bit, but it's worth it.
And I finally have a diagnosis on what's wrong with my rubbish skin...keratosis pilaris. Basically means that I have spots at the age of 29 which I've known for fucking ages, but it's been a pain in the arse getting a referral to a dermatologist as I kept seeing the locum instead of my regular doctor as he was always on holiday.

Which isn't bad seeing as a guy tripped at the bus stop and split his head on the pavement, meaning I waited with him until the ambulance came. So I made up the time by shortening my lunch break slightly. And got finished 15 minutes early because it was quiet, which was nice.
Also, crowbars are amazing. Especially when bought from poundland.

also got to do some old fashioned circus strong man type stuff this evening. got a big fat old lead pipe down from the attic and as my gf walked into the room I bent it round into a series of circles :-)

we didn't even have any patients, so I figured it'd be fine as the vet would be there at 9am and I got there at 9.15 (should have been 8.30). Then again this is the company that fired me for working a night shift, then a half day, then another night shift and chucked a hissy fit when I refused to work another day shift. All consecutive.

'''QOTW Off topic'''
QOTW Off topic was invented for those users of QOTW who found they had things in common and liked to talk to each other using the reply system. Over several weeks it became clear that more and more people were preferring to chat to each other through the replies instead of the /talk board which was already set up, so Off topic was created. K2k6, Ancrenne, Kaol, beckyjsbx, Bert Monkeysex, Madam Marlboro, Devil in tights, Althegeordie, Boss Keloid, Clendrix, Rachelswipe, BobfossilHappy little tulip, Wanderlust, Crackhousecedilahband, Enzyme, Chickenlady, Big girls blouse, Davros' Grandad, Tourettes, Mistaspakkaman, Vipros, Penguin of death and Zapiola being the usual suspects found on there

Becky - we could just see how many are coming, book a couple of lanes and divide the cost between those present. Should be OK.
DiT - damn!

I think some sort of a lock would be in order, seeing as I've just discovered what is allegedly a Metallica version of the Imperial March from Star Wars.
Next search: S Club 7.
Edit: It's not Metallica. It's shit. :(

Well this isn't until November *pimps birthday bash unashamedly* so we've got time to round up the masses I reckon :) Would be a good idea to book in advance though as it'd be shit to get there and hang around waiting for an empty lane.
Damn his northern living ways.
Edit: 24 hours is good, now we've just got to make it through the rest of our lives without smoking...

I'll stand a chance of bowling above a 50.
Ooh ooh, can we have the bumpers up?

Becky - that's right, we have ages! Let's think about it in September.
There are karaoke rooms at the bowling place...

that's cheating.
Well it's bowling with a cool cinema that only shows bowling films - well they did when I was there anyway - karaoke and a diner and dancefloor.
Edit: Aha, I have googled and found it...

It didn't taste very nice, even after just one day.
Thursday in Sheffield for the gig will be the big test.

I was fairly proud. Unfortunately it followed sucking for the previous 8 shots, which was a shame.

But I do get hyper competitive at any kind of sport. If we go, I'll try to be good! As in, well-behaved. :)

stabilisers on bikes. They're big cushioney things at the sides so the ball cant drop down.
Ahh, but you can't smoke at the gig, so that should help :)
I think I did pretty well last time I played, I was off my face though, so could be wrong

Bumpers are the things that stop you guttering the ball every time.
I get quite competitive too, but it doesn't normally matter as I'm only competing with whoever's second from last.

numerous times in my life (and played consistently badly), but have yet to get a turkey!
Is this some sort of bowling terminology I have yet to encounter. Or was poultry straying onto the lanes?
Or was it just a raffle prize?

I'm rubbish at bowling.
But I can throw it pretty hard, so when I hit 'em, lots go down.
I just miss a lot.

My celebrations were best described as excessive.
One strike, that is. From three games.

Turkey = 3 strikes in a row!
EDIT: As someone else got there, I'll tell you that 6 in a row is called a six pack. Unless that's just on Wii Sports.

This is true - I may be chucking myself around with abandon so that might take my mind off it.
I will be stopping off in my favourite pub The Devonshire Cat beforehand though for a few cheeky Leffe's.

But it was my last three shots in the game, so I couldn't find out unfortunately. It did mean that the boys bet the girls though.
