How are you this evening?

I just found out how to edit Wikipedia. Never tried before :)
( fuck shit up the best you never had, Tue 15 Jul 2008, 18:40, Reply)

I'm not bad
Had a mental day though, and was late for work for the first time ever.

Can't say I have ever edited wiki.

How was your half day vetting?

*brushes off the plaster dust*
evening folks

can I just take a moment to celebrate the crowbar, prince of tools.

*celebrates*

I thank you
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 15 Jul 2008, 18:47, Reply)

Did they make you make the time up when you finished?
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.

Evening all
Remember we were discussing weed wands the other day? Well, I've just watched an article on Reporting Scotland about someone setting fire to his neighbour's garden with one.

Totally burned it out.

I was only like 3 minutes late
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.

I have a lasagne in the oven and life is good.
How are we all?

Yay for finishing early
and for you staying with the guy. At my old job I was bollocked for staying with a cyclist who had most of the skin of his foot taken off when he argued with a lorry. Fuckers.

Mmmm...lasagne :)

have you been demolishing lathes and plaster by any chance?

And crowbars FTW

you got bollocked for being late for that?
what is wrong with people?

also, mmm lasagne

and cheap crowbars are the business. mine was a present a while ago, but I know for a fact it cost 87p.

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 :-)

@MM: partly. there's been tile removal, plaster removal straight off the bricks, and some lathe and plaster removal

I was supposed to be opening up the clinic
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.

Edit: Shit it's gone. I guess someone complained to wiki. I just said about OT and how nice it is and listed everyone I could think of.

Just went back in my browser and it was this
'''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

but this has led to me looking in my shared folder and discovering what I grabbed last time I got pissed at home. Oh dear.

Edited highlights:

Babylon Zoo - Spaceman
Charles & Eddie - Would I lie to you?
Edwin Starr - War
Mr. Mister - Kyrie Eleison
Paul Hardcastle - 19
Dolly Parton - Jolene

I am not sure I should be allowed on the internet unsupervised.

thank you Wookie :) Been trying to think what the hell it is. Was thinking maybe we should all go there for my birthday bash? Could be fun.

A and BK, you can do eeeeet. I know I can...14 hours and still not wanting one so this patch is doing something at least.

Aww Clendrix, I want to meet herr doktor and Che. Make them come to the next bash please :)

Edit: K2k6, out of that sentance I understood lasers...lasers are fun!

so I don't think he can come. He's really lovely!

DiT - your 'name' was mentioned...we figured you must have forgotten. I wish I'd reminded you. Are you coming out with us next week?

Herr Doktor will need some persuading to come to the Big Bash, but I reckon he might!

Lasers
are indeed fun. Especially when you use them to destroy things.

Most scientific research doesn't involve that aspect of lasers, but one must test one's equipment's maximum performance from time to time...

I really am. I got to London Bridge thinking 'I know I should be somewhere', but figured I always feel like that so what the hell.

Crap and double crap.

Dunno if I'll be out next week, I'm a bit crap at mid-week shenanigans. But maybe. As it is I might have to miss August 8th (?) because of a family do.

Bowling Lanes
Very popular, so need to book (and pay!) in advance! I had to book a few weeks ahead to get two lanes.

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.

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.

If we have time to get a couple of pints in before we start,
I'll stand a chance of bowling above a 50.

There are karaoke rooms at the bowling place...

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.

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

Bloomsbury Bowling Rules.
But I do get hyper competitive at any kind of sport. If we go, I'll try to be good! As in, well-behaved. :)
( Devil_In_Tights the *real* DiT!, Tue 15 Jul 2008, 22:42, Reply)

Bumpers are like
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
( fuck shit up the best you never had, Tue 15 Jul 2008, 22:43, Reply)

@ Ancrenne
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.

( thealternativefact, Tue 15 Jul 2008, 22:45, Reply)

I have been bowling
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?
( K2k6 has a proper job these days, Tue 15 Jul 2008, 22:46, Reply)

In theory
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.
( Cawl, Tue 15 Jul 2008, 22:46, Reply)

I got a strike last time I went.
My celebrations were best described as excessive.

One strike, that is. From three games.
(wellgroomedwookiee is a filthy-minded hobgoblin, Tue 15 Jul 2008, 22:47, Reply)

A turkey is a good thing.
Three strikes in a row, I believe.
(wellgroomedwookiee is a filthy-minded hobgoblin, Tue 15 Jul 2008, 22:48, Reply)

Hey, K2k6..
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.
