for some reason
yesterday - at both my jobs - was brilliant.
I sold a motel room to a customer all by myself while on "reception".

AND
I got a 200 flipping dollar cash tip at the restaurant. The punters fucking loved me!

*monies in the bank*

Well done that cat
Put the money towards something sensible, though, because if you put in in the bank you may never see it again...

Tell me - I have an inexcusable ignorance of all things Antipodean - do you have the bi-annual charade of arseing about putting clocks forward or back an hour?

It's arseing-about-with-time weekend again here and after 40 and a half years practise I've STILL fucked the concept up, again.

Did you go and put them backwards again Disappointed?
That would probably put you a bit out from everyone else. 2 hours off if you want to nitpick.

Not quite
I spent an extra hour in the boozer, then cracked open a bottle when I got home, thinking I've got another hour's sleep before I need to get up for work tomorrow.

Now I've realised that I've got an hour's LESS sleep.

But it's good wine and I'm unlikely to be busy tomorrow so fuck it, eh?

we do change the clocks
yes.

And the money is going into my UK account. Brings me up to exactly 4 grand for my trip there next year. :D

Four grand?
Blimey, chuck! You're half-way to buying the plane!

I have been stricken by a sudden and uncharacteristic onslaught of propriety, have returned the wine to the fridge and am off for a telescoped sleep.

Night.

The way around it
is to just spazz out and go to sleep the night before and when your hear the pips on the radio the next morning you set your watch to that time.

Fuck all that winding clocks forward etc - That's far too organised.

Good effort VC. You're aware of Ye Olde English custom that you have to buy a beer for everyone you speak to on the interweb?

Are you both well. And you VC?

POD VC Blaireau
How goes it?

I are monumentally cunted by the way of booze - I'm only staying up so I can bathe my tramp in dossergame to get more points.

One more beer I think and then bed. When I stop making sense you may give me a scooch round the bak of the head and I'll scuttle away to my lovely warm pit.

Back from the pub!
I have signed up for Random Burn 2009 (see calendar) because I think it sounds awesome.
