A b&c would do me just fine. Especially with ice. In fact, anything with ice would suit me.
At work, I sit in a 'bay' of desks, and all the desks on the outer side of the bay have computers that are blasting their blasted heat in my direction.

As long as there's ice, I don't care about the fruit.
Was that a window you tried to fit, or just a window not part of what you were fitting?

window not within my remit...
or it would have found itself being relocated to the skip!!
i was re-fitting units that had been mis-fitted, hot and sweaty work at the best of times.
but on the plus side we saw a fantastic electric storm on the journey home.

It seems all the Northerners are getting lucky with their electric storms. London looks like it's going to have to wait for a temperature drop.

Not too bad
apart from the heat. As I said a few posts up, my company has turned my area of the open-plan office into a blast-furnace by sending the heat from the PCs' fans blowing in my direction. We do have air-conditioning, but it's only at the other end of the room.
How's yourself?

I'm sorry to hear that. I'm not sure if I'd rather be hot or cold. It's usually sub zero in my office year round.
Not a fan.
I would like to get drunk, gonna text the bff to see if she'd fancy some time at the bar tonight.

I think air-conditioning would be more efficient if they had a separate chill-room for people who had just come in from the outside.

Most of my Italian

I write and hear French all day at work with the odd bit of Italian thrown in - and have to send letters on from people who think we're the Italian Eurostar - but that's it.

1) fondue bourgignonne - meat and veggies cooked in hot oil.
2)fondue suisse - bread and suchlike dipped in melted cheese and kirschwasser

I'm tempted to since flatmate is not here to kill them for me (although he takes some persuading).
Especially the ones that are too high for me to cunt in the fuck. Whisk them all up and dispose of them that way.
