The Royal Show starts tomorrow
So I have to park in a field and WALK 10 mins to work. It's outrageous. On the plus side I can raid the food hall at lunch for delicious freebes.

Thus the questions are: Any perks of your job? What are you having for lunch? And if you could dress Captain V up as anything what would it be (minus points for a cat)?

perks
we tend to get all expenses paid trips to holland every now and then. as well as the obvious bupa and dental care, we get to basically show up when we want, don't get people looking over our shoulders and are pretty much free to fuck off when we want to.

that goes a long way if you ask me

You know it's really rude
to be that smug before 10.

I couldn't help myself
I needed to persuade myself that there is good reason why I am here before 9 on a monday morning.

also: I'm having chicken tikka and mango chutney rolls for lunch

I've got the exciting choice for either marmite, jam or penutbutter
unless we go out for something

will update whether my lunch was tastier then yours or not

Captain V as a Smurf.
No perks, Chicken and jalapeno cheese sarnies.

Perks?
If my DNA is ever found at a crime scene I will be automatically eliminated as a suspect.
*sharpens axe*
Lunch = 6" turkey and ham sub with everything except sweetcorn and chipotle southwest sauce.

I would dress V up as a
Chicken, or a sheep.

I'll be eating a Subway sammich for lunch.

Perks for my job, none, ever!

Is everyone having subway?
Aww I want subway *sadface*

Looks like itdoesn't it!
I'd buy you one, but I don't think it'd be very fresh by the time I could get it to you.

Sub of the Day
Is actually cheaper than a cheap baguette from the canteen. Plus it's right on my way to work so adds 3 minutes max to my journey.

I prefer their coffee and cookies'

I'd glue tinfoil all over him,
And stick flashing bike-lights to various bodily locations, thus making him into a tiny robot.
( Cawl, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:19, Reply)

Awww
I'd love a tiny V robot! Can we actually do this?
( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:22, Reply)

I reckon we can.
Just feed him enough cider and he agrees to anything.
( Cawl, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:26, Reply)

Woohoo
You get the cider I'll get the tinfoil, glue and lightbulbs
( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:28, Reply)

Done.

( Cawl, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:29, Reply)

Can we use solder instead of glue?
It would be more fun, and you'd get the bonus of the smell of cooking V too.
(Bazongaloid, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:29, Reply)

Judge rules....
Solder!
( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:31, Reply)

Wooo!
Get in!
(Bazongaloid, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:31, Reply)

I like this.
V might not.
But he doesn't get an opinion.
( Cawl, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:35, Reply)

Damn straight he doesn't

(Bazongaloid, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:36, Reply)

If you start giving V an opinion
you'll end up with women and darkies and spackos having the vote, and then where would we be?
(Bazongaloid, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:37, Reply)

Somewhere
wild and uncivilised. Like Australia

We'd be at The End Of Days,
That's where.
( Cawl, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:39, Reply)

I approve

( Captain V, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:38, Reply)

Shut it V!
You don't have an opinion
(Bazongaloid, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:40, Reply)

In fact V
I don't recall restoring your speaking privilidges
( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:41, Reply)

I'm not even allowed to approve bullying me?
*is confused*
( Captain V, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 9:59, Reply)

NO you're
not allowed anything
( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 10:08, Reply)

not even a sausage!

(smathels left-wing not feckin' chicken wing, Mon 6 Jul 2009, 10:58, Reply)

ning.
The perks of my job are that I have no contracted hours and I have my own office.

I'm having leftover sausages and mash for lunch.

I'd dress V up in sequinned nipple tassles. He looks great in those. Gaz me for photos.
