what's up today?

I have nothing eventful planned. as days go, today is going to be right up there with the most mundane of days. still probably more interesting than HSH ;-)

Work
Work, more work, light showers of work, then yet more work. Then shopping, if I remember.

Inspiring thread there :p
I'm trying to design referral forms in Word. How incredibly frustrating it is. I might have to find a copy of Quark before the day is out.

I can't believe the HSH threads are back
Actually, what I don't believe is that they disappeared and stayed away until becky's back at work. It's like the goofy kids who hide in the remedial class til the bigger boys go for their lunch.

yeah, it does seem to be that way.
as long as the reasonably interesting threads continue as well then I'm content. yesterday had a good crop I thought.

Agreed
It'd be nice if they used smaller bloody images though...

Don't care about image sizes as much
as the colours in the psychedelic one that make me have a seizure when I see it.

Agreed.
At least it's not the animated one any more.

You could just troll them into submission,
it's not that hard, they're all wimps.
(PsychoChomp, Wed 15 Jul 2009, 9:12, Reply)

I don't actually care.

( Cawl, Wed 15 Jul 2009, 9:18, Reply)

I don't care to the point of doing anything about it
but they didn't used to be as insipidly dull as they are currently.

I've adblocked them all I think
not great having a massive flashing image saying home sweet home when you are trying to look like you are working

Agreed
I just wrote to them about this without seeing this comment. Now I feel I have solidarity from you lot. That fecking huge multi-coloured banner makes anyone passing by notice it, which in turn makes it obvious that you're a time-wasting gimp at work. Not good.

Off to Preston!
Taking boy over for an interview at Myerscough (with forge assessment) to get a place on a farriery course. Should be good. Nice leisurely drive over and an overnight in Bilsborrow. Play nice while I'm gone.

I'd enjoy doing that sort of thing

if they ask him if he's ever shoed a horse get him to say "no but I told a donkey to fuck off"

edit: not sure what happened with that double post there.

NIN/JA?
If so, then hope you have huge amounts of fun!
( Cawl, Wed 15 Jul 2009, 9:50, Reply)

Nope
Jesca Hoop at Tamesis Docks. It's sort of folky.

Ah!
Quite a few folks that I know are off to the O2 for NIN/JA tonight, so figured you might be too.
Well, have fun all the same!

I hope to
She's weird and mellow and just slightly folk, but from what I've been able to find out the support acts are full-on aran sweater wearing nasal drone folk singers. Yikes.
