In capitals just to show how much I mean what I say.

How many of the DK's are still alive?
Jello certainly is although he wants nothing more to do with them.

I'm just a little bit too young to have seen many of the bands that I grew up with in their finest.
I've seen Devo, 999, Crass, and, by getting away from a funeral after a phone call, the one and only original line-up Damned reunion.
A DK reunion would be splendid.

But I like music from the punk era, and anything else that catches my ear

And could make you weep!
I was at the last ever gig of the original Echo and the Bunnymen (Liverpool Royal Court, December 1988.)
I've seen The Clash (Lancaster University 1982.)
I wasn't at LiveAid - because I was at Act/Propaganda at Glasgow Barrowlands that night.
Any more?

But your taste in music is too good

Let me know how 41 feels.
40 wasn't a problem but 41 is a lurch into another decade.

I will sing anything, anywhere, badly.
I've been walking around work today singing "Just a spoonful of sugar" from Mary Poppins.
Possibly because there are very strong suggestions now that we have a buyer and we may not all be getting made redundant in January.

But credible rumours.
And if the rumours are right we'll be going into good hands.
This was always going to be my job until I retire - I only started with the company 4 years ago but finally, at nearly 41, I've found a job that I really enjoy.
More to the point, it might mean that we can keep the staff too.

I work for Grattan/Freemans.
You can no longer wank over the underwear pages in the catalogues, because there won't BE any more catalogues.

Maybe the reason for this is that as more and more people discover Internet pr0n, the need for underwear catalogues has become reduced. Yet another forgotten victim of progress...

It will be a sad day for anyone who still has 56k

I've let good people go and maybe we'll need them back again.
Nothing about this entire process makes me feel good.
If I've taken anything out of this, it's that being management is hell.

Was once involved in a small start-up that failed. If there's anything I learned out of that experience, it's the role that upper management play.
