Evenin' Spak.
My last day off before the 25th.

None too sober, I'm afraid. What ho!

Evenin' TD
Got nearly another two weeks before I'm off for Xmas. Am sober now but have been going through a week of Xmas parties.

Thinking about it
I'm actually working on Xmas day too. I park up at 02.00 on the 25th.

Kids in North Leeds may gaze out of their windows hoping to see santa flying through the sky but may see me driving past in a knackered bus instead.

And instead of presents in their stockings
they're getting clouds of diesel fumes in their lungs.

Diesel Fumes
Made me the man I am today.

Can I sue Rudolf Diesel retrospectively, d'you think?
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:14, Reply)

If not, sue Vin Diesel.

I too don't want an Xmas name. I've grown too fond of my username and wouldn't give it up for anything in the world.
( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 19:53, Reply)

I think we should trade

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 19:59, Reply)

Nah thanks
I prefer to keep mine. But if you really want, you can rename yourself 'kristinespakkalass'.

haha charming

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:14, Reply)

Ah well. Your choice.
But if you don't mark your 'territory', someone else will.
( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:23, Reply)

what exactly are you trying to say?

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:27, Reply)

Someone else
will want to incorporate elements of my username in theirs.
( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:44, Reply)

I'm not sure which elements I'd like to incorporate

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:47, Reply)

Maybe you could be mistakristineman
but come to think of it that suits me better than it does you.

Tomorrow I get to go and play with trains in their natural habitat, the depot. Having to get up at 6 for this is not really sweetening the deal...

how'd the interview go????

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:25, Reply)

Shite - the written part was absolutely no problem, but they asked me all the wrong questions
when I got in there and some of my answers made them go o.O

I'll get it if all the other applicants die, I think.

aww fuckers

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:47, Reply)

I know :( apparently it was harder deliberately to ensure they headhunt the best...

( Maladicta, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:59, Reply)

That can be... arranged
I'm just saying. You've got "friends".
( The Light in Chains don't touch the Pope's boner, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:48, Reply)

Ooo.
Could you bump off Stalker Girl while you're at it, do you think?
( Maladicta, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:57, Reply)

Easier
An overdose would come as no surprise to anyone. *sinisters*
( The Light in Chains don't touch the Pope's boner, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 21:08, Reply)

I wouldn't lose all hope just yet.
Sometimes, they may make the process look deliberately hard. You may be led to thinking you didn't get the job, when in fact, you could end up getting it. Maybe they deliberately asked the wrong questions and are more interested in what you got right. Or the other applicants were crap.
( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:52, Reply)

That's what they've done - they know I can write letters, they know I can do emails
and they know I can do it in French. Plus I had a splitting headache and felt very, very sick for most of the day...

Trains in their natural habitat.
I can just imagine a bunch of trains shunting around a siding ready to pounce on their prey. David Bellamy could film a wildlife documentary and hide behind a signal and use a passenger as bait to lure a wild train.
( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:41, Reply)

Or a Pokéball.
If you stun it first.
( Maladicta, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:45, Reply)

Enough about Trains....
...it's like being at work in here! Moar fluffieth pls.

I have been to the gym and stopped for a £3.50 carvery on the way home. My new genius plan to have a proper evening meal without carbs is to hit the carveries before 7pm (when they start charging evening prices).

My own not-so-genius plan is that I'm just accepting that winter weight-gain is inevitable, and so is the spring weight-loss.
( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 20:57, Reply)

Excellent stuff. I'd kill for some meat right now,
but can't get any shopping in till after pay day.

"I'd kill for some meat"
Surely you've just solved your own problem right there. I hear Soylent Green is very tasty.

( Maladicta, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 21:43, Reply)

Or...
You could just invest in some window coverings that offer some privacy... and stop getting on *her* bus...

.. and move out of stalker range... :-)

( HSDriver was probably still at work on, Wed 9 Dec 2009, 22:09, Reply)

Oh, you can't use that bus.
That's *my* bus.

But moving requires eeeeeeffoooooort!
