DEBT AND NONCE-FREE THREAD RIGHT HERE.
Tell me something that you're planning to do in the near future. Something interesting that doesn't involve my my mum, your fucking nommy lunch or this weekend.
If I do not deem your reply interesting enough I will force you to go to a two-week long football match with Darth and Bobby, both speeding their tits off on crystal meth and feeling 'really chatty'.

Why do people ask you what you want for your wedding, and when you tell them "whatever, just something not for the house, as we have everything twice, and we don't have a house now, so no place to put it, and something not heavy, as I have to carry it myself, and here you have my wedding list, if you want to use it" they decide to buy you 5kg of glasses?

I'd recommend directing said pouting at the First Great Western train company
They charge obscenely unreasonable prices to get between London and the West of England. I would hope that a well-organised mass pout outside their head offices might encourage them to recitfy this.

Hmm...clearly I've just had bad experiences when I've had to travel to Reading with them.
(Worst of all, at the end of the outbound journey I find myself in fucking Reading...)
Edit: Hang on, I've been retarded as usual. Just remembered that Brum would, of course, be serviced by Virgin trains, not FGW. *spangs self duly*

I am planning to rip apart my media centre and put in 4tb of storage
replacing the meagre 450gb
Feel free to deem my reply uninteresting, my weekends have become very boring since becoming a husband and father. I also may be building an integrated wardrobe and drawers in the nursery ready for baby 2. I have no DIY skills. I should document the disaster it most likely will be.

Why not just put the 4Tb on an external drive or RAID array and save the ripping?

...so I can work on a festive 'piece' to hang from the conservatory beams. It is going to be made of cut up chicken wire, tinsel and fibre optic lights, spray-painted and moulded into a 1.5 metre 'angel-type' shape.
Very excited about this.

OK, it's a long story with precious little pay-off, so bear with me.
I replaced my letterbox a little while ago. It fits really fucking horribly and lets a god-awful draught in. Didn't really matter until this week when the temperature plunged well below Baltic levels. So I went out after work to buy some sealant and fucking coated the letterbox with it. Yes, yes, I know what you're going to say "applying external sealant at night at this time of year? Are you MAD?". No, just cold. I'll reapply it in summer if it doesn't take properly, which it won't.
I was in such a rush to do that last night before my fingers froze right off that I left the interior light on in my car. Got up this morning. Dead battery. The misss works nights, so I had to walk down to meet her as her route home follows the road where a girl got raped recently. Very cold. Then nobody was around to boost me and I don't have Home Start on my AA membership. Then I couldn't remove the battery to take dowen to my local autofactors (to take advantage of their 12 hour "borrow a battery whilst we charge yours" offer because I don't have a 14 mill socket to remove the plate holding the battery down. Got a 13 and a 15, naturally. Of course, I only found this out once I'd disconnected both terminals and removed most of the stiff-as-fuck plastic surrounds.
In the end I had to get the Mum to call the AA out on her policy.
Edit: Oh, and I got sealant on my work trousers.
What a twat, eh?

bake something - possibly a Christmas Cake while listening to the radio these activities will be interrupted by regular coffee and cigarette breaks, finished off with a sit down a read of a book/newspaper.
However, fistly I have to do the laundry, read the electricity and gas meters, hang up the wet laundry, iron dry clothes, give the house a general tidy up and hover, change the bedding and towels, wash the bedding and towels, hang up bedding and towels, cook dinner/lunch/breakfast/lunch again/dinner again, then make lunches for Monday I must forget to do the washing up. Start sorting what has to be packed for the visit to partner's parents for Christmas (lots to take and it is long way).
Monday I get to go back to work.
