Busy days…
I love being busy at work – the time flies by 🙂 Only thing is though, I don’t have the time to pop out for food so I’m STARVING! dinnertime methinks…

Just let me say now: I’m fed up with being the mediator, the guy who gets between twats with issues – FUCK YOU ALL! Bollocks to the lot of you – next time I’m gonna stand back and let it go. YOU’RE ALL A BUNCH OF BACK-STABBING CUNTS… I had a great day today until I went back to the Tudor. I’m not going in there again. Job done, find another twat to do what I did. I don’t get paid for it, I don’t deserve the shit…fuck you all very much and goodbye.

So, off to Stansted early Thursday morning to catch a flight to Prestwick. Did my usual thing of stopping at the 24 hours garage before setting off and checked the oil, water, tyre pressures etc. (this does become relevant), then drove to Stansted, parked up in the long stay and jumped on the flight. Arriving at Prestwick, I was surprised nobody met me off the flight as usually happens (I don’t have a security pass, so cannot go airside). I wandered up to the information desk (doubles as security) and asked if they had a number for the Ryanair hangar, […]
Read MoreThe ‘security loop’*
So, picture the scene: you’re sat at home nomming on some tasty food, sipping a delicious beverage when the phone rings (most likely landline as no-one seems to call my mobile anymore 🙁 ). You pickup and get some phonemonkey asking for security details before they can discuss your account. I find it hilarious to bring out the following routine: Me: “How do I know you’re who you say you are?” Phonemonkey: “Well, we have your phone number and know your name.” Me:”Um…so does half of the subcontinent of India it seems at times.” Phonemonkey:”Ok, well, verify your secret password […]
Read MoreJust about recovered from the weekend…
A 3 day bender after going about 9 months without really going out – yes, I missed work on Monday, but I’m fine now. Anyway, it was time I checked out the new Wetherspoon‘s pub in town – it’s on the site of the old Post Office, and it’s HUGE. Did you notice the name? “The Weeping Ash”. It took about 3 seconds for it to be irrevocably renamed locally as “The Weeping Gash”. But the food is cheap and good 🙂 and despite what I’d heard about the (lack of) service, I was impressed. Of course, it’s taken away […]
Read Moresnee – computer whisperer
It’s that time of the month again…no, I’m not bleeding or anything – I mean Microshite just released the monthly updates 🙂 I love it…I can guarantee 4 out of 10 computers will have issues with the updates, and who do people call? who is the only one in town who can talk them through problems over the phone? That’d be me – and I’m not blowing my own trumpet (too much) here – there’s a reason my mates refer to me as ‘The Matrix’, I have this sixth sense when it comes to sick computers – my brother has […]
Read MoreBusy, busy, busy…
Since we got back to work after the break, it’s been non-stop with testing here and there. Halfway through the month and I’ve still to go to Prestwick (that’ll be next Thursday), then off to Skavsta (Sweden) the following week. After those 2, I should have a bit of a break (by break, I mean be office bound for a month or so). Just had an email regarding the schedule: Drive to Prestwick?! OMG – 800 miles round trip with a shitload of work in between? um, I think I’ll fly thanks 😉 Last time I was in Skavsta, it […]
Read MoreDear ITV,
As the winners of the TV companies to televise the FA Cup, may I just give my feelings: For the whole weekend, you showed 4 games, leaving us supporters to surf the net looking for live coverage of our team’s games – fuck you very much for that. The FA Cup is THE MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL CUP GAMES IN ENGLISH FOOTBALL – A COMPETITION WHERE A NON-LEAGUE TEAM CAN WIN A PRESTIGIOUS CUP AGAINST TOP FLIGHT TEAMS. I guarantee there is not a single supporter in England who is disgusted at your ‘coverage’. You bunch of total wankers – […]
