WWsD? (thanks Whabbs)

    So, everyone’s seen those rubber/plastic bracelets to show concern for whatever is currently ‘cool’*. Based on this: Plus the fact I’m in between doing work-related stuff (honestly!), I looked into it here. Hmm…82p ($1.33) each??? and minimum order 100??? Having said that, there’s a colour chart here – personally, I think PMS1405 is closest to my original ‘monkey-shit brownβ„’’ πŸ™‚ *This doesn’t mean I consider myself ‘cool’, or ‘down with the kids’ Ok, while I’ve got your attention – if you’ve got a wireless network, does it still have it’s default name (not a good idea – makes it easier […]

    *Sigh* my back is hurting and I don’t have any pills at work, looks like I’ll be onsite in 2 different locations later this week, so I’ve gotta get it back to normal before then.

    Paddy’s day…

    Well, my head feels like someone stomped on it repeatedly, so it must have been good… Notice how I’d positioned myself right in front of the Guinness pump? my usual ‘seat’ is down the bar in the bar hatch (unwritten rule is you have to be able to do ‘dips’ with one hand either side of the hatch and your legs out straight to stand there – no fucker else can do it, so it’s MY place πŸ˜‰ )
