Ha! I thought you might be the first to reply to that. :)

Or order online from PIzza Hut.

Celebrities. Useless cretins. The instant gratification, me-me-me culture.

I just buy them ready made. Lazy, I know.

Perhaps some appropriate rebranding is needed. And then just sit back and make a packet by franchising it out. Powerlates? Manlates? SuperManlyerciseGrawr! Pilates Homme...

You can still get those fabric things to tie onto normal chairs. We have one and it's great. Definitely recommended.

Looking doubtful for me. That's Mrs Ant's last weekend before returning to work (boo!) so we'll probably be going out somewhere to mark the occasion.

The council will take them with your garden waste recycling, or you can take them yourself to designated sites. There's more info on the Southwark Council website.

Ouch! Hope you get well soon. My worst new year ever was spent listlessly hoovering a foreign hotel while my colleagues partied around me. I quit the job very soon after.

I think I would like to focus on being more mellow, but I won't make into a big resolution or anything - that'd just put too much pressure on.

LEFT! STOP! GO RIGHT! RIGHT! NO, LEFT! Ah happy days.

Yeah, cookwank definitely wins.

...gurgle.

Go out during your lunch break, buy some glitter and glue, and get customising. (I shall resist the temptation to finish that statement with girl-friend and a wag of the finger.)

Just you wait till the sleep deprivation kicks in, Keef. ;)

Boyish good looks? Keef, you're such a charmer. :)

Blimey - what have I missed here? A bit confused by the Michael J Fox link, tho it's not necessarily a bad one. Am I Marty McFly?

Yeah, good luck!

I'll be one of the late-arriving crowd, as I'm going to a work do first. Free drinks too, so I'll already be completely pissed full of the joys of Christmas when I arrive.

Not so sure, wasn't it already well underway when they did the Palmerston?

Our windows don't open and they make even the sunniest day look gloomy. Grr!

There are three vents almost directly above my desk. One is for a building-wide system, one is for a system for this floor only. No one seems to know what the other one is. The cold, dry air blasts down at me all day long and is so bad that my left arm and hand, which get the blast full-on, are considerably colder than my right. Sometimes if I'm using my mouse for a long time my left hand even seizes up a bit from the cold. I'm forever getting up and turning off the one aircon vent that we can control. Why it's deemed necessary to have it on at all in the depths of winter is totally beyond me.

Am getting excited now. :)

Well don't just moan about it, *Bob*, do something about it. Direct action, man. Make with the quality hoax!
