I've just started down the same road, had three days off in the last quarter and felt like a naughty schoolboy.

I'm watching the world darts on the telly, and there's a lady from Russia competing which is a first.

Sid Waddell after Anastasia throws some magic darts - "Without wanting to be sexist that's the sort of leg that Batty Grable would be proud of!"

The man's a god.

Most blatant attempt to advertise the firm I just started working for with my first post

This thread disturbs me whenever I see it in the list. Wasn't it just Viz, not The Viz? My OCD's playing up a bit.

I had this last week and on a Saturday, if you follow their "leave it three hours rule", you have a slot of about an hour to go collect your stuff - thanks for deciding my diary!

Anyway, off I trotted and happened to suggest to the fellah in the post office that I was in at the time and maybe the postman hadn't actually knocked and didn't have my parcel and ran away as discussed... Not impressed.

If they don't prevent things can we assume you'll continue to commit the same offence in the future?

Did you deliberately break the rule at the junction?

Unless you did some might say you were fined ?120 for driving along not paying attention to signs which are posted on clearly at the junction. If this is your usual level of observation then you would apear to well on the way to becoming a dangerous driver. I hope the fine makes you pay a bit more attention from now on and has therefore prevented a serious potential future accident.

(Tongue maybe a bit in cheek there)

Gets better the more of it you read..

What a bizarre thread.

- Whoosh.

- Hurrah!

- But it's a chain...

I think I covered most of the bases there.

Whilst researching my response to this post (ooh, get me) I found the following gem on Wikipedia -

Rawls appeared in a segment of the first season of Sesame Street, to sing the alphabet. He dismissed the concept of using cue cards for the performance, but reversed such decision when he forgot the order of the letters.[3]

That is all.

And I might be wrong.

Anyway. Evenin' all.
