There's a bloke in my office who had an excuse of cough on Monday took yesterday off, is in today, and keeps putting on and taking off a jumper in a vain attempt to gain sympathy from the rest of the staff, by proclaiming loudly that he feels a fever coming on. He is known lovingly as "sicknote" by those who know him well.

People coming into work when they are quite obviously sick. How self-importantly obsessed with the urgency of your job do you have to be to put other people?s health at risk? My health is more important than anyone?s job (bar perhaps a paramedic or midwife or something along those lines). I will never understand how the suited millions have this deluded sense of their own importance.

Blimey Jah, there's a blast from the past. Good player, unfortunately spent more time on the treatment table than on the pitch. Where is he now? I remember he was always known as a luxury player.

He's Bournemouth Captain, and he'll only be 36 next month, so not too old to play a bit at that level.


Aaaanyway, I've had enough of the crappy heating/air con in my office!!!!!!!!!!!! It's a fecking germ farm in here, and they have sealed all the bloody windows, I feel like I'm working in a plane.

If it's any consolation, my office is exactly the same!! And I've had enough of it, butthe I'd rather be in a job than out of one so I'm making the best of what I've got, and it ain't easy!!

poxy office work, management roles mostly, boring as feck but that, and owning/running my own businesses is all I know, the only trouble is I don't currently have enough dosh to open a business, which is far more rewarding.

... returned post with huge stickers over the address - how the hell is one meant to remove the person from the database when you don't know who they are! I'm aint no fooking mind reader! (6) soz I hurt my finger trying to peel the stickers off and am now grrr :-$

    • Just for information: I see that the Licensing Sub-committee has the Tesco application as item 1 on their 24 July meeting agenda.  https://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/ieListDocuments.aspx?CId=172&MId=8329. The officer's report to the committtee provides a good succinct summary.  I see, from (original) p.31 of the full public pack, (or more conveniently the supporting documents) that Tesco Legal Dept on 12 June reported that they'd agreed with the police's suggested conditions to be attached to the licence, and the police accordingly withdrew their own representation.  That leaves just one representation, from a member of the public, to be dealt with on the day. I still think it's not necessarily to be presumed that Tesco will definitely be taking over the premises.  I see that Poundland themselves were granted an off-sales licence on 21 Feb 2023, and surrendered it on 3 July 2025.  I'm not sure they actually ever used it themselves.  Did they? https://www.southwark.gov.uk/sites/default/files/2024-09/Statement of Licensing Policy 2021-2026.pdf is a full statement of the policy and its application, for thems as is interested.
    • I'm now just following David Peckham around, posting laughing emojis on all his comments.   
    • Well, quite. Do you know where your lad's going tonight?
    • I'd get rid of duty free shopping.  Nothing to do with tourist tax but something I hate.  All that glitz as you try to get through to Wetherspoons in the departure lounge.  No great savings over on line or even at times supermarkets, and the hypocrisy of selling cheap cancer sticks. Ok back to tourist tax
