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 :-$

    • I can't answer your question. But on them generally: it's changed hands in the last year or so, I think. I paid £35 for interior and exterior and they did a crap job. I'll go to the one on Herne Hill (or just do it myself if health allows) next time.
    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
