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 :-$

    • A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
