You know what? If you don't like it, go on the internet and complain.
Four months left, only need to do another 50 hours’ overtime to break last year’s earnings PB. If they have me in on Dec 25/26 that drops by half.
Rostering won’t know what’s hit ‘em in 2027 when the mortgage is paid off. They’ll be lucky if I do 4 days a week then…

Only the true grafters were up and at it at 0530 today. Lovely crisp Sunday morning, clear as a bell. Love this job so much I’m knocking off at 2 then going back to it 12 hours later. It’s deffo that and not the 12 hours OT I’m getting paid on top to cover someone who’s gone sick. Nope.

No, I don’t go any more and doubt I’ll ever go again either unless it’s a corporate freebie. Manchester is always a goer though, especially if the sun’s out…although it does depend on the trains cos like fuck I’m getting a bus.

Ah well, ne’er to worry. However, when the weather turns, I will endeavour to find time for a jar anyway.

You never told ‘the tale’ of that, although that’s probably because it’s for telling in person rather than on the internet. If I ever get round to having a pint with you again, I shall insist on finally hearing it.

I’m impressed that a Leeds boozer has views of the M602 tbh.

I reckon that must be a piss easy jib. Was at a bar right outside a couple of years ago when Chic were on and I could have dead easy just wandered in and nobody would have noticed.
Might try it next summer.

Halcyon days. Could almost write a book on her United days. Obv the ‘blind man incident’ would have to be the final chapter…

Out and back in 23 and a half hours, with about 4 hours on the piss in the city and a bus full of lads asking who the fuck did I know in Milan that I wasn’t stopping to drink with them. I only knew about 6 of them ffs! Trainers destroyed in them fucking bogs in the San Siro. Mint but near killed me.

It’s one of life’s certainties. Isn’t ever going to happen, not even if they expand it to 64 teams. I’m sure Hamish knows what I was getting at…

As long as you have digs booked they just check your coupon matches the passport photo and wave you in. There *could* be issues in a World Cup if you get beyond the group stages and can’t be sure where you’ll be for the knock out games, but, well, you know…

View from Manchester Road, looking down Kiln Hill. Was in Slawit having a few pints on Sunday afternoon. Cricket season nearly upon us, sadly the club are ruining the summer for me by taking San Miguel off and replacing it with Krony. Livid.

It must have still been holding meetings in the mid-late 1970s, cos my dad took me to one there, think he wanted to see if we’d enjoy it before he took us to Odsal to watch proper stock car racing.

He has. And he’s a stone dead ringer for a [white] bloke I occasionally work with.
