stanski Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 Sorry small rant on its way! 1. Some joker was letting fireworks off after midnight last night 2. Parked up for dentists appointment this morning - putting money in to meter and was 5p short of the extra time I needed - pressed the green go button accidentally so paid extra for nowt! 3. Dentist normally really good with injections (i,e I dont really feel them) not this morning....OoooooooooooooooCH I flinched like a baby! Bonus ball - Work messed up overtime payments and not paid any! I am well short of my 9million hours from last month which means I will have to eat dry bread with a light dusting of strawberry flavoured sawdust Quote

marzman Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 I had an operation on my back a month ago and am still working from home as a result. On my first day working from home i took my laptop out in the garden and sat in a recliner with my shirt off. I was there all day and got properly burnt all over - except for a rectangle on my stomach where my laptop was!!!! Quote
