The local chinese buffet, I think.

the Kite on Mill Street Johnney? Near the station? Or is there another one?

I didn't realise there were different CATegories of catnap!

because last year's ended up being a bit of a damp squib.

I was reading somewhere how somebody described something as being "a damp squid". Surely for a squid being damp is a very good thing!

Unless it is a SPACE SQUID, of course.

The mild green hairy lipped squid.

I'm not sure Mark, I think it's down the botley road somewhere? I guess that would be near the station. noen of us have been there before, is it nice?

I'm having a TomCatnap in honour of the dead cartoonist.

(CJ, I don't know whether to laugh or cry)

surely that would be a Top Cat Nap???

yes, down the Botley Road. Very close to the Westgate Hotel. Standard Greene King fare pubwise, although I've never eaten there. Interesting choice.

What's That?

"A stamp Quid"

Has the Wetgate Hotel lost any more letters since last I looked?

I smoked my second cigarette. Last night, after a bit of a fight, I had one and it tasted FANTASTIC. Today less so, thankfully, due to another headache. So I guess I'll remain a non-smoker. Or a VERY casual smoker.

they've found replacements, Marcello.

Now there's sleeping on a railway line, which got that bloke 6 months...

and there's moving a sofabed on!

Get off my thread, Marcello. I'm serious. You are not welcome here, and you know it. Any further posting will be considered an act of aggression.

Freaking HR department. I've said already I am not signing any contract that does not have my flexitime written into it. Got the contract this morning. No flexitime. I'm considering going on strike until I get a proper contract.

And my mum has given herself food poisoning. Eating dodgy sausages at dodgy takeaways that I told her not to go to. Sigh.

Give the guy a chance, he hasn't said anything remotely offensive.

Never thought that yr mother would go to dodgy takeaways. Still, hope she gets over it soon.

― MarkH (MarkH), Tuesday, 19 December 2006 10:24 (seventeen years ago) link

No, I'm sorry, given the history between us, he's not getting any more chances from me.

I'm in a fucking fowl mood now. Been teetering on the edge of it, but headache, sinus congestion, hacking cough and the cold I had last week has just decided to settle and make my life a misery. :-(

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 19 December 2006 10:26 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I'm here like a little shower of shit to darken all your days.

In the interests of balance:

I have been signed off work for a week with a viral infection. Boo. (not that I want to go into work, but I would kind of like to be paid since I am temping, the office is shut for two weeks, then I'm only back three days before I go on holiday. This pretty much equates to three days pay to last me a month. Just as well I haven't wasted lots of money on Christmas presents, eh?

Argh, that's awful, Ailsa. Viral infections are teh suck. Do you have no holiday time acrued? I remember I built up some, even when I was a temp. At least you can stay home in bed and get some rest and maybe get well.

I feel like I have to just keep going until I collapse. :-(

Quick! Cheer Kaet up!

*gis for pointy noses*
