    Let's face it, we both know you're going to get binned of this contract soon enough so you might as well enjoy the city you're in whilst it lasts.


    Actually true. This is a fill in gig.

    Hopefully get a gig closer to home after my interview on Monday.

      Here's me sat on my iPad, like a sad loner swilling beer like it's going out of fashion.

      This is NOT good!

      Not a total loner as I know all the bar staff now really well, and we can now communicate by "knowing look" from afar.

      That "knowing look" is a look of exasperation along the lines of "Oh Keeeerist it is that sad little f**k again"

      HTH
      Oh you're so right. Without actually being here, you've managed to understand the hopelessness of the situation fully, and without any evidence.

        My plan B's an iPad breathalyser that stops you posting when you're pissed.

              I still am the young me. Just my body isn't paying attention. I find that as you get old, dealing with people and life in general become easier because you've had more practice. I've stopped caring what other people think.

              I know I'm super smashing great. And dated.

                  I think I prefer the current me. It helps that I've kept my hair, shape, and still feel 27 inside.
