    Speaking of black appendages, my ex-broken toe is no longer black, it only took 6 months.

        Cheers nor.

        Have informed mrs p that she's most likely walking the pooch then taking me to A & E in the morning. But I reckon if I can fill my whole body with wine I'll be fine.

          Ahhhh, cheap lounge wine, nothing like it!

          If it's any consolation I have to take Mr N to the hospital at some ungodly hour tomorrow. He's so inconsiderate making me get up early.

            Some people don't get it. It's so rare to see someone say thank you after being served these days. It takes no effort but the rewards are invaluable.

              Right. Off to the gate. Full speed my good man and don't spare the horses.


              I might be a dribbling mess by the time I get home.

                Safe flight and try not to break any more limbs on the way home!

The nice lady that normally checks peoples boarding passes saw me pathetically limping in and has sat me down and brought me a glass of vino. Sometimes it pays to be the please and thank you guy rather than the do you know how many airmiles I have one.
                    Good for you!

                      Home before six!

                      I think that's the best run I've ever managed on this gig. Out of ClientCorp at a little after half four. I was out of the car park by just after quarter to five, and arriving home an hour later. Not bad going at all.

                      Oh, and there was an F-reg Escort on the Fosse Way, just behind me when he joined, then overtook, but couldn't get far ahead after that until the next major junction. So for about ten miles, it was like a little late-1980s Ford convoy was travelling down there

                      First accident I've seen this week/year: looked like an extremely minor scrape on the A606, in the other direction. That side becomes two narrow lanes there to allow stuff to turn right at a junction, so I reckon one of them judged their width wrongly and scraped the other - there didn't seem to be any damage to front or back of either of them, and they were talking things over as I went past.

                      Still haven't got the Toyota back; it's taking ages for the new tank to be delivered
