    Thank god it's friday
    I have to say
    for my head does ache
    and my hands still shake
    for last night I regret
    but I can't forget
    how p*ssed I got
    missing the chance
    to sh&g Sally from Finance

    Did them the world of good, one's working in research at a Uni in America, another is an officer in the Army, and another still is doing really quite well in the City.

    When the fish follow the trawler,
    The sardines are caught
    In the
    Net.
    The fool tastes
    the mackerel
    but
    the wise
    man does
    Not.

    When reading the prose of the Sage
    The foolish laugh out loud
    But the wise
    Will understand
