    You know how you can negate your carbon footprint by giving money to someone who says they will plant a tree?

    I'd like to make an offer to anyone that would like someone to have a drink for someone else:

    I have an advance stock of about 25,000 pints that I have already consumed for no good reason.

    Please feel free to help yourself to some of these ready-made, unused, available, pre-drunk, toast-free drinks.

    You can't have tonight's though. Tonight's are, as sort of requested, dedicated to all those people who see or saw their job as paying invoices efficiently, such as Michael in HR.

    Cheers!

    I just like the sound of Ronnie Rocked Raucously...

    I am in an aliteration mood.

    started a topic Raise a glass

    Raise a glass

    There's a chap at the client site to whom I send invoices, for a project which I do 2-3 days a month. He checks them, prints them out, authorises them and sends them to accounts.

    I sent him my invoice this month, only to discover that he died a few weeks ago - quite young, early 40s. I spoke to him a few times, and he was quite a personable chap. His foremost quality though, as far as I am concerned, is that he got me paid on time with no fuss.

    So, I raise a virtual glass to Michael. Even though he worked in HR.

    Cheers
Working...
