I am very happy - but I'd probably be a little bit happier if I could stop waking up at 5:45 every morning

The voice of Nature loudly cries,
And many a message from the skies,
That something in us never dies.

[EternalOptimist]

when my lad was 4 I took him over to the North east for a suprise helicopter ride. When he saw the helicopter I could see the tears running down his little face.
I asked him if he was scared of the noise. no.
I asked him if he was scared of flying. no.
I asked him why he was crying.
Dad, he said, I am smile-crying.

Thats you Sally. so happy you could cry

I'll probably be so p1ssed I'm being sick by that point! Yay!!!

Yeah, but I had my Friday night last night... If you're ever in Ipswich, try Trongs for a chinese... very nice!

I'll still be trying NOT to be sick by that time after the vast amount of red wine consumed last night.... urgh!

well my father died after at the end of july. after a 5 year, toe to toe slugfest with cancer that ultimately consumed him. the taxman has got his claws into the business he left behind. the bailiffs are banging on the door demanding 100,000 in back tax. the stess button has been turned up so much it has twisted off in my mothers hand.

after 6 months on the bench i have got this cutting edge niche oracle role working alongside the oracle experts and will be sorted for the 5 to 8 years based on this working out. rate is reasonable but will become truly bloated as we pull out of recession.

Oh DS Sorry to hear that about yor Dad, and the stress it has brought with it
Cancer is a tw^t - it seems to have become stronger and more lethal in the last year or so 5/10 years ago, everyone who had it seemed to fight it off! Now, everyone seems to be dying of it again

Good news on the Oracle gig - although everything above puts it in perspective eh?

[SallyAnne]

No I worked in an EU department & they brought in all these Greek guys because they were cheaper basically. C'est la vie!

Crate of Mendip Magic later on & i?ll be as right as rain! Have a nice weekend. I'm off

Sorry to hear about this though Wurzel - I hope you manage to get something else soon x x
(Enjoy the Mendip)

Thanks Clarky,

Shirts are off all over Newcastle today, as a mini heatwave has struck accross the North East of England.
Temperatures have soared to 80's, and a breeze can hardly be felt throughout most of County Durham and the Sunderland area.

A spokesman from the Newcastle Tourist Board said "Aye - wa'r expectin a canny crowd doon the toon the neet like. People'll be monged aal ouwa thi bigg market n keyside by aboot 6 like, due ti the wetha."

Civil Servants all accross the region have already packed up their desks for the week, and local publicans are recording record takings for September!

Back to the studio!

v. impressed!
