In school it was crap the last two years. Basically one big stab in the back fest, and being reminded by dickheads that I will struggle to get a decent career. I've done alright.
I'm in, I do a good job, then I leave. On the 15th they pay me money and I spend it doing stuff I like. Last time I went to the Christmas do was 2004 when I was in my early 20s. The boss did this big countdown in front of the doors before allowing us in - I just turned away and walked back to the station and got a train home. :hehe:

Last week I noticed myself being conscious of people in old films and TV shows being too close to one another. I hope that goes away.
Yeah I found myself clocking things on Tv with people hanging out etc thinking that looks strange, not good really.......even seeing old football matches in packed grounds

I work for the local authority, construction, i've got about 3 managers, i don't answer the phone when the call, don't reply to their E mails or go to meetings and book jobs in for myself even when it needs another pair of hands. It works very well for me!

I had a boss who used to watch cricket when working from home. He'd just come online at lunch and tea. I said to him "Look, I don't mind that you do it, it's the hypocrisy I hate". :hehe:

I went to one Christmas do before that, and one guy was having a right go at a manager. I asked him why he doesn't say this when he's sober and in the office. I only went because there was a girl there who had just had her clit pierced and said she would show me when she was drunk. She did to be fair.

I missed a school friends wedding to watch City at Sheff U. Didn't bother RSVP and he was not happy. I was though, even though we lost 2-1. Harris scored I think. They're divorced now. :hehe:

There's this bloke on youtube who is travelling the coast of the UK in a 1980's speed boat, stopping off along the way. Absolutely brilliant, he takes a different person on each leg of the journey. The filming is fantastic. Harry Dwyer is his name, better than anything i've seen on TV.

Weddings, go on far to long in this country. Someone on here said that in Vietnam they last about 2 hours, food an' all. Sounds perfect!

Have to agree with that, especially as I don't drink anymore. The free wine made it bearable 🤣

1. A less f*cked up world.
2. As said above, wages which reflect the job done by those who have been on the frontline over the past ten months.
3. Less me,me,me and more we,we,we.
4. Another one mentioned already, more opportunities for people to work from home if they want to.
5. On a personal level, a return of “proper” sport.

The reason it's so long since I had one is that I don't drink at home. so home brewing would be rather pointless. So I'll just have to wait. I'll survive. lol
