Another week gone by

OK, firstly, I'm posting this link:

Race For Life

My sister is running this for cancer research - most of my friends know what our family went through over the last 12 months (just reading her page has kinda choked me up) - as she says: "Cancer touches so many people.."

On a different note - my internet is down at home right now - I had to use dialup to get online and find out why. Seems my credit card was rejected :roll: . I just updated the card details (same details) and the payment went through...looking online now to see when my account is back up...

I love Fridays :lol: only half a day, then the whole weekend - and this weekend is a momentous one in the UK - the smoking ban starts on Sunday - no more smelling of smoke after a night in the pub (not that I drink a great deal... :neutral: )

What a weekend...yet again

I decided Friday as I wasn't meeting up with Hat that I'd 'do the town'. Arranged to meet Andy at 8.30 and came home to bath etc. When I turned up at his, he was in bed and not coming out :neutral:

Walked with his girlfriend to the Tudor where she works and had a beer in there, then went to the RAFA club and the Globe before meeting a mate and going to the New Inn, Shotz, Falcon and The Wrestlers - then came back to the Tudor (cheaper beer :wink: )

I was a little drunk by now but was talking to Lisa and decided we'd go back to Shotz. Off we went, skipping down the road hand in hand like two demented teletubbies. Halfway there, my phone rang - Hat was in town and where was I? she said she'd meet me in Shotz (she did), and the night got very surreal. I remember her moving stools about, there being just us (Lisa, Hat and me) as well as Dennis and Wendy from the Tudor in the place. I remember Shotz closing, but have a blank for about 15 minutes, then I was back at Hat's and we were making bacon sandwiches at 3am...VERY strange.

When we woke up Saturday, Hat decided that I could come along with her and her sister sightseeing, then onto Market Harborough clubbing (I'm not really a clubbing person...). The plan was to visit some castle somewhere...that was the plan :neutral:
what actually happened was they spent the afternoon shopping...at least some of it involved underwear so it wasn't so bad.

Market Harborough is a lovely town - loads of good pubs (nice women too :razz: ) and the club (Enigma) was great too - just before that closed, we (Hat, Guy, Louise and me) had a water fight which was great for cooling down. Good job Guy only lives about 100 yards from the club.

The job that's been put off so many times finally happened today - tightening and checking the 'runways' for the safety lines...and I'm not too keen on heights :???: I took a picture but forgot to bring in my bluetooth dongle to be able to upload it (I'll do it when I get home). The actual job didn;t go too bad - we quoted 2 men, 5 days and got 2 hangars done in 1 day (can't do the other hangar until September :lol: )

Another b3ta blog (I DO work sometimes...honestly)

Yet another classic QOTW entry:

Well, he eats things in alphabetical order. So if we were having sausage, egg, chips and beans; he would eat all the beans, then all the chips, the egg and finally the sausage.

I did confuse him once - is it Zucchini or courgette? He actually sat there for a while thinking about it!

I did also ask him about when he is on holiday, say in France/Spain, does he eat in alpha betical order in English or in the language of the country in which he is in?

It's a valid point if you ask me...

I tashte like Alcohol.


   Heh. Heh. I taste like beer. I like beer. Buy me a beer. I'm not drunk, I can drink plenty    without... What was I saying? Beer.

What Flavour Are You?

Just a quick one

It's certainly been a hectic week so far - last 2 days down in Bournemouth doing onsite testing at FR Aviation (awesome canteen :razz: ) - today off to the Paris air show :smile: only bad thing (well, sort of) about a day out like this is the fact I have to wear a shirt and trousers - no jeans and t shirt :neutral:

Oh well, such is life...

Still debating on uploading the video of me snoring...maybe I'll edit it a little first (nobody REALLY wants to see up my nose anyway)

General weirdness

You may recall me mentioning a work colleague's fetish for envelopes (that'd be Corina :wink: ). Well, checking my traffic stats this morning, I found that I'd got a hit from someone Googling 'envelope fetish' - look:

Oddly enough, My page comes in at number one for that search (try it yourself here).

I also mentioned before how my page looks different in Internet Explorer (never use it anyway) - have a look at a shot I took in both IE and Firefox.

Nothing more to say really other than the first game of the football season is Sunderland v Spurs - should be a good one. COYS!

YouTube

I was adding something to the b3ta QOTW and wanted to link to a small video so I uploaded it to YouTube.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3Rmwc9RO6s[/youtube]
Seems to be popular - 41 views (EDIT: now up to 115 views) and it's only been available for a day... :razz:

I'm debating uploading the video that was taken of me when I crashed out after a huge Sunday roast...in my defence the snoring is only that loud because the phone was practically up my nose :neutral:

Check this out.

Another week - still no football though

I'm hooked on b3ta.com (link on left) - the QOTW are hilarious. Here's a quote from the latest one:

This is a question reply Many years ago I touched my cat's special area
I was sat in our living room watching TV. The rest of my family was doing likewise.
Sam, my childhood pet, now much older came and sat by my chair and rubbed his head against my hand in theuniversal sign for 'give me attention and I may let you live.'
So, still watching the TV I began to rub his head and back. Clearly meeting with feline smoothing criteria Sam rolled over and let me rub his belly.
I must stress that I was watching TV, and only idly playing with the cat,honest.
After a minute I realised that Sam had a lump on his belly. Thinking that it must be cat cancer I quickly looked over to have a look.
Sam was lying on his back, legs spread wide, enjoying a nice little hand-job.
This was in full view of my Folks too.

Hmm...

*snigger*

Well, I thought it was funny - and voted to say so


Which File Extension are You?

Just a lazy Saturday

Having a lazy surf about before going down the pub, I wandered to TGND's page (link down on the left). He's running a poll - vampire or werewolf? cast your vote here.

Actually, his blog is the best place to keep abreast of my project: The Purebred Red Elastic Band Ball (By Appointment to HRH etc.)

How will I die?

Listening to the radio, the DJ was going on about a website - 'How Will I Die?' so I figured I'd try it out...

How Will I Die Quiz You will die at the age of 56 You will die of sexual exhaustion Find out how you will die at Quizopolis.com

So that's me with 17 years of (hopefully good) sex... :lol:

Same website - my smurf name:

Smurf Name Your Smurf Name is Vulgar Smurf Get Your Smurf Name at Quizopolis.com

Bored...

I hate Mondays :neutral:

On the bright side though, at least I've been busy so time is going by quickly...

Ever wondered how much your website/domain name is worth?

Apparently, my domain is worth $2656 according to LeapFish.com.

My blog is worth $1,129.08.
How much is your blog worth?

Did I mention that I'm bored?
