My Week

After a great weekend seeing April and my bestest friends (see tosh thread) I come back to my new job afresh and full of optimism for a great week.

Its now tuesday and for a total of 2 working days now I have not spoken to anyone about anything. Not a word. Brilliant.

So im sat here alone again at my pc, with a sandwich after watching everyone ask each other to lunch. I guess I just have to ask myself am I happy. I guess not, this is tedious to say the least. I did have 1 freind here, a girl called Sarah who used to escape with me for a cig break during my first week. But after a few caustic remarks form her colleauges about spending "too much time with new guy" she now barely says hello. So Im yet again on my own. haha Its so bad that Im actually looking for helpdesk calls so i can go visit people lol, but alas there be none.

So this, MSN and a few mails have been my only outporuing of my personality in work time over the past couple of weeks. As you can prob tell feel more than a little depressed right now especially after having made such great friends at messagelabs.

Anyways, Emma is out with her new friends from her work tonight, so i guess this will become an action packed day of saying nothing to anyone. Guess I will go home and just stay in my room haha no point in doing any thing else. maybe dust of the old xbox, at least I can shout shout some abuse at american geeks.

AV

As I was booting my laptop IS had updated our Anti-Virus software and it automatically got updated to my machine, which is not a bad thing, unless you are in my team. i dont usually have AV software on my lappy due to the fact i work with malware all day and i have lots my machine (hahaha at the mo it is running through my adware folder and catching over 2000 instances) each virus sends a notification to IS. So hopefully it will be removed - i asked nicly earlier on.

My Weekend

Friday night Yvettes pal was over so me and ben went round to Drews and Jays (james was there too) and watched a manly film.............wallace and grommit! :D it is funny tho. then I went home ben went to saras. I was nicly reading on the couch when i got a call from Yvette who was having a meal with her aforementioned pal - asking if i could drive her home..............to glosser! Toshs taxi was back.
had a relativly early night as i had a cup game the next morning, if we won the game our team would get to the final of the cup.

So i picked jay and drew up and they complained as it was cold but sunny, and i had my roof down. poofs. they game was a nightmare, gale force winds. we were attacking against the wind in the 1st half, but went 1-0 up after a great goal by our top scorer drew. they equalised about 15mins later from a long ball which i was going to header away being the full back, but our goalie J (another J) said it was his ball but it bounce over him and into the goal. so 1-1 at 1/2 time.

The 2nd half seemed like it was going to be 1-1. after a barrage of corners from them in the 1st half due to the wind conditions we thought we could win it easily, but nothing was going our way. a draw wouldnt be good enough to win the group to get to the final. but then a low shot went in and there keeper stumbled it and we jay came in in buried it. 2-1 to us! :D. a few mins later they attacked but i got rid of the ball and helped one of there guys who had cramp. as i was doing that we scroed again! Jay for his 2nd - a low shot deflected into the back of the net. so it ended 3-1 to us and we ar ein the cup final - ya beauty.

I then rushed home to watch the hearts cup match on sky. we won 2-1 but wank game. Jay and James was round too so we played a new xbox game called black for a wee while till the Scotland V england rugger came on. Scotland won as you all know! WOO HOO! so a good day for me for sport.

Sat night Yvette and i went to the balti in glosser for Yvettes dads 50th. it was ok, wasnt that impressed.

Sunday proved to be a busy day too. Jay picked James up then came for my and Yvette at 9:30am! and we went to cardiff to meet Sparks, Emma and April (sparkys wee girl) we went bowling. the 2nd game of bowling james and i started dossing - james spinning it and me using right arm instead of left. but we were still over 100 in points. April who is 10 was having a blinder, so james and i said we will let her win. make her happy, but competitive dad sparks wasnt having any of it and got a spare in the last bowl "i didnt mean it" aye right. harsh bastard.

After that we went to the furthest away pub to have sommit to eat and watch the welsh get twated. while that was on i went to quickly see my bruv who had just come back from a week in dubai where they had the worst rain for 60 years! arse. then we went home. Yvette and i just chilled and watched TV.

Last day at work before my hols!

Well tonight i'm heading up to London before my flight abroad tomorrow! I am hoping for lots of sun, though apparently it's only 20 degrees which isn't that great and it sounds like I might miss out on some snow here!

Did anyone ever take pictures of themselves outside of their work? I haven't managed to except some poorly edited version of that in paint...might keep that picture to myself!

Are you feeling better Tosh? Have you managed to shrink your head Jonno? How are you Ben? - you've not blogged in a while...

I'm John, I'm 27 and my dad is Mr Lee, drives me around in his MG...

Oh and its official, i've got a massive head - the passport office just rejected my passport re-newal based on the fact that my cranium is huge on the photo i supplied.

I need to slim my heeeeead, any tips?

(Apart from repeating my own suggestion which was to take my freakishly proportioned head and join the circus)

So...

I'm a bit behind on asking but did everyone have a good weekend and get up to anything exciting?

How is everyone getting on with the challenge this week - I think mine might involve a photo of work and some quality work in Paint to superimpose my face on it!!

This week is half term so it's very quiet at work but i'm off to Tenerife on Friday! Yay!

Three little ducks go into a Bar..............

"Say, what's your name?" the bartender asked the first duck.

"Huey," was the reply.

"How's your day been, Huey?"


"Great. Lovely day. Had a ball. Been in and out of puddles all day. What else could a duck want?" said Huey.

"Oh. That's nice," said the bartender. He turned to the second duck, "Hi,
and what's your name?"



"Dewey," came the answer from duck number two.

"So how's your day been, Dewey! ?" he asked.



"Great. Lovely day. I've had a ball too. Been in and out of puddles all day myself. What else could a duck want?"

The bartender turned to the third duck and said, "So, you must be Louie?"



"No," she said, batting her eyelashes.

"My name is Puddles."

Liverpool Match

Well Liverpool won which was good.

it was all Liverpool, Arsenal were crap. their keeper was the one who made the score more respectible. Liverpool need to sort out their strikers mind. Folwer played well but didnt have alot of room as he was being marked heavily.

On the downside i had to get there and back in a coach - got in at 1:30am :(

1/2 day today

I am on a 1/2 day today.

I am going to see Liverpool V Arsenal.

woo hoo :D


COME ON YOU REDMEN!

Quiz

Not only are my scores this month absolutely shocking I just realised i'm off on holiday on the 24th so I will miss 2 days of this month and 3 days of March so that will be two months I am out of the running of finishing near the top! Grrrrr, just like December!! Grrrrr!!!

The Weekend that was

Well this is what happened. Friday night stayed in at Sara's watched a film and went to sleep. Saturday walked home and watched some TV and had a cup of tea. More TV Tosh and Yvette got up and went out to the shops, I watched more TV until they came back and had Lunch. Afternoon dossing doing not much. In the evening we went over to Drew and Jays to play poker with James and the boys. £5 each in for the pot, Jay went out first, followed by Tosh then Me. Drew won the £25 (-£5 cause i have no change so i will have to give it to him next time i see him). Tosh and i had a curry there and Drew and Jay had cooked Chinese. Was a fun night, cause we were playing for money we were not going sliyy about the poker. Will have to do it again next month its a cheap night in.

Sunday went for lunch with Sara and her Dad, Leena and her Mum came down too. Sunday roasts are great. Watched the new simpsons and a film called "Must Love Dogs", crap chick flick, did not seem to have and pace just stumbled along. Stayed at Sara's came home this morning to get ready for work.

Thats the Lot

Gooooaaalllll !!!!!!!!!

I fogot to say last night i scored when we played football. You may think thats its nothing special, but since i normal play in goal and only this week decided not to for a change it made me happy.

I will go and see my mum cos she's been on holiday in Vietnam for the last 3 weeks so I will go and be envious of her tan and be shown hours of photos no doubt. Also need to buy a valentines present for the fella, am stuck for ideas so it's not looking good, thought I had a bit more time to think about it!!

So wahdya wanna know?

Little Benji reckons we are all dull does he - well lets see - in the past week I've had our puppy spayed, passed my BC drivers test - so I can now drive legally over here, got so irate at a customer service girl that she put the phone down on me and worked 4 hellish days at the local equivalent of B&Q - not bad, eh? I know I live in canada and should be regalling you with tales of bear chases, moose hunts and igloo building - but hey that was the week before!!!!!

James and i had a jacket potato with cheese beans and Garlic Butter. Lots of garlic butter. we stink.

james burped and burnt his eyebrows off.

i farted and blew a whole in my chair.

Complete Lack of Usage

It all seems a bit slow on the blogging front, have you all got nothing to say, have you not done anything for the last few weeks? Tosh kept us up to date daily with his NY activites. We all used to blog at least once a week, everyone used to blog on the comments of someones elses post. Even if its random whack it in a post.

Question of the Day?

Where are the wild cows? Were there ever any wild cows or is the reason for all the supposed alien cow mutilations due to the fact that aliens gave the cow to us? Wild Boar are the equals for domestic pigs, where is the wild bovine?

One of them is to delete memebers, so i thought i would get rid of bens 600 accounts - mostly a's and mostlry b's etc and all of his superhero accounts. what i didnt think it would do was delete the names in the standings! arse so now in june 05 it says i won but really ben did

I was going to call in sick and not bother with work to watch all five, but i have a meeting later so had to come in to work. I will be straight back on to the next threee when i get home. GO JACK GO

One month left

Well only one month to go and i will have won the quiz for a year, then i can retire and live happy. This will mean someone else will be able to win for a change.
