CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

Hi Socs, I dont do anything interesting....

I am a Project manager working on IT infrastructure projects for a large oil company (but I an self employed contractor), there told you it wasnt interesting. It might seem as though I travel a lot but its not that much really, this year has been more than normal, although I admit I do make and excessive number of trips to cloggyland.

I'm sure you are quite good at it and enjoy it really Spacie, you mustn't Shell yourself short!

Socs, how did you know I was short, and no I dont like it ;-) just waiting for my lottery number s to come up....

28lbs eh Jeffie.

:o)



I'll slice some chips.

Is it edible?

Watch out for Gordon, going to be a bit blustery.

Gordon? Is that Ramsay, Brown or hurricane? If it's blustery, my money's on Brown.

Ha Ha, hils, you never let me down. Thats my eldest son, he always outfishes me.

What you up to these days gal?

There is a new 'windfall' tax on any fish caught in the North Sea over 1lb. It is also subject to gift tax if given away and if not eaten landfill tax. If given away it will be treated as a potentially exempt transfer. If to be eaten it must be tested by the Dept of Agriculture and Fisheries (and the fee paid) for coliforms and other pollutants. If it passes it will be stamped as being fit for human consumption(stamp duty payable), but if it fails the owner will be responsible for its proper disposal as hazardous waste by a licensed waste disposal company at the owner's expense.

Thanks for that TIM ;-)

Just had the strange experience of watching the One Oclock news and seeing a friend of mine being interviewed about Solar B!

Good morning one and all, Socco up with the lark to take 'her-indoors' to catch a chara' to the big city. Not even light yet, be interesting to find out how (if) the lights on the old beamer work!

TIM
I find it difficult to believe that there are fish in the North Sea that weigh over a pound.

Morning Socs, not quiet so bright and early for me but I have been given my tasks for the day:
1) Get Haircut
2) Collect dry cleaning
3) Drive to Norwich - 178 Miles door to door
4) Cut mothers grass - Over 1 Acre !

Spacie
Call me lazy if you like but I would be looking at other solutions to your tasks.

1. Haircut, find a bright young thing who does home visit hairdressing.
2. Dry Cleaning - Consult yellow pages and find dry cleaner that collects/delivers.
3. Norwich - Hire helicopter & pilot.
4. Cut Grass - Rent grass out to sheep farmer.

Good morning
Looking forward to 2 weeks off before I start my new job. Feels stange leaving my old place after 14 years.
Where's the cook, I'd like tea and cake please

Sorry Jeffie - you know how it is can't get the staff ;>)
Tea and cake, on its way that's if you haven't left already!

I'm still here. I'm one of the idle for a couple of weeks, like yourself :-)

Idle?! I thought you were married! Expect to be fixing things, shopping re-decorating, gardening etc.

I remember the first time, a few months after we were married, that I told the wife that I was going to be on holiday. Half an hour later I asked her what she was doing with a clip board. She was going around the house making a list of things that she wanted done.

Idle...wot's that! ;>)
Of course should boredom set in JM and your wife not employ you as suggested by T-I-M there's always the odd thing to do round the coffee house, odd barrels to change etc ;>)

Hi folks, very late tonight so I shall head straight for the hammock. Lovely mug full of hot cocoa with a dash (or two) of rum in it.

Scrambled egg on toast please.

There you go Keaydian - enjoy :>)
