See, I could do that, but it's so hard to organise something in an open plan office with so many people listening; and generally someone always lets something slip along the way.

I could always do something a couple of days before or after.

[Yudster]

When I left my last job I was quite happy to got for the leaving drinks because I liked most of the people I worked with, I just couldn't stand the job. You both sound as though that's not really the case for you.

No, the people are lovely - but I've been here 10 years, and so much of what I used to love about it has been destroyed by the new management, it's just very sad really. So I would rather not have a fuss made - I'll only end up getting upset.

[ALFIE]

Smiling today due to Euro 2008.

Like many I was gutted not to see my teams (England/ Scotland) make the finals.

But I must admit I am quite enjoy seeing other teams knocked out! (ooh, just as I write France are out!) 'Evil Laugh!'

[Bruvva]

This is making me chuckle, it's a cheap jibe but, by god, it's a good un.

[Yudster]

But Bruvva. you adore and worship Will Smith don't you? He is your favourite actor ever you said, and you want to have his babies!

[Bruvva]

Now you're just being silly Yuds.

[Bonanzoid]

That said, that Hancock film looks pretty funny. Reckon I'll go see it.

[Yudster]

I still haven't seen Iron Man. Apropos of nothing.

[MK Chris]

I quite liked Iron Man.

[Yudster]

I have been told it is absolutely brilliant by somoene who had to be dragged to see it because he can't stand superhero movies. If he reckons its good, it must be brilliant.

[Sunny So Cal]

I was told the same thing twice yesterday. However, I'd just stepped out from taking my boy to see "Don't Mess with the Zohan" and my wallet felt raped enough.

[timp]

I loved Iron Man.

[S4B]

Having a really good visit from my Regional and Divisional managers who both said that I am amazing!!

[Console]

I have been told it is absolutely brilliant by somoene who had to be dragged to see it because he can't stand superhero movies. If he reckons its good, it must be brilliant.

It was very good, certainly one of the best comic-book films to date. The new Hulk film was good too, although probably wouldn't appeal quite as much to someone who can't stand super-hero movies.

[Zoot]

Yea I really enjoyed Iron Man. Haven't seen Hulk yet, but I've heard its a very good 'Bad' film.
I'm really really looking forward to Wall-e however...

The following photo of a cake made by a friend for her friend's birthday is making me not so much smile as drool:

According to the caption:

Mrs B saw her first male catheterization yesterday, the patients name ?

Mr Peacock !


Hillaweous

[Yudster]

I had to read that twice before it registered that you said "catheterisation". It could have been so much worse.

[Ezza]

I finished school today!! I'm going to stop with my lovely boyfriend for a few days and I just got back from clothes shopping. Happy days!

[catherine]

I had a dream about Console last night, haha, and he was drunk! And i was sober! And Jamie Oliver wouldn't give me a cloth to clean up the pint he dropped but the police came and took him home. I hope you learnt your lesson Console, i really do.

[catherine]

Oh and Roy might be on Grand Designs, that's making me smile too because Yudster is going to be sooo jealous!

[Bonanzoid]

Yea I really enjoyed Iron Man. Haven't seen Hulk yet, but I've heard its a very good 'Bad' film.
I'm really really looking forward to Wall-e however...

It'd be shite without Edward Norton. He's a fantastic actor.

[DevilsDuck]

Making me smile is knowing that I have made my mind up about moving back to Devon

Thats right

I have even told work that im going to be leaving towards the end of August!

im so excited

Sams going home!!!

[rustybike]

I got to play with a big, red, long thing today that squirted white stuff!

Yes, that's right, I went on my fire marshall training today and it was so much fun!
Not only did I get to miss a whole morning of work, I got to play with actual (controlled) fire and e extinguishers. Plus! I got a cool jacket agt the end with "Fire Marshall" on the back and I got a certificate! I'm so cool!

[MK Chris]

I did that a few weeks ago, it was alright. I've always been a bit of a pyromaniac anyway.

Isn't sending you on a fire marshall course a bit pointless, given that you're leaving the company? Have you not handed your notice in yet?
