Re: What are you doing today ??

Sat in work, which is somewhat unexpected, got a call from work today asking me to cover the shift tonight, 12 hrs overtime, that'll pay for some new bits for the ZED, happy days :D

I remember the Stanley Baxter show and Bless this house...oh and Dick Emery (giggle)
