Only bonus is its in London so booked to go to Goodman's steak house again, and going to have the wagyu beef tonight, can't wait.
That sounds so much more interesting than the course I'm doing in Perth at the mo' a Blade. I'm doing Health and Safety Rep training (4 days) with NOPSEMA (national offshore petroleum safety and environmental management association) so rivetting |-)

Good news is I've got ex She'll workmates working over here that I'm catching up with most nights.

Gotta love changing time zones by three hours just after coming off nights too. Thank God gor earplugs and sleeping tablets.
You think you guys got it bad, I'm at Edinburgh Uni for an 8 hour workshop on future Scottish district heat network regulation!
Ok floppy hat man, you win! (lol)

Was in Bury St Edmunds, had some good meetings and got an impromptu meeting with the Pre-construction director who was happy with the service the guys were getting from me. Always nice to hear :) Made the sh1t drive down the M11 a little more bearable. Man I hate that road, dual carriageway for miles and full of lorries going at 51 miles an hour over taking another one at 50!!!!!!

Suffered through day three of the course, due to a hangover and lack of sleep.

A catch up with a mate ended up in an all night bender and chickenstrips

Wondering why the spare wheel on our pick-up is padlocked to the vehicle, but there's no sign of a key for it anywhere! (facepalm)

And yes, I only found out because we have a flat tyre/tire (delete depending on correct use of English)!

I have been reading a lot of posts tonight, and can see there seems to be a fair amount of negativity floating around. I am sure it is down to the time of year and being almost at an end, and its been a pretty busy and tough year for many, and for many reasons, so I am not surprised.

So tonight I have been listening to my new - old, (ha ha) Album... Pink Floyd - Endless River. I have to say if I was not chilled before I am now lol.
Excellent - excellent album. Headphones on, sounds flat out and in a good place.

I would suggest you get yourself a copy and have a listen. 8) AND FECKING CHILL (angel) :*
I have also had a few of these (beer) , so will check what I have written in the morning just in case (bandit) :D

Frankie - have you got the division bell? I've heard mixed reviews of the endless river as its bits that didn't make it into division bell.

I might ask for it for Chrimbo.

Yes I have, and yes the music is a mix of tracks that that never made it then, re worked, plus new, obviously in his same style. Worth a place on my cd rack.

Today I was on my way to Peterborough to gather info for a report, when I got a call requesting my presence in Coseley, so spent the rest of the day there. Funnily I wasn't offered any cake whilst there so am guessing the TS Midlands massive don't frequent that area. ;)

:@ Discovering that my ute has been crashed into some time recently.

Was just walking past it at home and noticed the bullbar was slightly off square. Closer inspection and it looks like some one had hit it, hard enough to dent the bar tubing and bend all the chassis brackets. The bar is all jambed up around the body work.

If you'd hit it like that you would known about it, f**king wankers.

We've just had some sad news at work. Someone we worked with has lost her battle with cancer.

A good time to reflect on what's really important in life.
