Finished the decorating. Licking wounds from conceding late goal at spuds looking forward to day off wishing I could be at the Oval to see Hants tomorrow enjoying some interesting music.
Well done on the nags, Pet. Nice to see the bookies money heading towards good causes !I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

Had an excellent Guineas weekend having made a nice £110 profit from Saturday's Newmarket races. Just off to look at my wish list...

No big win for me this weekend, alas. The poor weather resulted in too many non-runners taken out at the last minute.
Monday morning looms again already. I have a new boss starting tomorrow but have Tuesday off to meet up with friends so should be an interesting week what with York races as well.

I try to ignore them and do the actual job, while they faff around promoting each other and grabbing all the money and reorganising structures...
Back to that tomorrow morning.
More bad news is that all my Myaskovsky CDs are stranded at the garage in my poorly motor. Still "Absence"...etc.I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

Originally posted by Petrushka View PostThis is pretty much my philosophy as well. This particular one is a big contrast to my previous boss. For one thing, she's female and, moreover, damn near half my age! When I started work she wasn't even born! The Peter Principle is followed in our company as a rule (isn't it always?) so it could be interesting.
