Do Fife derbies even count? They're all related.

There is nothing wrong with Paul Hartley

Quick update from me. My subconscious plan to work myself to death continues apace. I am at it all day, evenings, weekends, the lot. The wife is still off with her compressed nerve, and because of this has started noticing it more. She asked me the other day if I ever switched off. My mate at work, who had a candid word with me last year, has had another one, telling me outright that i am en route for a collapse. I have taken the piss and shared stories in the past, but David (aka The Prof) spoke to me at the end of last week. Literally came into my office, shut the door and told me that i cannot take on any more. He's been around a long time and seen colleagues do what I am doing. He said something striking - "the university doesn't love you back, no matter what you give it". It's all linked with my grieving process. I made it past my old man's birthday, father's day, Christmas all fine. New Year was unreal, awful. The anniversary of his death is coming up and for some reason I am dreading it. On the plus side, I was offered another role to take on last week and said no. I need to change but can't seem to get off this accelerating spiral.

Listen to the wind blow, down comes the night Running in the shadows, damn your love, damn your lies Break the silence, damn the dark, damn the light

In the Eagles song One Of These Nights, the original lyrics were "I've been searching for the daughter of the devil himself I've been searching for the daughter of God" The record company refused to release that, so "the daughter of God" was changed to "an angel in white"

That worked, Cheers!

This is what I see Where do I click to put it back to normal?

I accidentally clicked the moon and am now stuck in dark mode. Cannot find the moon to put it back to normal.

Thanks for unblocking that in my mind. Jeeeez those episodes were dire.

Assuming "carry on" is a euphemism.

Sure, sure. If you want to end up in the beast thread.

I had a Best Woman, my sister.

Budget day special! Holiday let owners slam Jeremy Hunt's Budget tax raid on Airbnbs: Landlords and second home owners say scrapping of £300m tax breaks for 70,000 rental properties is a 'disaster' for the tourism industry 'Freezing fuel duty won't make any difference': Motorists brand extension of 5p cut as 'irrelevant' because prices at the pump are still too high due to rising cost of oil And then the "other team" Families say 2p National Insurance cut gives them 'breathing room'

You work at the same place as me?

I went to the cinema to see that movie. Utter pish.

I hate to say it but I have no clue about where these places are. I know they are up north, but that's it. They could be next to each other, they could be miles and miles apart.

Just move to the central belt. Problem solved.

Rumours that Jos was trying to pump the female employee, and is raging that Horner, er, horned in.

Some are worth it. The world at war was 26 episodes.
