  1. 55 quid a ticket for that gig at the castle tonight. Jessie J is "performing", they should have hauled some random busker off of rose street instead. More talent probably, and less fake attitude.
  2. After a decent week, we get fog and rain today. At least the plants are getting watered I suppose.
  3. Chicken fajitas tonight, washed down with a few bottles of real ale. I'd eat fajitas every night of the week quite gladly.
  4. Around 15 minutes. And i've since found out that we could have had the stuff ready beforehand. My assistant manager, who took the payment earlier in the day, was told by the customer that he would be in later to collect the stuff. But he forgot to tell us that...
  5. I don't think I'm the one struggling to take anything in here old bean. The fact is, the guy showed a lack of respect to us by coming in at such a daft time. And on that note, I think I'll just leave the "argument" at that.
  6. We had pretty much locked up, that's the thing! All the shutters were down and locked, apart from the one which we use to go out, but surely the fact that the main big shutter was down should have Been an indication that we were just closing. I don't feel guilty about going into a shop at that time - purely because I wouldn't do it. It's nice for people to show a bit of sense and common decencey, the folk inside have been working all day and just want to get home, not having to put up with ignorant fuckwits like that who don't even the savvy or courtesy to get down earlier or at least phone ahead.
  7. Counterbalance. We do have one of these, but while it is handy, it has no sideshift, and the turning circle of mark yardley. And I haven't watched neighbours since channel 5 nicked it.
  8. Aye, but when I moaned before about folk coming in 15 minute before we shut, I was in the wrong, but 4 minutes? Come on!
  9. You've got yourself into a right pickle there.
  10. Customer comes into work at 16.56 pm (FOUR FUCKIN minutes before we shut) for stuff which he knew fine well we would have to dig out with the forklift. I had the nerve, according to him to shake my head and mutter under my breath (what does he expect me to do when he comes in at that time, cartwheels??), he then storms into the office telling my boss that me and my work colleague are "torn face c***s") and he would be back on Monday for a refund. The boss then told him that if he phoned the depot beforehand we would have the stuff ready for him no problem, as long as he gave us plenty notice. But no, according to him he was within his rights to come In as it was ONLY 4 minutes before we shut.
  11. If they pay me in Swedish meatballs, I'd be chuffed.
  12. Well, not really all of it, there was a lot of sawing done tonight.
  13. Getting there. Just the sanding down, treating, and the nailing together to do.
  14. The before pic. Pallets will need sanded down and painted. Its going to be hard work, but im looking forward to the challenge, and the finished product.
  15. I've got some old pallets from work which I am going to make into a set of chairs and a table. Will post the before and after pics.
  16. The wife has done this to my beloved shed.
  17. According to todays FFP, murray has held talks with danny galbraith.
  18. More work today. Got the shed for nowt off gumtree, was a pain to put together, but I'm pleased with it.
  19. Made use of some old deck boards that were gathered away at work.
