There's a Wings song called Jet. Should'v been called Shit. Shit! Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo Shit! Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

Who is definitely NOT gay. Honest

Most of the Wings stuff was shite. I bet he used to come up with that sort of crap all the time in the Beatles, and Lennon would just smash him in the face and send him back to work.

I dunno. I think unlike her, the story has legs. Apparently Mccartney was singing 'we can work it out' down the phone to her when she fucked off to India. I feel sorry for the bloke. Love of his life and mother to his kids dies of cancer, then he falls head over heels with this machiavellian pneumatic sex-machine who is just after his cash. I don't think he signed a pre-nup. Ah well, at least he can afford it. He wrote Mull of Kintyre and the Frog Chorus. I don't feel that sorry for him.

They're a classy bunch. No doubt they'll be down Lidl on Saturday haggling over the price of shiny toilet paper....

The very thought of it

Older than I was expecting. They'll need an XXXL coffin. RIP.

Maybe he hasn't been troubled by a mountain of offers. I can't think why. More interest in him than Alan Smith though.

West Ham hoy oots. Please Lucifer not Carlton Cole as well.

They seem to be quite an ageing side, I thought. Most of them are 30+ aren't they? Could probably do with a bit of yoof. Aye, end of an era. It was on the radio the other night btw and, despite them being no. 1 the current side (iirc) haven't won in Australia, South Africa and it was 1993 or something the last time they won in Sri Lanka. They've had a long winter prior to this summer too like and remind me a bit of the way we looked going into the last World Cup. A lot of their big guns haven't performed, especially Harbajan and they've really missed Sehwag. They have looked jaded. One thing that struck me watching the last test was how bad the fielding was. You can put that down to lack of organisation, motivation or whatever but I think a lot of it is down to old stagers who've done it all before & who are fucked off with and tired from being out in the field for ages. I think that carried over into the batting. England used to be exactly the same in the days of Lamb, Botham, Gatting, etc. All unfit old timers who couldn't cart their arse round the pitch. These days England are very fit, focussed and up for it - they learned that from the Aussies. The older players like Pietersen and Strauss are in very good shape but there's also a healthy number of sub 30 players.

Striker, goalie, LB, RB, CB. In fact everywhere but midfield. Until Barton goes and we need a RW too. Oh lummee.

Just don't get caught doing it

Mosman is a rather posh suburb, new money, so chances are they were to busy giggling like little girls that she had breasts to even think about checking them! Those breasts need checking iyam. Checking carefully. If they've neglected this duty they're not doing their jobs properly.

No doubt there was an in depth examination of the device. Probably required a specialist to feel his way around the device for nipples and concealed touch sensitive triggers. Those brave brave men.

The man speaks the truth. Yes. Ambition costs money which we're not prepared to spend. The funds are needed elsewhere.

The guy I'm dealing with is in charge of over 100 people, it's understandable that he didn't notice my case. The failing was with the guy who was directly above me and he's no longer my direct report, the new fella I have is much better. But aye, after 12 months I would have more money but I'm guessing the inherent problems would still be there. The question is whether the money would be enough to compensate for that. But what price can you put on the value of life? I don't necessarily hate the job but the situation i.e. working away from home on a full time basis. And that won't change. 90% convinced I'm going to continue with my resignation. Do you have another job lined up ewerk? Because if not, one option would be to try the new role for 6 months to see if it works out. If not you can still walk away. In my experience once someone's decided to go, it rarely works if you offer them a shitload of money to stay. Usually the issues are around their enjoyment of the job, not feeling valued, not liking who they work for etc, which don't change. However if they've offered you a completely new role in a different area, that might change the game. If your fundamental issue is working away from home, then obviously that will always be an issue wherever you are, unless you move home. Just read that back, not sure it helps at all

There goes another 2 weeks' wages then....

Reflecting on the turn of events, it seems to me that Liverpool and Enrique/his agent had this stitched up last season, as confirmed by Phil Thompson. His general huffiness, lack of form, refusal to discuss contracts etc and then the tweets imo all confirm that. If anything I think the club have been staring Liverpool down, in the hope they can jack up the price. On his side, I bet Enrique and his agent have been trying to force their hand, culminating in the recent tweets. The whole thing stinks imo. The sad thing is, although it seems utterly obvious he was always going to leave, the club won't have anyone lined up. They'll faxing their "top targets" on 31 August and working through their "hit list" and be told to fuck off.

A lad I worked with on the Med had a 24 hr bender and ended up pulling a tourist lass. We were just getting up when we saw him dash out of his tent at 7am, running kind of awkwardly and holding his hands away from himself. After a quick visit to the shower block, back he came, ducked back into his tent, then seconds later we hear him shouting at the poor lass " You filthy cow! Look at the mess, get out you skank" ( or words to that effect). That night we quizzed him, he'd woken up, realised he'd shit the bed, saw this lass comatose next to him so rolled her in it and hoyed a bit round her stinker. A quick shower, back in to bed , then woke her up outraged at the mess " she" had made of his bed. Once we'd stopped laughing we all agreed he was an utter twat. The poor woman is probably still in counselling. "It's never happened before, I can't remember a thing. Now I'm afraid to go to sleep at night."

There's a lot to be said for being happy to get up and go to work though. When you say professionally, do you mean it'll put you in better stead for promotions to higher paid jobs that you still hate getting up for? Tough decision, cos there's no guarantee that you'll enjoy the alternative, but honestly it's worth giving some consideration to the fact that you're gonna have to do another 40 years of this shit, and try to steer a course towards something you might enjoy. Wish I'd thought more about that rather than the immediate reward of more money or whatever. Well that's the problem I'm trying to work out, would I still be happy? I've had good projects and bad during my time but what I've been offered is the chance to work on more challenging projects and the opportunity to 'develop'. In the short term there would be more money in staying where I am but in the long term it isn't something I want to be doing. So it's a case of either stay for the short term gain in a job I don't really want to do or join an SME with less money in the ST but a chance to earn substantially more and potentially have overall control in the future. I'm leaning towards the latter. I think one question to ask yourself is why they're only shown an interest in you after you've put your resignation in. And whether the things that piss you off now will still piss you off in six to 12 months time when the novelty of the extra money etc's worn off. Change is healthy imo. However it's up to you to decide what's best for you, obviously.
