I just ate a banana at my desk. There is a small bin beside me but I didn't want to dump the banana skin in there, so instead, I flung it towards the slightly bigger bin about 5 or 6 metres away to my side (and with my left hand!), and it dropped right in. 😎

It's the little things that make life worth living… 😄

I couldn’t spell hemmoraging, like a bleedin’ eejit.

the mother is flying out tomorrow to visit her sister who is in care in the UK last 4 months. Worried about the condition she’ll be in….but prob more immediately panicked about being stuck in a metal tube for 80 minutes in pretty shîtty weather but I checked the forecast and if the plane goes in and around on time there will be decent lull in the bad weather and it won’t be too bad. Reassured her I think. That’s if the plane is on time. Fingers crossed🤞

Met somebody earlier, conversation started by the other person with a loud, oh my god, I haven't seen you in at least five years! Had a five minute chat and caught up on all that was new with her and me.

TH that I managed to do that when even now, I have absolutely no idea who she was.

I never recognise anyone, I'm a disaster.

Sometimes it helps if I imagine them with a completely different hairstyle.

a quiet afternoon and evening ahead which is exactly what I need, think if weather permits take a walk to the far shops, pick up some drinks and snacks and hit my games console for a couple of hours….👽

Sometimes it’s nice to spend a few hours in a people free zone just to unwind doing something you enjoy 😎

Hold My Hand

I complimented the off licence guy on his friendliness as I purchased my vino. I love good customer service. As I was leaving he said that I had made his weekend ☺️

That’s just so lovely for both of you (my friend works in an off licence in)

Nephew aged 9 (very sensible for his age) was at an open day for a secondary school. He took these notes while the teacher was talking.

Good cooking - Prize thing for being good - good grades - cool trips

I definitely wasn’t like him at his age.

Sunday evening and a courier arrives with my stuff. Thought that the SMS that came earlier was a mistake confirming delivery today but nope. One item was a new phone case. Spent a bit more cash and went for a decent genuine leather one, as the one I bought when I got the phone only a few months ago literally fell apart. I’m impressed, it’s great quality.

Went over to see the parents on Sunday. Watched “Rebel Education” with the auld fella, a long retired teacher. Now in his third decade out of the teaching profession.

It was funny listening to him (normally a man of few words) suddenly regale me with untold stories of his teaching career.

And watch his frustration at students on the TV programme not sitting properly at their desk, talking, or not wearing proper uniform.

His stories ranged from the endearing :

“I simplified my class one time because one fella was really struggling. Then looked out for his result specifically, he passed got a D”

To the ridiculous:

“There was a girl who said to me, my brother got a C+ in this class, if I don’t get a C it is your fault!”

Then the auld fella randomly reminisces “She smelled that one”.

Me: What?

AF: She didn’t wash right, I think.

Me: What did you do Dad?

AF: Ah I told one of the wimmin teachers, let her solve it, Home Economics or something…

found my missing phone, It fell out of my pocket in the car this morning, didn’t feel or hear it drop. Also it inexplicably ended up under the car seat. I looked everywhere and was convinced I’d lost it whilst out. Whatever about the money replacing it but all the hassle involved in reinstalling apps, cancelling number, and whatever other fûckery involved but nope. I have it back… 😮‍💨 😎

TH that I ordered oil for the house at 9.50am today and the delivery guy has already been and gone 😃

Thinking of applying for a job. There's a former colleague who used to work at the company. Haven't seen him in at least a few years. He randomly walks into the lab because there's a talk at work he's interested in. Completely random.
