    Wall to wall horse racing, and the tedium hasn't even started yet.

    I'm also very annoyed my home made chips stuck to the bottom of the tray and bashing the **** out of them in anger strangely didn't make it all better, only create a mash/chip hybrid.
    Buy a tray by Prestige, they are the business, nothing sticks to it, not dear either.

    Chips cooked in the oven :mad:

    I should be out running now, but I'm not.

    I come in for 8am so I can leave at 4.30pm. Then some fecker organises a meeting for 5pm. Which will last an hour.

    You don't see me setting meetings for 8am do you?

    Litterbugs. Absolutely drive me mad. I passed a car last night at the O2 with parent dropping young wans to the Beyoncé concert. The mother in the passenger seat opened her window to throw a lucozade bottle out onto the road. Fc*kin scumbag beyatch. Another carful on the way back, except this time it was a large cardboard box.
    And runners aren't immune to it either. I remember seeing a number of gel packs on the ground while doing the Run The Line in the mountains and also in the forest during Donadea 50k. Who do these scummers expect to pick up after them ?

    No, they certainly aren't.
    Even during races I tend to put used gel wrappers in my short pocket or the small pocket on my gel belt.

    From what I've seen a number of times many cyclist also have no problem with littering, esp when they get flat tyres. Just leaving the punctured tube on the road or fecking it into the ditch.

    I don't understand people littering their country like this, drives me mad :(

    'Dress up' day in school - 2nd week in a row - ffs it's hard enough to get three of them out the door & myself out to work without adding that into the mix - day's work done before I leave the house. Last week was a character from a book to celebrate world book day, today it's a character from Irish history but the worst ever went like this: 'The children will dress up on Friday - the theme is water' :mad:

    If you were smart about it, you should have dressed them as James Joyce each time.
    What in water did Bloom, waterlover, drawer of water, watercarrier, returning to the range, admire?

    Its universality: its democratic equality and constancy to its nature in seeking its own level: its vastness in the ocean of Mercator's projection: its unplumbed profundity in the Sundam trench of the Pacific exceeding 8000 fathoms

    I think I might have had a little trouble explaining that one to a 7 year old who wanted to be Pippi Longstocking but was stressing that her hair was not quite the same colour as that on the illustration. :)

    Dress up days when you have three kids to decorate and are also a teacher. Only so many days I can take dressed up like an idiot!
