Tell us something really trivial about your life (Catch 22)

[Justayellowbadge]

1. This is the word of Richard of Surbiton.
2. And it shall come to pass in the last days that the mountain of trivia shall be established in the Lord’s house and shall be exalted from the hills, and all the nations shall flow unto it.
3. And many people shall go and say, Come Ye, and let us go up to the mountain of Trivia, to the house of Dicky, and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths, for out of Trivia shall go forth the law.
4. O house of Dicky, Come Ye and walk in the light of the Trivia.
5. The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the trivia alone shall be exalted on that day.
6. And he shall speak unto the peoples, and the peoples will attend to him, and rejoice as he sayeth ‘How DARE you?’

are you implying Hairbrakes is some kind of Messiah?

Dodgy hair, strongly believed to be fictional, and most want to see him nailed to a tree.

You may be on to something.

Good luck JAYB, BA job or PM, what sector you going into

Bit more on the techy side, a little systems integration project, for an etailer.

[Justayellowbadge]

Chim said:

Techy side is good, business side can get a bit dull after a while. Hopefully a few extensions along the way if its good. Market is going a bit nuts at the moment though, seems to be a lot of projects coming on line

I'll bear that in mind 😉

Should be a fairly discrete chunk of work, can't see more than 2 months out of it.

It's at times like these I like to put in a word for the Knopfler Straits' soundtrack of Local Hero. What a whizzo musical experience it is. And, in addition, it's attached to one of the all-time greatest films of all time.

Rare, this:

Dicky you worry too much! No one has said anything insensitive(yet!), and to be honest if you can insult me in normal conversation I'll be fairly impressed! I'm the very easygoing type.

My friends treat me like they always did, that is constantly taking the piss. One of them got me a t-shirt for Christmas that says 'I don't really enjoy running'. Good banter.

Do the wonderful occupants of TT ever get together for a drink or three? I think Dicky is certainly not so far from me but I don't know about other members...

That's how you roll.

"Enter your P.I.N number" winds me up. You know P.I.N is an acronym right?

Makes me lol out loud.

Mr Roper said:

Not happened for a while now but I used to have a recurring dream..

I'd be behind the bar on my hands and knees trying to fix the cooler/pump etc. The pub is absolutely bouncing with people.

Not very strange so far?

Thing is..I'm fixing the cooler in plain sight of all the punters in nothing but a tight white vest which does nothing to hide my arse/knob. So with one hand I'm fixing the cooler and the other trying to pull the vest over my bits. Nobody seems to notice.

You are in denial.

Hth.

Mr Roper said:

That was my first thought but I'm genuinely not interested in men.

You're telling me. You don't write, you don't call, you wouldn't come to the clinic with me.

I feel used.

Never mind, chap. Plenty more fish in the sea.

Something something, haddock nuff of it, something something, better plaice, something something.

Couple in the corner of the pub just now. Quite a nice pub, I should stress.

She was clearly wrecked, was asleep in her chair, boyfriend looking mortified.

He managed to wake her, suggesting they should go as she was a little over refreshed.

She took it not well.

Threw a glass of wine at him.

Still in the glass.

Followed by the ice bucket, replete with contents.

He left.

She went back to sleep.

Staff had a quiet word, she took off ring, threw on floor and departed.

Happy valentines, all.
