Ferkin day.. I've had enough of it

The plan was, to get to the Nissan garage for 8, pick up a courtesy pimplemobile and get to work for 9.. but no...

I dunno WTF was the deal with traffic in Blazingstroke this morning, but I got to the garage at 8:50 - and that particular visit only served to remind me that I hadn't taken my driving license with me (having switched to one of those big assed 2 part licenses which don't fit in yer wallet)..

So, back home, pickup license.. get petrol, as I've used about 4 gallons skirting the Basingstoke perimeter trying to find a non-gridlocked way in for the past hour.. upset a lot of Basingstoke drivers in the process ( get out the ferkin way!!!!!!!) but bollocks to them anyway..

The poxy Nissan garage then tell me that the pimple car has to be back by 5.30 (yeah right...), whereas it used to be 6, but 6.30 was okay.. it ain't gonna happen. Never told me any of it on the phone when I booked.. Tossers.

So, having been re-acquainted with the motoring bowel cancer that is the Micra I'm underway and eventually got to the office by 10 only to find that my security card had detatched itself from my belt clip at some stage during this morning's franctic-ness...

Getting into our building without a card engenders being singed in by a manager (a la 'what time do you call this').. balls.. and then I have to get about a ream of paper signed to get temporary cards... and there's no-one here who can sign them.. all out of the office..

I'm hoping that the card is in my car, because otherwise, there'll be a Spanish Inquisition before I can get a replacement card...

Feck arse balls and bugger..

(Yes - I know .. other people, bigger problems.. blah blah.. my blood pressure is at a 6 month high.. just needed to vent.. I'm going for some breakfast and a lie down now.. )

Puts pedantic head on

that would be 'singed' as in slightly burnt, as opposed to sung (past tense)?

More bored than you
