wuvvum Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I work on the third floor of a crap office block in Slough.It's quite hard to work when there's some sort of hawk blezzing around outside the window, and even harder to work when it takes out a pigeon right in front of you.And that's when someone isn't putting your stapler in jelly. timolloyd, Eddie Honda, RobT and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Unfortunately I work with a load of miserable bastards who would not find that funny, despite the Slough reference. I really want to get some jelly and set that up, but no. It would be frowned upon. Sometimes I feel some sort of attachment to the pigeon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loserone Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Hey Boll, why not get a few live mealworms and let em reproduce? You can get a little 'system' going quite cheaply, we feed ours on the dust at the bottom of cereal boxes mostly. Bit of apple peel, porridge / flour spillages in the the kitchen etc. Never ending supply of tasty bird (chicken in our case) treats. They do wriggle a bit mind.

Datsuncog Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Looking through old family pics last night and this one made me grin. Looks like both Santa and my cousin have had enough of the whole Christmas malarkey. To keep it shiteworthy, here's my uncle grinning at his choice of Volvo Amazon 123GT. He swapped it for the first in a succession of ever-flashier Jaaaaaaaags. Banger Kenny, Skizzer, Rusty_Rocket and 13 others 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkNWeigh Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Just spent the last hour snapping off torx bits that are the right size but too small drive , doing the pads on the Volvo. No warning light and they went metal to metal on Christmas Eve, luckily Euros were open till 12 even luckier they supplied the right ones- a Christmas Miracle!Did a job at 06.00 this morning and managed a 200 mile return trip to Gatwick only braking about 6 times, anyway, wrong thread you might think.No, this is the least stressful hour I've had this Christmas, 14 people staying, you'd be grinning if you could sit on the drive for an hour too.

chodweaver Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 @bubCW Junior #1 tells me he has often had to wedge the tray door up slightly (with cardboard) to get the disk to read, and they fuck up less if the unit is only used horizontally. Did it scratch up the disk? And he's just told me he has a 360 available, gratis, but it'll have no hard drive in it. Is this any use? It can either be posted or I can bring it home with me from his place on Friday and arrange to get it on to you shortly after. PM me to arrange.

willswitchengage Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Don't ask why it's in snapchat-o-vision but I found this abandoned car earlier which some local prankster thought would look better with a dose of Christmas decorations.

xtriple Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 My son came here on Christmas eve, decided to get us a Chinese meal (very festive) and rather than ring up, used his phone and ordered everything over the internet, gave my address to him, he paid and we waited. And waited... And waited. He finally realised he'd sent £40 of Chinese nosh to his house (200 miles away) where no one is currently residing! Not really a grin, but I couldn't help but titter a bit... he did see the funny side thankfully. puddlethumper, privatewire, cobblers and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
