No doubt he hates the policy 10 times as much as Mantis.

I'm kinda torn. Part of me says to respect the guy who makes you sandwiches and don't give him pisch. Another part of me says fk him, if he doesn't like it he can get a better job.

I never give anybody shit & tbh I find the policy amusing. I just gave this kid some basic life coaching and tried to enpower him to think independently & to resist ridiculous corporate doctrine. I metaphorically put my arm around him and guided him back onto the righteous path, the path according to Mantis, the right path. When I went in today and asked for 2 of dem smartie cookies, same kid, wink wink, no nut advice & hey presto my work is done.

Thats because the smartie ones don't contain nuts ya wally

Yes Kev but they come from the same tray so contamination is likely. I've been through this with the kid already. He thought he was gonna catch me out as well. Dumb kid. I said to him Subway are taking precautions by warning us about the nuts in the nut cookies but are they going far enough? Warn us about the possibility of nuts in all foods. Kid was believing me as well but the manager sent him out the back to chop green peppers.

what's a lemo burger?

[George2Loose]

Pretty annoyed at myself for blowing a couple of decent opportunites. First DTD at the weekend and this morning the 530 hold em. 

For some reason I got my stack in, a gazillion big blinds with the bare straight draw against two pair. May as well have been playing a hyper turbo!!!!

I blame tiredness a little- playing 12 hours+ straight is pretty ridic. They should look at shorteneing day 1.

Hopefully I'll continue to learn from these errors in time to take down the EPO (sick field!)

This has been bugging me for a while but tonight it was too much.

I go to the gym almost every day and as part of this I go to body combat (kind of shadow boxing type thing) one or two nights a week. It has always tilted me seeing instructors wearing hand wraps or sparring mitts, I mean wtf do they think their hands need protecting from, the draft? Anyway went to a class tonight at a time I usually can't manage and about half the class were wearing sparring mitts, wtf is wrong with these people? Why does it tilt me so much? And what next, headguards? Gumshields? Dozy feckers IMO.

Calling it 5th year is enough to make you old.

Yeah think so, the year you take GCSE's.

Basically the system now includes the years you spend in primary school, think it is due to intoduction of the national curriculum.

[gatso]

so there's now 13 years right? these kids must be geniuses when they leave. it only takes 5 to be a doctor doesn't it?
