Because Denzel is still on one, and you're in the tens of thousands. He thought his worth mentioning

Why was it a success Mr Pete?
I demand satisfaction!

I've just finished a project that was deemed to be an "Amazing Success" and it was delivered 11 months late and £2.5 million over budget...

p.s. The delay was nothing to do with my part of the project

You get up in the morning. One get up, no fall downs.
Then every time you fall down, you get up. Equal numbers of get ups and fall downs.
Total, one more get up than fall down.


Using that logic, what about the times you sit down during the day and then get up, you’d be racking up those get ups which would then far outnumber the number of fall downs which makes the saying even more silly. Surely the “get ups” in the saying is in reference to those as a result of a “fall down”, but whichever way you look at it it’s daft.

Everything went according to plan, we had three shops to hit in a certain order and things to buy in each. Each was visited in its turn and the required items were purchased. We had an excellent time and the whole thing was brought in just slightly under budget and in the anticipated timeframe. No unpleasantness was experienced in any way shape or form. Just fun, fun, fun the whole way

Trip into the old office today. Just to clear the desk, a few personal items to be brought home, quite a bit of stuff for the shredder, but nothing, nothing at all to be transferred to the new office. Said my goodbyes to a few old friends and that was that. Bye bye Irlam it was good to know you.

Not too bad at all tonight, one extra set added rather than go up in weight as that seemed the safer option.
Aaron was with us tonight, he of the medicine ball fame, so of course the first question was

"why did you leave it outside the front door where people could fall over it ?"

And the answer -

"So that I would see it on the way out and remember to take it home"

"Did you see it ?"

"No"

"Did you take it home ?"

"No"

"Well wasn't that a roaring f**king success then ?"

Damn blast and set fire to it as my old mother used to say, the tank emptied completely and suddenly about half way up on the fifth. Shame that

I have had to cancel my usual Sunday as signs have appeared all around saying roads are closed. No times are given as that would be helpful. Hey ho that's life. I will remember the dead of many wars from my couch.

Tesco on the way home where they have promised an extra five hundred clubcard points if I buy new underpants or socks before December. That will be difficult to resist :-)

Greenhalgh's pies have gone up in price. Still highly delicious but a sad day.

Maybe I really can't afford to retire ?

This morning around 11:05 jut as I was settling in for an Inspector Morse, a crown fell off my tooth. I only have the one (crown, not tooth) and it never seems to loosen. It is either attached, fast or unattached. Fortunately it doesn't hurt but it does mean that I shall have to start ringing the dentist tomorrow morning and probably have to pay a small fortune to have it re-cemented Unhappy Unhappy Unhappy Unhappy Unhappy Unhappy Unhappy

So far, so good

Quiet night, not many down. Chippy was open on the way home.
We now have a full complement of LED lights. They use about a third of the power as the ones they have replaced and they are brighter. Good move that, well done us.

Dentist this afternoon, almost totally painless but not entirely pleasant, crown is now re-cemented back in, soft food for the rest of today, sensible tomorrow and then business as usual. And I got change out of £24, not much change but I got it.
