The satisfaction of telling an awkward client to fuck-off. Just being in a position to be able to do that is satisfying in itself.

Received a letter at work today signed by a Amar Shitole.

It raised a wry smile.

At my first office job we had some crackers. Ramaman Deep and Deep Banghard were the best. We also had a Robin Killin. Most gangster name ever!

Many years ago I used to produce academic publications for Heinemann. One of the authors was a Professor Shagass.

When I work from home I genuinely put in max effort, until today that is. I decided to drink around midday and colleagues and clients are genuinely oblivious to that fact. If you just say clever stuff even if it isn't relevant you mess with everyone's minds*

England get Panama.  Not sure the boy Line acre, uses Panama for his off shore tax stuff, preferring the British Virgin Islands.

Thought this was quite good from the Grauniad's live blog on the draw:

World Cup-related pun of the day: “How are teams competing in Russia 2018 supposed to win the ball back quickly,” muses Peter Oh, “when there are such serious restrictions on the free press?”

The Diamonds Factory in Hatton Garden. https://www.diamondsfactory.co.uk

Recommended by a painter who did some work on my flat, as cheaper and better quality than most places.

The ring I’ve purchased (I’m proposing soon) is so much better than anything I’ve seen. Price wise it seems unbeatable.

Amusingly an ex-girlfriend used to work there and raved about it.

Hope it all goes swimmingly Barry  Smiley

Back in the day Headlands School (as it was then, not my school) had a girl athlete called Ursula Tickle.

Their athletics vests had their names on them, first name initial followed by surname.

True story.

The Stadium of Light is normally empty with 20 minutes to go so this guy could at least have waited.

Hopefully this won't become a trend at matches.

My father in law got a couple of roe deer in the week and passed over 2 shoulders and a saddle. The saddle is basically two fillets on the bone and i roasted if up for our Sunday dinner. It was some of the most tender meat i have ever had. Amazing.
