It’s like Justin had the anti gravity cheat code for mini ramps

Last time I think I saw him was about the same time, around 2001 at that Oxford spine. Only time I ever went there. Floating massive melon fakies and cracking to nose. RIP

So simple @nav - I burst into tears reading this. Justin was everyone’s fucking hero at the ramps. Can you imagine being 10 and seeing this shit.
Sorry to bang on. Gunna leave this place alone today. Have a good one everyone.

It was a big ask as we could only afford to offer what we could but seems the Sunday school building we wanted had a offer over the asking to secure it so it has gone to them. It was too perfect that I had a hope in the back of my mind that something would work out. Hey ho.

Aw that sucks. It would have been a cool space. On a brighter note, the road its on would be a nightmare.
Gonna have another moan haha
We are in the middle of moving to the flat literally next door to ours (the door is 2 metres away), we are basically swapping with the lady that lives there as she wants to downsize, we want to upsize etc.
In my mind this is the dream moving scenario, we just move most of the stuff and it will feel like just moving into the next room, right?!?
WRONG!
Wife has some agreement with the lady next door and feels sorry for her as she has gone through a nasty divorce and she’d also like to have the floors here re-sanded and walls painted. Which means completely moving all our stuff out, down 3 flights of stairs and across town to mother in law’s. And back of course.
My easy moving dream shattered into a thousand shards.

So simple on paper.
Been ill for nearly 3 weeks. Bad cold / borderline chest infection that hasn’t quite kicked in enough to warrant a doc visit but just not going away. Going through the Pantone book of phlegm colours. Mmm
I’m glad it’s not full flu though and I’m over the worst i think
Had my timetable changed due to other people leaving and now have to teach the worst kids ever 4 times a week. Said I’d quit if they didn’t sort it out and that I was being punished for not being a lazy twat. Guess what happened? Nothing. I am going to go insane. Great news, not. Do not work in a school - you’re a disposable tool to safeguard the massive wages of those above you and nothing else.

Seems like the education system is in such a downward spiral. So sad to watch and also scary as I have skin in the game in both son and grandson.
My wife works in schools and it’s heartbreaking to hear the tales.
My school days were good and most (or a lot) kids came through with a really decent education. Sad to think that’s not on the table anymore.
Asked if I could convert 2 Word docs to PDFs.
Said ok, should be straightforwards. First attempt, the fonts weren’t embedding - turns out I can’t add custom fonts in browser and need the desktop for Mac app. Ok, no problem download Word for Mac, but can’t install it because my OS isn’t up to date. Fine, download the new Mac OS. 2.5 hours later I finally install it - it’s a nightmare, everything is different, it looks horrible, all my settings are gone. But fine, I’ll fix it later, at least I can install Word now. Open up the files in Word, save as PDF. All the fonts are now fucking Calibri. Why. Manage to figure out I need to check a specific option in the settings. Try again - now the PDF has the correct fonts but it’s wildly fucked up the formatting. Spend another hour fixing the formatting in Word, the absolute worst programme possible for page layouts. Finally, I export the PDFs and send them across to the person who requested them - get their OOO, as they finished early for Christmas…

Print, save as PDF, combine the two PDFs?
Sorry if that doesn’t make sense, had an apocalyptic day at work.

I just got a parking fine through for spending almost four hours in Tesco car park.
Except I didn’t. I went there twice in one day. Didn’t park in the same spot or anything.
Pissed me right off…
I’ve had this happen before. Went in and out of the same carpark just to turn around about two hours apart but the camera clocked only the first entry and second exit as one long stay. It was next to a pub with a thing to input your registration otherwise you got a PCN.
I’d recommend going into the Tesco and speaking to them about it. With mine, the pub didn’t manage the carpark but was having this happen so often they had a shortcut to cancelling the fine.
At the least I imagine the Tesco should be able to reference any time stamps you give them for your trip with security footage.
Nice one, cheers. Will swing by tomorrow and see if they can help. Not the time of year to be paying BS fines…
Pay them two visits just to be on the safe side.
