Bit dodgy when I've already asked for the day off. My contract expires at the end of june

and while I don't want to renew it it would still be nice to get a decent reference. Plus he'd then dump it on a mate who's already been shafted once this week.

I'm now fairly sure that Scott Adams has taken a part time job at our place

hehe i used to have a manager whose nickname was DABA, he often refered to himself as "the pointy haired one".....he looked like dilberts boss aswell as acted like him.
his daughter is a stripper at the windmill now, top piece of totty

my tubes and oil filter have arrived

however i'm not very impressed with straightline, they've sent the tubes taped to the oilfilter packaging so i now have glue all over the tubes

they also sent me the invoice WITH MY CREDIT CARD INFO INCLUDING SECURITY NUMBER AND EXPIRY DATE written on it

We got the same package then.. Although mine was left OUTSIDE on the plant pot for the whole world to grab. A word with Postie.
Agreed, Straightline are naughty peeps for doing the CC thing. Bad boys, to the corner you go.

Im gonna bring some oil with me,, thinking it's a service day an all. Is that ok with the houseowner person?

Had a card from the postman saying he's got something for me that needs a signature so hopefully that's my toobs. I'll nip down the post office in the morning.

Currently planning to bring:

Emulsion tubes
Range of tools
Carb cleaner (think I've got some left)
Jaffa cakes

What else do I need to bring?

Got the day off so see you at all at jht's at 9:30

Lied about the carb cleaner, seems I have brake and clutch cleaner.

I need to pass pretty close to Camberley Autofactors on the way over in the morning, is it worth seeing if they've got some carb cleaner?

Catsbum: Did you get the filter as well?

Started a sweepstake at work on who'd be the next person to leave, the bloke who got shafted last week (got made project manager of a big budget program that's rapidly going bad when the previous PM quit) picked himself for next month. It's got him wondering

I got one oil filter for myself but 6 ltrs of oil. So Toneski if you want the balance...

Im bringing some basic tools, sockets, allen for panels, screwdriver, oh and a magnet pen. Anything else I should load? Im working on the theory that others will too.
