Me too! But only 'cos I'm sad that Star Wars is dead.
I have Pink Floyd though... And they -AND THE HUB- are all I need....

Star Wars isn't dead. That kind of talk is usually the preserve of the internet weirdo. We'll have none of that here.

A good day yesterday: v good night's sleep Sat/Sun, comfortable and very low levels of pain for most of the day, and a very nice trip out for lunch.

Old tenancy packed up ready to go into storage in a few weeks. Just some clothing and robots which will have to be hand luggage on next trip as I cleaned out the local Poundstretcher of tubs!
I am still back and forth for another 3 weeks due to logistics and other issues before the flat is gone and still responsible for rent and bills on it so hameoraging money like nobody's business. Hey ho!
My thanks to Mr Andu for help with packing or I never would have got it all done in time. Next trip up is for an exam so no time to do it then!
Over the last few weeks some hard choices were made about tossing things!

Ugh. Despite use of recorded delivery, Royal Mail have managed to lose a letter sent last week containing several original and hard to replace legal documents. Thanks for that.

How do you tell the difference between a crocodile and an alligator?
One will see you later, and the other, in a while...

An atom visits it's GP and says "I fell down yesterday, and think I lost an electron."
The GP asked, "are you sure?"
The atom replied, "I'm positive..."

I have bumblebees in my loft. That's because ever since TF2007, Hasbro have flooded the market with his figure.

DUDE. I can hear you eating your breakfast (of raw carrots?) again from the other side of the office. Go into the communal dining space, please. And even then I reckon I could still hear you from my desk.
Is what I would say if I felt like causing a morning disruption in the office.

Back in those glorious days when I used to work in an office, I found the most important piece of equipment I owned was a pair of headphones. No one should be forced to hear carrots being eaten. Their cries of anguish are most disturbing.

Rather thrown this morning - and worried - by discovering I've been overpaid this month. Now there's always a tiny bit of variation around now, new tax year etc. But £1400?? ?? ?? ?? I await my payslip's arrival at lunch time with interest..... This could cause problems with the DWP, so I'd like it sorted ASAP. ASAP won't happen as it's a bank holiday. :-( Spent an hour in with the payslips, not helped by the payroll system having changed in the last few months. I *THINK* I've accidentally been paid twice at differing rates. An email has gone to payroll..... £1400 is hard to miss. March's payslip features a number on it, X, which post pensions cbns. That's been the same since the last raise. April's payslip features a larger number on it, Y, which is pre pensions cbns. It also features a pension deduction, Z This is the first of the new style of payslip. Y-Z however does not equal X, slightly worrying. May's Payslip has all three of X, Y & Z on it. I think we can see quite how Payroll were at home to Mr Cock Up though the lack of a reply does tend to indicate they didn't get to my email this afternoon! Took a week to work out but Payroll have just got back to me and said they've been at home to Mr Cock Up
