I would have looked for a new job.
Hello all. Shitty mood today due to work problems. Boo - but also, in a shocking twist - hoo.

Had a nice time at my mother's even though the lamb was overcooked. My kid was superb, much fun was had. Yesterday was squandered though - failed to make the most of it.

Who would hire you then? And what are you good at?

I need to find smallish London based online/catalogue retailers.
I'm good at belittling people and dressing unprofessionally.

EDIT: and swearing.

Thanks a lot.
How's the beer coming along?

It'll need at least another week fermenting.
Well at a guess, I'm going to do a hydrometer test tonight. SCIENCE

I can get behind the science of beer,
some of the more esoteric stuff I struggle to raise an interest in. I tend to be interested in the results rather than the processes by which the results are achieved: as long as something works I don't care why. Such a disappointment to my father.

It's a fairly balance of biology and chemistry.
And it happens before your eyes which is nice.

Plus you end up getting pissed cheaply.

Re WWII agent yarns, are you aware of that Spanish fellow codenamed Garbo?
His story is incredible.

Just amazing, I think.


EDIT righto I'm off before I get the sack. See ya.

Afternoon all.
I heard it yesterday, but this book is the one that the book of the week is based on: www.amazon.com/The-Double-cross-system-John-C-Masterman/dp/0300014961

A very good read it is too.
