The Official Nonsense Thread

[Minty]

I have now been at four different desks in a week. Each desk had to be cleaned (as the last occupant, or probably last ten) had never bothered to clean it once, & the PC switched off at the mains because they'd left themselves logged in (& in one instance couldn't be bothered coming over to log in to log themselves out properly in order to allow others to log in). If this causes them subsequent probs, don't care, coz I'm at the end of my tether with the under 30s in that place. They're as ignorant as they are indolent, & if buck passing became an Olympic sport they'd be gold medalists.

I console myself with the prospect of the tiny tears should Hearts beat Rangers on Saturday & the Orc hordes hopes of automatic promotion vanish, along with the last hopes of funding to prevent them going into their second administration.

I spoke with a lovely woman of 102 today who said she felt ashamed as this was the first year she had failed to prune back her trees as she felt too tired this year. It was the vision of her at 101 balancing on wobbly step ladders to cut back her branches that made my previous household repairs last summer seem chickenfeed by comparison. Wouldn't it be wonderful to reach that age & still be fit enough to do all the things you wanted to do? There's meant to be a place called Raynham in Norfolk full of 90 year olds still working on the local estate.

Trying to get some enthusiasm up for Far Cry 4, but failing.
