Wedding party. 4 hours from civilisation. Pre gig drinks reception.
One of the younger guests spend evening fielding you & xxx are next questions
His GF finds text from his ex & discovers theyâve been shagging for a year.
Demands to leave.
Everyone is pickled.
Drama. No sleep.Dont tell the bride. Single track road for an hour out of here in the dark.
He made it to the airport dropped her at 5am. Which is a miracle.
Hope he gets back, he was our lift outta here Sunday

Just shy of 3 months in new job and seem to have a rude colleague who is fine with others but super snappy with me. 
My tactic is to be very polite to rude people, it seems to confuse them. However it is imperative that whilst maintaining this air of friendliness you donât accommodate them in any way or do the things they want you to. Itâs a fine art

Tonight I met up with two of my ex colleagues (now good mates) from my last job. I mentioned it to one and she was surprised as generally I get on with everyone. I know we donât always like/get on with people but at work just be civil. I will keep being nice.

Absolutely correct Gav it confuses the fuck out of them and do use Sir / Maâam as well.
And then do something completely different but correctly.

This is really starting to annoy me more and more. âNewsâ articles that are just quotes from peopleâs tweets. Itâs not news itâs just an opinion piece. We cannot on Twitter and find that ourselves if we want. I donât care what idiot1234 has to say about any topic.
This seems to be mostly is the local online news âpapersâ but Iâve seen it on BBC and others.

The state of journalism is a fucking scandal. Award winning journalists like Pilger, Fisk, Hersch are marginalised because they donât toe the line. The public is left trawling twitter for illegitimate info from dubious sources or sucking on the MSM breast.

I was chatting to a friend of a friend last night about Venezuela as she had been there too. I was saying itâs not all that it seems on the news. Her go to were BBC and Guardian. I suggested looking a bit wider as they are limited too.
Knowing that when we get home Iâm gonna be forced to binge watch Outlander Season 3 after this weekend

And mine too.
On a more serious note Matt, silica ingestion/inhalation is the new âasbestosâ health issue on construction sites. You need to be taking more care of yourself. Itâs a huge HSE campaign (quite rightly so) and insurers are forecasting that it will affect more people than asbestos ever did and eclipse insurance payouts âŚ
