Hi all,
Little tip - it is not a good idea to go to the hairdressers after a bad day at work. It is all too likely that you will see a magazine with the words "Is it time for a new job? Turn to page 59" blaring out at you from the front cover.
No, Wednesday wasn't the greatest day at work. Mind you, on reflection it wasn't quite like being extracted from the office and placed in a cell at nearby Barlinnie Jail as I thought at the time.
Of course that didn't stop me from picking up the magazine and opening to the page opposite page 58 (no, not page 57!).
Naturally you say you'll be objective, but you can't help picking option D from this question:
WHAT DOES YOUR BOSS GIVE YOU AS YOUR FIRST TASK IN THE MORNING?
A) Make them a cup of tea.
B) Make them a cup of coffee.
C) Bring them a glass of water.
D) Lick their muddy shoes clean with your tongue, and then cook-up a complete continental breakfast.
So do yourself a favour - don't do those tests. You will only give utterly false answers in attempt to get the result you want!
CONGRATULATIONS TO Scottish comedian Fred MacAulay, who managed to rekindle memories of an embarrassing school incident on Thursday night. By allowing someone to show the trick where you hold water upside-down in a glass of water with the help of a piece of card. Of course when I tried to do the trick all those years ago I forgot one vital ingredient - the piece of card...
FURTHER CONGRATULATIONS TO former Crystal Palace hero Ian Wright, for actually dressing like too-funny-to-be-taken-seriously bad guy Dr. Evil on his chat show. Whether Wright is aware of this is another matter altogether.
NO CONGRATULATIONS TO Tara Webb, aka Miss Lyme Regis (for the geographically ignorant it is situated in Dorset, England). Well, actually she isn't Miss Lyme Regis any longer, having been stripped of the title for... not appearing at a fund-raising duck race. What a terrible scandal!
Have a good week!
Tony
