    Snow day anyone?

    Normally I'd pile into the office if there was 10ft of snow so as to not lose a days billing....

    ALAS, schools are closed. My dear wife is a District Nurse so can't bail at the last minute so today is down to me for childcare. Alas, can't leave 5 year olds home alone.

    Client being a right c@ck about WFH for contractors which is disappointing. (Well one guy).

    So Peppa Pig, Sooty, and Barbie box set marathon for me.

    You could at least upgrade to Ben and Holly, Hey Dugee, and My Little Pony.

          Funny that everyone around you is a cock. Isn't there a saying about that?

          Why are people cocks just because you don't get your way?

            Working from home but need to get my hair cut and buy a new golf driver. So pretty pissed as the roads are ice. Might just take the afternoon off and watch a decent horror movie.

                I've moved up into the sticks so about 40 mins away from Manchester but lots of the roads aren't gritted. So it's a bit of a nightmare getting anywhere, seriously thinking of selling the Porsche and getting a Discovery Sport - the Porsche can't deal with a light frosting never mind 3 day old ice.

                  Can the Bentley driver not drive the golf too?

                    I'm afraid the Bentley driver has been poached by HRM, apparently, one of the royals keeps crashing into the peasants.
