    Eating out of a polystrene box

    There's something very demeaning about it isn't there?

    I work hard so why shouldn't I have a nice sit down lunch with a glass of wine and some good company?

    Because you have no friends?

    Just hazarding a guess here.

      If it was a good company they wouldn't need contractors!
      Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

        I can see why you've hitherto confined yourself to TPD.
        Hard Brexit now!

            Because when your banged up you have to eat what your given.

            If you want company, go to the showers.

              My guess then is he talking about a polystyrene lady friend which he's put together to get him through those long and lonely winter nights or the thing his dinner came in?
              Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

              I preferred version 1!

                  Well, of course, we had it tough. We used to 'ave to get up out of shoebox at twelve o'clock at night and lick road clean wit' tongue. We had two bits of cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at mill for sixpence every four years, and when we got home our Dad would slice us in two wit' bread knife
