Delivering a pizza. Local order, minimum fee. 10 mins work tops, as no waiting time at pizzeria this time of day.

Address incomplete. Customer has given name of road only. There is a hotel of the same name in that road, I assume they are there, and I phone them, they confirm that they are indeed there and will be standing outside.

I get there. Nope. Phone them again, no they are at the other hotel at the other end of the road, outside a hotel with an entirely different name.

I get them their food. They then proceed to walk into a different building entirely, offices in fact, the address of which is actually a different street from the one they gave me to start with.

"Passed away".

(No they haven't, they died.)

Now that I have been home for long enough to boot up the home PC I have been able to look up who has been trying to phone me eight times today.

It appears that the number 0330-010-8312 is a call centre in the UK trying to phone me about PPI.

This number has now been added to my phone reject list.

Couriers; the last two days they were meant to collect a parcel, I'll be taking it to the post office tomorrow and paying the extra

People who butcher their bike's wring loom in the name of 'cool'. Twin Bates headlamps are not cool. Stuffing the entire contents of your headlamp into the space behind the headstock after using all manner of different diameter wires to extend it is not cool. Wrapping the loom in gaffer tape and refuse sacks ain't cool either nor is it cool when you've run out of 30A fuses trying to find out where the hell it's shorting.

I so much wanted to stab someone over this today...

Kin ell and I thought a previous owner lubing his control cables with lard was bad.

Have you checked the bulbs? If there are twin headlights when one blows it can cause such a surge on the other that it melts the thick wires that the filament connect to together.

That is Engineering at it's best. Any Engineer will tell you that botching the job is necessary to keep production going. Worry about engineering it properly later after the event, cunting Capitalist buggers.

Yes I'm bitter spent much...bla ....bla

Reverse engineering.

I was out from work on Friday so expected everything to be a mess today, I started to boot up my laptop and connect it up to various displays.... Only to find that someone has taken my VGA to HDMI adapter. I need this to do my job and nobody owned up to taking it, IT lads didn't have any spare ones either.

Also I have a cough that is giving me a headache.
