So much for the outside - next the inside??
Safe journey!
Wish you all a great time. I'll be thinking of you all, probably hallucinating about beer very soon.
Fuck up in the company, and I'm on call every day from this Friday 'til following Friday. I'm not kooking forward to it.
i'm really pissed about the weather here. seems that the german weather department imported huge amounts of rain to make the british visitors feel at home
yesterday i went to solingen and had my seat rebuilt, 75km in pouring rain. my suit is still damp and my tankbag has just stopped dripping...aaarghh...
i really hope tomorrow will be better, 'cause my underwater driving account is nearly full now. would really like to join the RTT in dry conditions and have no inclination towards going there in the cage...
(enter vile swearwords here)
and the forecast repeats the word "rain" like a buddhistic mantra....
mmh, the scuba pig....only found in its natural habitat in the pig's bay, (s)cuba. the last reported specimen was said to be trodden on by an incompetent member of the cia-invasion forces...
I bought a gazebo to keep off the intense sunshine of only 4 weeks ago, and put it up in the back garden. Because of it's pyramid shaped top, and coming from a long line of little known rain gods. I wondered was I actually chanting some navajo or hopi rain dance, when I just thought I was just singing very badly along with Enigma while putting it up.
Just in case, I've decided to take it down today. So I want to hear of any strange changes in weather.
Anyone want to suggest what music I should sing along with this time?

we already had a few "specials".. .no effect on dapleb
so figure ild order the strong stuff : Kasteelbier
me : a small pint (33cl)
PK downed 0.5L of Kasteelbier... no effect.. no slurry speech, no hesitating steps ... unlike me
