All sorts of stuff...

So awoke this morning, far too early, and headed off to get the train (bit late, forgot I didn't have a ticket, just managed to get the train!) Got to work, forgot I had a job on, and had half hoped someone might have done it whilst I was off...no such luck.

Then heard the news about the earthquake in Italy. So made the appropriate phonecalls to check on the family - everyone's ok.

Then get an answerphone message from my dad. I assume it will be regarding the quake...but no, it's him bellowing into my answerphone 'TADDIES!! Taddies have hatched! We've got taddies swimming FREEEEEE'.

Priorities, we got 'em.


I forgot to say, last Weds we heard a right old commotion on the building site which is opposite us on the gasworks...so obviously, being nosey, went and had a butcher's.

A guy had fallen into a rubble pulveriser. It wasn't pretty. They called the fire crews and the ambo, the police turned up and then the air ambulance - but I think the guy was literally mincemeat. Looked like all that was holding the squish together was what was left of the clothing. Nasty. Anyway, meant their site got shut down cos the HSE would have had to come and have a look. It may have been that just a bit of him went in it, we were a bit far away to see. I'm probably glad about that...


I'm reeeeaaaaalllyyyyy glad it's a short week this week. I just don't feel like it at the mo. I blame the clocks changing. Why do we still insist on changing them? I honestly think it's a SHITE idea. Stoppit!!
