AVATAR!

Posted in Uncategorized on January 15, 2010 by alengthastring

As we all know, there is a new-ish flick out called Avatar… yea yea so fookin wot. i’ll see it when it comes out on DVD. But.. .apparently its caused a bit of a stir. Quote from one english newspaper “Cameron’s blockbuster offers a chilling metaphor for European butchery of the Americas. No wonder the US right hates it”

WOT?

FFS get a life. itsa film.. kick back, have a beer, watch teh film and enjoy it!

De-Icer

Posted in Uncategorized on January 9, 2010 by alengthastring

I would just like to point out that the local Tesco has run out of De-Icer! Of course, this has nothing to do with them clearing the shelves on BOXING DAY of anything wintery or christmassy … making way for EASTER EGGS!!!!!

Beast Wars… Continued

Posted in Uncategorized on January 5, 2010 by alengthastring

Well… what a start to the year…

Monday: the beast managed to pack 15 boxes – in 5 hours!!!

its half a fookin hours work! i worked it out… make box, put crap in, close box, stack = 2 minutes each. talk about takin teh fookin piss!

Tuesday: sssshhhhhh but this is teh filenote i entered into her record today…

Can you please place this on the beasts file?

 I was asked to remove some goods from stock by some geezer. When I went to the location, the goods were not labelled with the part number.

As it is a requirement when stock is receipted that it is clearly labelled, I challenged Beast about this, responses below:

 Beast: the label was too big for the packet

Your Hero: put it in a bag and label that

Beast: I didn’t think of that or maybe I was going to label it when it went out

Your Hero: everything must be labelled before it goes into the store

Beast: but the labels are too big for the packet

Your Hero: so put it in a bag and label that.

Beast: it was the only thing in the location

Your Hero: it might not have been. What if there was something else in there? How would you know which is which?

Beast: well that ones beryllium and the other one isn’t (said in sarcastic voice)

Your Hero: we carry other beryllium parts, what if they were together

Beast: well I know which is which

Your Hero: and what if something happens to you? How would the next person know

Beast: well maybe I was busy that day and didn’t have time

Your Hero: no excuse. Everything must be labelled before it goes in the store.

 By this time she has raised her voice and is on the defensive. I re-iterated that everything must be labelled no matter what. Response muttered, I believe “alright, whatever” but couldn’t say for sure.

 Within the hour I could hear her from the warehouse crying (and coughing) (possibly to her mum (also works there) – cant put a definite on it)

 This is not a good start to the New Year and it cannot continue like this.

** names have strangely enough been changed for some legal crap **

Deep breaths…. kewl.. end of… rant over :)

“It Follows You!”

Posted in Uncategorized on July 14, 2009 by alengthastring

A friend of mine said she couldn’t wait to read the blog about the holiday (Riall) coz, in her words… “it follows you”
So… here we are… lets go over the last couple days events shall we.
Sunday morning… shouldn’t hav gon to sleep.. felt like crap lol
Got up – early
Got done – early (record for cara) lol
Taxi – early (shocked still lol)
At airport – early still
Check-in – easy (startin to get worried now… this is far too easy)
On plane… usual crap – it left a little late due to….erm… lemme see.. oh yes.. inability of airport staff to get to the gate on time. We were called and got tere before the gate staff!
And the pilot!
Take off – jumpy
Flight – done worse
Landing – hard (just how cara likes it hehehe)
Got to the hotel (The Rubicon Prison… oops Palace) and done the check in bit – room not ready can we go have lunch and come back then for the key.

Waited for restaurant to open, had a nice lunch and went back to the reception – room still not eady… come back in 40 minutes.

So far we had been here over an hour.

After a total of 2 hours we hada key and were taken by “train” to the room. If the room was any further from the facilities we coulda popped home n fed the cats!

As it was the room was.. clean. The balcony door couldn’t be locked and the bed collapsed when cara sat on it! Koff adios koff

After another 2 n half hours and 7 phone calls, maintenance repaired it all. This is after requestin a room change to be told they are fully booked (bollox… next door was empty) and that we didn’t pay for a sea view. Nope, we didn’t pay for a sea view and at no point did we ask for one. On the same note, we didn’t pay for a view of a building site either but we had one.

We are at Tuesday now, im a lil burnt… caras run out of things to talk about so is just repeating the same stuff lol

At the mo her nose is in a book and we are waiting to change rooms. Had a word with the rep yesterday and he apparently worked his magic. We now havea room that over looks the pool and has a massive balcony.. with living plants. The old room had a balcony with a dead aloe vera and a length of hose pipe! Lovely… just like home lol.
Currently, im wangin out some kickin tunes on the lappy and caras reading a jodi picoult book.

Spent all day checkin out the jubblies along the sea front and round the pool… no I didn’t photograph them.. wotya take me for.. a perv?!?! Got an album full… wanna see hehehe

The island is actually stunnin and I would recommend to anyone to come here. The hotel is gorgeous but like all euro countries… they hate the english! Must be coz we are hospitable and they aint ner ner.

and someone had to say it follows me lol
