Bloody hell, what is the world coming to. I was there with the wife and kids last year, very sobering thought.

Sozabarus managed to find a way to get the last 10 episodes, watched 11,12,13,14 and 15 last night, then end of episode 10 left me speechless!!!

RIP Ragnar!!! That was sad, seeing him like that, but it didn't stop him planting a seed for another of his genius plans. S01, S02 and a bit of S03, Ragnar was boss, but ever since Athelstan died, he had lost it, everything he did was a failure, ever since the Paris defeat he was broken too. Can't wait to see where this goes regarding his sons, Ivar will be ruthless I reckon.

Anybody on here asked for a payrise? Working up the courage to do this soon.

The special was filmed a year a go.

Yeah its still a tad underwhelming.

 

[Cruyff14]

You've got nothing to lose by asking Cruyff. I ask 4-5 times a year, and usually end up being successful at least once. Obviously you need to put a strong case forward.

If I didn't ask, I wouldn't know.

Yeah I will also use the fact I haven't had one since I started (off my own bat), and for the last month we have been doing the work of more than what is in our team currently.

I remember the 2006 world cup game had a good soundtrack

Nothing as fun as hearing Fighter in a strong Trinidadian accent. Makes me miss seeing them in the World Cup.

I thought the same with Chappelle. Didn't think it was great so watched it again. Think I expected more but it's still good.

They gave us such memories as this



Fancy being 6 foot, 7 inches and still needing to use your opponent as a step ladder and fancy that opponent being from Trinidad and Tobago and you play for England.

At my work if you leave, AFAIK, they don't try and convince you to stay etc

Yeah that sucks. It would be hard to stay pulling that card anyway. I'm certainly not going to. Current job uses the shit out of us working crap hours for average $$$.

 

[Cruyff14]

Should also note I am on a contract, will 99% be renewed.

One of my colleague's today said I should wait until renewal time, and then when it is offered, say, it's not enough, going to need more etc (we are most likely going to have an incredibly large volume of work coming in).

It's a processing/admin job etc.

Home warranty etc. It's a mandatory product.

Just finished auditing an insurance company. Can't say I'd be thrilled to do their job.

Lol Bozzas at a lunch I'm at.

In February, I received a letter in the mail from the Electoral Commission advising me I did not vote in a local election last October. This would be acceptable if I did not vote. I was there, with my girlfriend, and got my name marked off.

The letter which was received in February, gave me the chance to pay the fine - $78, or appeal. I obviously appealed, and they ask for an explanation etc. I basically wrote something along the lines of "On Saturday X October, I went to (local primary school name) around 9.30am, to vote in the local election. I got my name marked off, filled in the forms, and placed my paper in the ballot box. I would hope this does not happen again, as I obeyed the law, and due to your poor administrational skills, I have been accused of something I did not do. In future, I would hope you have more thorough processes in place to avoid a repeat", or something like that.

Get home from work today. Another letter from the AEC. "Your excuse is insufficient". I have to pay the fine by May 3rd, or I can choose to take it to court.

I lost my shit. They'll be getting a call from me Monday lunch time and I will be going right through them.
