Re: Comfortably numb......

Well, I've made it to 3.30am safely 
When he next emerges from the back office I'll tell him he's a sheep shagger and see what he says.....if you don't hear from me again you'll know I've been arrested for insulting a police officer At least he's chattier than the Aussie who was here last night! All i have to do now is persuade him that he really wants to star in the Today programme instead of me this morning

Re: Comfortably numb......
It was soo funny, as I left there was a whole chorus of comments like "ÿou'd better sleep through the day, cos you'll only cry if you watch the match". I had to email them all a few hours later. Told them I had this figure going round my head, and couldn't remember if I should've put it in the Morning Brief - was it the number of mm of rain that have fallen since 9am yesterday..........or it could be the number of calls to 132500 since 5am yesterday.............or it could be the max wind speed recorded overnight.......but no, its the Aussie cricket score cricket score........NINETY EIGHT !!!!!!!!!

Re: Comfortably numb......
and 3-1 against Chavski tonight
hopefully wake up tomorrow to find out England declared and then dismissed Pontings poison dwarves for less than a ton again
lad even managed to stay up for the whole game, didn't like his taste of lager though
