The old City credo was you had to be there - even if you slept in the gutter. No excuses were accepted for self inflicted damage. A day as a trader with a hangover could be horrendous , especially it it got really hectic. Somehow you learn to cope and just fly on auto-pilot. And try not to do anything too risky or stupid.
No comment Let’s just say some people always seemed to be much happier after a visit to the men’s room.
In Rwanda, Lake Kivu forms part of the Border between Rwanda and The DRC. Just jacked in the job, so I would deffo not prefer to be at work.
To date yes. The problem is that no company likes spending money on tailings dams because there is no profit in them. One has to fight for mobile plant etc. in order to build them. Also silly environmental protection agencies do not like discharge into water courses so often they hold more water than they are designed for. One thing is certain, although there is no pay back for building a dam early, there is a mega negative payback when one goes tits-up.
Misses has got the hump with me, so I'm sitting downstairs trying to find something to watch on the tele, whilst she is upstairs sulking. Evidently working on the roof of a property I'm doing up, today and having to go into the office tomorrow is not what she had in mind for the weekend before Christmas
What’s everyone else drinking for Xmas? Looking for some recommendations on the following basis: I’m not looking for any spirits. I don’t want to travel to a Farm Shop in Shropshire to get it.
Been down to the pub for the first time since leaving hospital day. Sad news. Guinness and I have agreed to separate permanently. There's no bitterness involved, our relationship has just come to a natural ending. Haven't decided on my next relationship yet, although there's a couple of perky merlots and malbecs down the pub.
