  1. Don't have a ticket for tonight but heading down for these festivities. Date night with the other half sorted.
  2. #WelcomeMonsterMunch
  3. Think they should put up the As It Stands table during this.
  4. That photo of him gives me the heebie-jeebies.

  6. Going to Fuerteventura in November for the other halfs 30th. Staying in a proper all inclusive for the first time as a couple. Went to a lot growing up and always been so impressed. We tried one in Turkey a few years ago and it was absolutely horrendous, so it's taken a lot of convincing to get her to try again, she's more of an airbnb do it all yourself type person. We are going to just relax for a week so I'm not too fussed about things to do, but one thing she loves is snorkeling. However she isn't a particularly confident swimmer. Last time we went snorkeling was with dolphins in Terceira, practically in the middle of the ocean and she ended up having a panic attack. Has anyone done any snorkeling in Fuerteventura, shallow preferably, and can recommend any places/trips to book? I've seen a few online but always better to get proper reviews.
  7. Cheers, I ended up submitting the lower reading and they seem to have accepted it and given me a bill. Edit: I actually bothered to read the bill and they'd done what you suggested and given me an estimated reading slightly higher than the previous one. I contacted their chat and they've fixed it all, very quickly and easily, thanks for the tip.
  8. British gas emailed me to ask for meter readings today, I do it every 3 months, last one being in May. Now, I clearly entered the one in May wrong, as this time my meter for my gas is less than what I submitted last time. I've never had this before, anyone have any idea what happens in this scenario? Cheers.
  9. At this stage I have no idea who to vote for. I've had 8 different bits of election literature posted through my door, all of them from the lib dems, a party I can't vote for for personal reasons. Two of them were delivered to me by name, one of them hand written (which I found a bit creepy tbh). All have gone straight into recycling. I grew up in a strong tory household, who are now all voting remain. I won't vote remain. I've noticed a lot of lib dem signs around my area (a safe tory seat), but in the past few days there's been a hell of a lot of reform signs gone up. The tactical vote site seems to indicate lib dem as the way to get the tory out, but even they don't seem too sure and only updated it a few days ago. Either way as I said I won't ever vote for them. I'll probably vote Labour, but again not for any reason other than because I don't want to vote for the others more.
  10. That run out went for 4. Super cheating Yorkshite.

    Work dilemma

    I totally agree, I've been guilty of this my whole life Without going into too much detail, this company is massive and they are undertaking, in their words, the biggest project of it's kind ever inside Europe (no idea if this is true). Due to delays they are also forking out over 12 million a month to the old system owners after missing the deadline to complete. So their priority is to get the project done. What I've made is a small addon to what they are implementing (software that runs their entire network, owned by an American company). It makes an enormous difference to this specific job, however the project itself is so massive and all encompassing it's unlikely to be noticed higher up without some real force from people more senior than myself. I am in an (almost) entry-level job within one site, there's about 30 sites nationally. My most senior manager available to chat is a shift manager, noone more senior is ever available locally. The more I think about it the less likely I think I'll get more than a thank you. To be honest if my site know what I've done and it opens opportunities to me locally I think I'd be happy. I do know its worth a lot to them, but perhaps the timing isn't great.

    Work dilemma

    I made it in my own time at home on a personal laptop and tested it on a training system (website) provided to us which we can access from home. I did it to make my own job easier and then saw its potential. I haven't been able to have any meaningful discussions with anyone yet, however it was approved for internal testing at our site with the look to put it out nationwide, with me controlling it (I am still the only one with actual access to the tool, I've set it up for other people to use myself). My colleagues have all heaped praise on it, it's made a job go from noone wanting to ever do it to the only one people want to do. I'd estimate it's halved the time it takes to do that specific role, and cut mistakes to almost zero. I don't think I will really get anything out of it, as I said previously it's a small part of an absolutely enormous project the company is undertaking, just hoping the senior team at my site comprehend what I have achieved and the benefit to their site it will generate. With that in mind in hoping to chat to someone this week.
  13. Hope he slays.
  14. Should go for Juan Carlos Carcedo if he leaves.
  15. Bottle of this in the garden. Surprisingly nice.
  16. Breaking the trophy. Such disrespect. Worst winner ever.
  17. The riggidy diggidy bit is very Andy from The Office US.
  18. Blurring the Windows logo really adds to it. Superb.
  19. Years & Years had some summertime pop bangers so this is thoroughly disappointing.
  20. If this was number one in Greece for a few weeks, I feel quite sorry for shop workers over there. Imagine this playing every hour.
