Hat trick!

And finally…a third sale for the week gives me a fabulous hat trick. A call

from the boss to say well done and the obligatory bottle of champers to celebrate. Usually this only happens in peak season – me so spawny!

Back of the net!

As predicted, another sale! Get in there!  This boy was first on my books back in the summer last year.  Long time coming but all the sweeter to get it at this time of the year.

Apparently, I’m gonna live forever.

No, not really.  But I just wanted to say that I’m taking the other half for a birthday treat night out to see FAME at the Edinburgh Playhouse in March.  It’s what she really wants and if I’m honest, I think it’ll be a right old laugh too.  Got good seats n all.  Well, I’ve no idea how good the seats are – all I do know is that they appear to be located in a desirable part of the theatre.  For all I know,they might be very grubby and uncomfy.

Sale number 5

Wahey n that. Man came back and left cash.  Even though sale 4 cancelled (boo hiss) I’m content working with a full team again and things are back on track – so very happy that I didn’t leave the job.

Watch this space, I am certain sale 6 is likely by Friday.

The Versatile CSP.

I’m sat here with only a minute or so of credit left. I’m in Luton Airport using a net terminal juist passing the time till my flight leaves. Been at Head Office for a couple of days learning how to be more versatile. Anyhoo…gotta go…

Eagle Awards.

Well today I got home at 4pm from Blackpool.  A four hour car journey up the M6, over to Hexham then up the A1 isn’t fun at the best of times, but when you’re nursing a stinkin hangover its doubly worse!

The reason I was in Blackpool was due to my work’s annual Eagle Awards held this year in the Blackpool Hilton hotel.  Nice enough hotel.  I was there in Sept 06 as well for a seminar so it was at least familiar.  Same faces by and large from last year – obviously, being sales, some were no longer there.  Here’s hoping I make the 2008 one!

Last year it was at Alton Towers and the day consisted of a lot of  team building tasks such as running around wooded areas looking for clues and all this stuff.  That was a good laugh.  And Bradley Walsh was the award ceremony compere!

This year was a bit different – there were no ‘activities’ as such – we just listened to various company directors and their focus for 2007 etc… Then in the evening, it was a better meal than last year, but the compere was just some old bloke who wouldn’t have looked out of place on Phoenix Nights!

Once we were on our own time in the evening, I proceeded to get pissed really quite quickly.  I have noticed that I can’t drink like I once could and I tend to get worse hangovers these days.  I can only assume that is because I’m out of practice.  Pity the same concept didn’t apply to orgasms Oh, speaking of sex, I had the unfortunate privelage of listening to some couple in a neighbouring hotel room feverishly attempting to make babies!  If you’ve ever seen the movie ‘The Secret Of My Success’ with Michael J Fox, then you’ll know what I mean.

Beer goggles.

It seems that these days they can find a mathematical formula for almost anything. Since I’m currently nursing an ‘all-day’ hangover, it felt apt to provide THIS BBC LINK.:d

A vampire no longer.

After playing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion for well over 120 hours of game time, I’ve finally managed to complete the quest enabling me to rid myself of vampirism.  It’s a welcome relief and far easier than I thought – I expected the Ashes of Hindariel to be a tougher side-quest.  Maybe it was just that I was level 30 by the time I got around to that dungeon.  Anyway, I’m still chuffed to be back to ‘normal’ again as a young healthy Nord.

Wahey (etc…)

Sale number 3 completed and I got sale 4 this weekend!  Fabby dabby.  Sold my first-ever 4 Bedroom.  Go me!

Annoying?

Out of pure idle curiousity, lets see how long you lot can tolerate this http://69.93.111.150/albino_flash17/annoy(www.albinoblacksheep.com).swf

Think I lasted about 5 mins before it drove me to distraction. Wouldn’t have lasted that long neither, if it hadn’t been for the underpants
