Red wine - good for the breasts

Red wine is the latest craze in the beauty salons of Buenos Aires where it's said to tighten the stomach and firm the breasts.

I'm going for the job of chief cream applier.

Long weekend break to Jersey

Just had a pretty wicked weekend in lovely Jersey.

Wow! The place is fabulous. Best weekend in ages. I went over to see my good friend Shaheen.

Friday: House party round a Kiwi nurses place. Very good fun indeed. Then moved on to the doctor's mess where we played a bit of pool.

Saturday: Ferry trip to St Mayo, France. Very similar to St Michelle (You've been there Ben). I bought a few paintings for my room. Later on we went to a couple of bars, one of which had a live band. Best band i've seen for a while. All covers but all well done. Then on to a club, and then back to the mess for more pool.

Sunday: Beach walk then barbecue on the beach, got pretty burnt but it was worth it. Then on to another few bars then onto another club.

Monday: Excellent fish resuarant for lunch, then went to a driving range to smack a load of balls, all good fun.

Just got to the airport and guess what.

My return flight was booked for next Monday!!!!!! Shit! BA had no more flights going to Gatwick so i've got to fly to Coventry. I didn't even know they had an airport. Good thing was that it's only £60. Could have been worse!

What a complete and utter numb nuts!!!!!!!!!!

I'm going to try and catch a train tonight back home but may have to get up really early to commute in.

The Lloyd's 56 building is being demolished

Out of the window next to me at work they're demolishing the old Lloyd's building. It's pretty mad how they're doing it.

Basically they've craned up 4 or 5 big JCB things on caterpillars and they're ripping it apart. Mad! I now walk into work via a different door just in case.

£19,000,000 lotto win

It's a fix. It was my turn to win. I deserve it far more fat old people who work in factories.

Lovely Bones

Any body read it?

I was handed this book yesterday as I was rushing out of the house to catch my train.

It shocked me. I can't say that it isn't a good book but it was hardly what I wanted to read on the way into work.

A young girl of 14 get raped and murdered in the first chapter and the story is about how her family and friends cope. It's told from the perspective of the murdered girl from heaven.

I usually have nice dreams, in fact very good dreams, but last nights were disturbing, not very nice at all. It's all put me in a very odd mood.

It's raining it's pouring...

... the old man's snoring.

Don't you just love getting soaking wet on the way into work? Even with a full length rain coat and an Umbrella I'm sitting at my desk soaked.

I think Ken Livingston instead of increasing the congestion charge for large cars should concentrate on more important issues that the people of London really care about.

Only allowing rain during work hours with an hours break at lunch time so people can eat their lunches outside.

It's not asking much.

My new hobby

My new hobby is taking instant dislike to people.

I was waiting for the train this morning and I cought a woman in my periferal vision. It looked as though she was smoking so the first thing that came into my mind was that I hated her.

On closer inspection she wasn't smoking afterall, but my initial reaction to hate her stayed.
