- At a good friends wedding preparing the Speech. I have some rules. No-ex girlfriends. I see them more as, guidelines. #

- Full to oblivion with wedding food, wine and stickies. Need……the vomitarium. #
- Gordano. Hell hath no torment half as bad as screaming children refusing to eat food with truck drivers glowering. Sheesh. #
- @TomHammersley Funnily enough, they are tired and crabby today. #
- The high-energy remixes of famous Paul van Dyk tracks some yooof is inflicting us to on the train is like aural waterboarding. #
- Sheesh. What a day. 3 cities, 1 presentation, 2 meetings. #
- Oh, and really looking forward to rebuilding my blog this weekend after scum hacked, and destroyed, it last week. Joy….. #
