Interesting thing happened the other day as I was going home on the train. My cell phone rang and as usual I answer since I’m on call and have to answer. And as I’m explaining to this clueless lawyer how to install a new printer a guy comes up to me and asks me to hang up. Why? Becuase there’s a ban on cell phones on commuting trains now – apparently? I had no idea they did that, but I politely informed him that these things are in the same category as “give up your seat to an elderly so they don’t have to stand”, it’s more of a recommendation & courtesy than actually being illegal. He didn’t like that but couldn’t argue and left me alone. And the guy was sitting like 10 meters away from me so don’t know how me talking on the cell annoyed him…
But generally I agree – sitting next to someone who’s talking on the phone with their friend talking about stuff I have no interest what so ever about is damn annoying…
I went to the shop to re-stock some stuff after a week in scotland and one of the things I had to buy was shower gel. And I saw Axe has a new (for me anyway!) shower gel out there called anti-hangover with the slogan “Brings you back to life – no matter how short the night was”. So I just had to buy it, can’t wait to try it 🙂
That was a few busy days in scotland, but now I’m back and settled in again and took the chance to upload some pics from that little semi-improvised trip. We didn’t have any plans of anything really but it’s been over a year since we last saw each other. Unfortunately we just missed Amy’s husband Paul who was offshore again but it was still alot of fun and as usual, coming back with alot of goodies that we don’t get here (still don’t know why they discontinued Salt & Vinegar crisps!).
Expect a day by day event report soon, meanwhile, enjoy the pics.
I’m so lazy that I haven’t done my laundry in a few weeks. And then i realised that “hey, I’m going to scotland on monday, wouldn’t hurt to have some clean clothes for that”. But I’m so lazy, and my schedule is totally full, that instead I went out and bought new clothes… I’m such a guy…
Hate to sound boring but there really is nothing happening. Working and playing WoW is pretty much it right now. But I’ll break that pattern this weekend when I’ll be busy doing other stuff and then head off to Scotland to check what’s happening with the relatives over there. Oh, gay pride week again but for once I haven’t noticed it at all!
