Ha, I did something similar on Friday - complaining that a colleague wasn't answering emails, meeting requests etc. Thought I was doing it to an individual - no the Team chat. I spent all weekend fretting, however it worked a treat and it's like the guy has a rocket up his nether regions.

I used to work at a train depot as a teenage apprentice. All the old hands had a 45 minute liquid lunch then get back to working with heavy machinery.

Always thought they're happy to dig up Roman/Celt sites with impunity, but when it came to Aunt Gladys and where the spare back door key was, that was a bit fat no. I guess it'll be on Antiques Roadshow in 3026.

You scumbag, you savoury meatball or dumpling made from minced pork, offal (like liver, heart, kidney), breadcrumbs, herbs (especially sage), and spices, often wrapped in fat or bacon and served with gravy, mash, and peas.
Merry Christmas, I hope it's our last.
