My scorecard.
6 ends of 50 or morr, including 4 consecutive, and I still can't get to 500.
Shot distribution.
3 in the black FFS, and only 5 in the blue.
Arrows scoring 8 8 9 10 10 and X, for a score of 55.
There's not a lot of room in the 10 ring, so 3 so close together is pretty satisfying.
Frustratingly, #Project500 continues - in the main, I probably shot as well as I ever have, but 3 in the black meant I "only" scored 490.

I have a new manager - he started a couple of weeks ago, working remotely from abroad until he relocates back to the UK this month.
He's in Dubai...
And I don't have contact details for him yet, other than work email - which may not be his priority over this weekend

Absolutely - Calum Gilhooley (Booking a Flight)
Callum Gilhooley books a flight and reinvents the phonetic alphabet (About once a week I wang on about how this is one of the greatest, most brilliantly-written sketches ever, and deserves to be hailed alongside Four Candles and Andrew Preview)

Dear Mr Kirkdale bookshop keeper,
It's me, the boy who asked to put the "One Piece" book on hold.
How's your day been so far?
Well for me, I'm getting thro teeth out at the dentist, not because their rotten but because I need to braces (I cind of scared).
Due to the above, I will not be able to buy the book so please, please, please can you keep the book for one more day.
From the boy, Jacob is my name.
p.s. plase, please, please rec.
Imagine being like this. Maybe we actually were all once like this. Be more like this guy!

Fond memories of working at NTL, woman rang up screaming at me. Her husband in background shouts at her, βdonβt talk to them like that. Theyβre on fuck allβ
Then he takes phone off her, and gives me a line which I have used myself since
βDo you have a manager you dislike intensely I can speak to?β
