Random Irritations

[IanM]

Life lesson.... don't nibble chilli covered peanuts, then rub your eyes.

...oh, that's a "random irritation" not a moan

Once dropped a contact lens in the soap dish and then popped it in my eye, so I feel your pain.

... is the same as taking out your contact lenses, forgetting that you'd been chopping chillies earlier in the evening ...

Irritation ... Somebody, somewhere nearby, is working on a demolition site?? I can hear the clattering, banging, and reversing beeps! Who on earth is working today??? (And its too early in the morning for any day of the year, let alone Christmas Day)

Maybe Santa bought him a new digger for Christmas and he is desperate to try it out!

Have since worked out that it's folk working on the railway. Understandable because of the Christmas line closures - but no less irritating.

I am.

Well, I say working but I'm actually sitting in my apartment in Aberdeen getting paid to drink coffee and surf the internet as it's too windy to work. Maybe that should be in the Gladden the Heart thread.

Ok - I know loads of folk have to work over Christmas time. But generally not on building sites. And, given that I now know it's on the railway, I guess the folk there didn't get much choice either.
Ps. Happy christmas ..

We have a day and night turn looking after the control room today whilst the techs do their updates etc that would take too long for eng hours

Always volunteers, normally the asian lads as they don't celebrate Xmas

I'll be taking them off 7am tomorrow to start the service

No they won't; they'll be reliant on track possessions to work on the line, and given that at Christmas & New Year so much shuts down it will be where they plan some of their longer jobs. Much like Streetworks will try to plan bigger road works schemes to the school summer holidays.

Windows 10 updates , I spent ages trying to copy various files to my newish laptop via an external storage stick.
Only to eventually discover that Windows latest update wouldn't allow it , I had to do a system restore before it worked.
I've also learned how to screenshot and send, you'd better watch out lol.

Sleeping in a single bed.
We’re at the in laws for a couple of days and I just can’t get used to not having room to spread around, I keep waking up thinking I’m going to fall out of bed ?

I have only just shook off a cold and have come down with another ?. A slight head cold this morning has turned into a fully blown head cold by early evening. On Christmas day as well ?
