If only Heineken made home brew

Bonus points to anyone who can guess the ingredients of this pint, concocted at the Old Printworks last night.

Allan's cup

When you go on honeymoon and have 3 weeks off work, empty your cup of orange juice before you leave the office!

In other news, i'm currently about to turn 25 and will try and make some effort to blog properly!

A good night out was had last night with Mr. Allan, Barratt, Burrows, Neill and Miss. McCormack in the good old Minibar, really need to do it more often and that is a second resolution to start with the official beginning of my late 20s!

Aaargh!
Well, I'm struggling studying for my MCP thingiemabob, to be quite honest a lot of it isn't sinking in, and I don't think I'm putting enough effort.

Time to re-think my study strategies or else its a trip to the job centre to sign on on 5th September rather than Dell :-/

I've been speaking to someone who started in the same job on Tuesday, it sounds like the job is going to be rather demanding, and the training very intensive.

I hope I'm not getting myself in for something I can't handle....

Its been a while!
Indeed, a long while since I last updated this thing.

Probably because I've not been doing an awful lot, but one major change is upcoming - I have a new job, hurrah!

I'm off to to business tech support for Dell, which should be nice. More money, better benefits, better job, better prospects, nicer office. I'm really looking forward to it. Just a shame I need to wait until 5th September, and also pass an MCP exam before I start.

Better start studying then, as soon as Amazon deliver the book which they haven't even dispatched yet, despite ordering over 24 hours ago...

Mon Colin!
How amused was I this morning to see some new pictures from Colin, who is currently cycling around Malaysia. its a whopping 9 months since he left Scotland:

Before leaving
9 months later
10 minutes later

Very good. But still doesn't make up for the fact I should be at Alton Towers right now, bastards... Instead, I am bored at work :-(

On a good note, Oasis last Wednesday was absolutely fantastic - pictures here for anyone interested.

There are some pictures of a nice but largely uneventful trip to Balloch on Saturday also. We did see a ned jumping from a boat in to the loch after they realised they were getting further from shore, not closer as they were trying to do :)

Not much else going on otherwise, although planning to go and see War Of The Worlds at some point.
