Mileage Oddity

Mar 07, 2009 14:57

Yesterday I filled up the 'BertMobile. We have to record our mileage on the fuel card for work, and not only was it 1010 but I used pump 10! The girl on the till didn't believe me. Still it's a slightly more positive reading than when I turned up at church a couple of weeks back: 666! Blimey.

Not much else to report:

Had our first meeting with the new boss, and he actually seems human and interested in us, which is a shocking change, but a huge relief. Hopefully it'll stay that way...

My lie-in was ruined by Tank knocking a pint of coke onto the carpet very early this morning. Cleaning it up woke me up, so I found myself doing an astounding array of chores by 8am. Mr W and I then went shopping for Red Noses, and had a nice lunch in The Slug.

Shortly (in fact I should've prolly already set off) I'll be heading over to Unusual Guru Wilbur's as he's moving house and the services of the 'BertMobile are required. His new place is on a main road with no parking, so we're having an evening moving extravaganza. He's paying me in scampi at the pub afterwards. Hurrah! I saw him earlier in the week too for the official Monthly Greediness, so I hope this second meeting within 4 days isn't going to put too much of a strain on our friendship!

Ooo, and just for the record: bookage - Neal Stephenson's The Big U, Maureen Lipman's Lip Reading, and just about to start Haruki Murakami's What I Talk About when I Talk About Running.

Right, had best go wrestle the back seats down, attach the magnetic nose and head off. Byeeee!

chums, bertwork, bookage
