Nelson Mandela was released from prison twenty years ago today.. I remember watching it on telly; me mum, sister and I sat down to watch it because it was a Moment In History. I can't believe it was twenty years ago, it makes me feel old :)
Things I have seen that have amused me
A van on the way to work this morning that had writing across the back doors. I can't remember exactly what it said but it went something like this:
"How am I driving? I'm sorry if I'm driving slowly, the reason is Sheffield roads and all the f****** potholes. Sheffield, the holy, holy city."
Passive aggressive washing up.
You may or may not have come across this in your workplace. What happens is someone goes up to the sink with all the cups and spoons dumped in it, fills it up with water and washing up liquid then walks away.
Someone did this at work the other day and I'm not sure what they were hoping to achieve; all that happens is that someone else comes along and pulls the plug out after the water goes cold. Whoever did it would have been better off pinning a note to the wall, ala
PassiveAggressiveNotes.com, saying 'Your mother doesn’t work here you know!'
I actually did the washing up this afternoon; the sink area was starting to look like something out of The Young Ones.
