Well this was about to go on grind my gears as I got an Rpa email.

Title xxxx RPA physical inspection and I was about to get all depressed.

However when I opened the title had been cut off and it said Physical Inspection results. As no issues were found with your 2017 physical inspection there will be no deductions from your 2017 payment. :) Now will this be the first year we have got it in Dec?

About b100dy time, he is an incompetent idiot. How he ever manages to keep his job is anyone's guess. Almost every delivery ends up with him loosing items (although later finding them, it still causes a delay), he gets side tracked into helping rescue a cat from a windmill, or he is for ever stopping to help Ted Glenn with her plumbing or trim Mrs Goggin's bush.
..Having said all that, I do like Jess(y)
Was that a late night special?

Just watching another repeat of One Foot in the Grave and Victor Meldrew had gone and got employed by a local farmer. He spent 5 days walking up and down a cultivated field looking for a lost wedding ring the farmer had lost somewhere out there. It was only when the postie spoke over the fence to Meldrew saying that he was lasting longer at the job than the others plus dropping the bombshell that the farmer wasn't even married.
When Meldrew gets home doing his usual rant that he says that it was one of the tractor drivers that said that he was only there as a scarecrow as the crows didn't take any notice of a wooden one :ROFLMAO:

I found a hidden Easter egg in late September when I was about 10, and of course tried to eat it. One bite and I was off chocolate for around 10 years!
I am still not fussed....rather have a good cheese.....:shy:
 
Simple thing really . I'm sitting here in my office , looking out across what I laughingly call a lawn (used to be a corner of the back field ,) and which has a small wood at the top that I established 40 odd years ago . It's quite sunny but with a bit of a bite in the air . I'm looking at 5 hen pheasants just picking away peacefully in the grass , and they just got joined by a cock pheasant , a really nice family group . Just made me think that little things like that help to balance the bad thoughts that we occasionally have these days . Makes me mile anyway , even though to some people they've become a pernicious pest in their increasing numbers .
