Plans going to shit....I had it all mapped out last night. I had a ton of cardboard packaging in the garage, a pallet on the drive and bags of polystyrene packing material in various places. The plan was simple:
Get up and do what I need to do for work at 6am. Fill the wife's car with the stuff to be recycled. Be at the tip for 7am when it opens. Get back, go an a run with the dog. Breakfast. Back working for 9am.
The reality was different:
Alarm goes off at 5:50, wife's phone buzzes 2 mins later. Her engineers have discovered they don't have the materials needed for today's job. She throws on some clothes, goes to the office/warehouse to supply them. Get's back at 7.30 I load up her car. Windscreen wipers no worky. WTF? It's a Honda, they never go wrong. Spend 20 minutes looking for handbook, checking fuses, etc. By this time it's stopped raining so I'll chance it. Set off, windscreen wipers working fine. WTFx2? Get to tip after negotiating traffic due to late set off, unload my stuff. See some bloke struggling with a 1 tonne bag of garden waste. Offer to help him, Christ it's heavy. We manhandle it up the steps, empty it into the skip, he points at my clothes and apologises. I am covered in mud and shit.
Sat here now. Not yet had a shower, still covered in muddy clothes as work has suddenly gone a bit mental, wondering why the Cosmic Joker has it in for me today.....
Edit: Just sat here laughing. Have received an email from the Bank of England advising they will deliver back the considerable amount of German Government bonds we pledged as collateral once we have paid a fee of....wait for it....
£0.68p. Sixty-eight fucking pence..... Let me dig around in the top drawer of my desk.
Gutted. Before it had a small dent, now it looks like its had a shit respray on half the wing. 
) but I do keep expecting the phone to actually keep what I type as what it posts!!! FFS - I should have learnt after all the years of bastard predictive text!!! 
Clever phone
