Asked work-colleague2 about a pay rise for significant-other1 (AKA work-colleague5 and house-mate3) today, as significant-other1 is in danger of turning into whingeing-bat2.

Work-colleague2 said he would have to ask work-colleague1 (AKA good-friend17), as he was worried about it putting work-colleague3’s (AKA house-mate2 and good-friend23) nose out of joint.

This will probably involve work-colleague1 having to talk to work-colleague4 who is also work colleague1’s significant-other1 and whingeing-bat1. Work-colleague1 and work-colleague2 are also sibling4 and sibling2 to each other respectively making work-colleague4 work-colleague2’s in-law7.

Personally at the moment I could not care less if house-mate2’s nose is miss-aligned, as he appears to have developed a phobia about washing-up and cleaning. All in all I think I may just recommend that significant-other1 looks for new-colleagues* to avoid becoming whingeing-bat1 and we look for a place with house-mates(null).

Only time will tell

Back for 2 Days and censored already

Apologies to all concerned, but I was not aware that there was anyone out there whose sensibilities would be offended by the word t**d. In fact I picked it due to my belief that it was the most inoffensive short slang word for excrement.

I am sure I have used the word t**d in front of my mum and even grandmother on occasion, but I will now seriously rethink this as it obviously causes much more offence than I previously imagined.

Still learning

Hello, My name is JAVAM and I'm a .......... I'm a Fiat owner.

Ok, ok I exaggerate it is not as bad as attending a self help class, in fact against the odds I am quite pleased with my new car. Admittedly I have now joined the ranks of people who brag about MPG, ease of parking, and the way the coin holder works, rather than 0-60 time, top speed and how big my tyres are. But then after all these are genuine good points and although I am not exactly an eco-warrior, I have at least reduced my contribution to environmental damage by about 75%.

So it must be a good thing.

(Oh and people are less likely to speculate on the size of your genitals)

Things wot I have learnt

1) Turbocharged 16v 2.0 Lancia engines are possibly the best 4 pot engine ever built for performance and sheer pace.

2) Replacing a blown turbo on a Turbocharged 16v 2.0 Lancia engine is likely to cost more than the deposit on a new Fiat.

3) Replacing a Turbocharged Lancia with a 1.1 Fiat makes economical sense

4) Contemplating replacing a Turbocharged Lancia with a 1.1 Fiat makes a self-diagnosed petrol head unable to sleep at night

5) No home should be without a DVD player

6) One person's Perl script is another person's nightmare

7) Weird South American spirits you have never heard of before should be drunk in small measures

Virgil Brigman back on the air

I'm back and ready to rumble, or at least ready to type rambling nonsense, stick my nose into things I only think I know something about but in fact tend not to have a clue about and generally make a prat of myself.
