Err, sorry, standard response from me these days I'm afraid. I seem to be spending far too much time with ex-army types. My partner, my boss, half the locals down the pub, half my family. It kind of rubs off on you after a while...

And doubtless hanging about on line with a civil servanrt is reason for doing things in duplicate...

I guess, though actually all our self carbonating forms come in fours or twos. Go figure. Most of them are being phased out anyway.

God bless the railways. We *never* do things in fours. Sometimes on fours to'

Not my night, clearly. I meant "on fours tho' "

Railways. The line I travel to work on daily is operated by WAGN, commonly known as We Are Going Nowhere.
If I am made to be late again by a flamin train driver sleeping in rather than me then I think I'll go Homicidal
(Nuke the 
ers so you can shoot them in the dark)
Apologies for ranting in your journal there KA

that's okay- I work for 'em (not WAGN, I hasten to add), but you won't find me defending them...

blimey, there's something you don't see everyday. No not the innuendo from KA about things on all fours (What exactly? Twister? Help me out here...) but somebody who apologizes for ranting in KA's journal...
Never catch me doing that and I spout the most unnutterable rubbish.

It's a first I think. Shame this isn't my Journal but, feel free to rant and rave. Just mind you wipe the spittal and froth off thw walls afterwards.
Yes dear, we play twister on all fours.

I've played twister on all fours with french exchange students. So stop it right now ot you will burn in hell for all eternity...

Frogs have a natural advantage in twister
I think I'm going to anyway, don't you? Lveel eight wasn't it...

I think we are both doomed. Thank the Lord. I have no wish to sit atop clouds and play a harp.
I shall, though, be applying for a job as an overseer,of course...I'm not into the idea of my pain and misery all.

I fear there may be a certain about of working one's way up the ranks involved....
