Not impressed by the culinary experience in Wigan, the Toby Carvery was out of yorkshire puddings. Is that even possible?!

Highly likely as I was nervous about it months in advance! I hate being assessed. 

I’m safe! But just to be extra safe I have escaped to Wigan for the night. Also, top tip if you don’t wanna expose yourself as a supporter of the opposite team; don’t say ”thank courgette” out loud when the swedish goal keeper makes a save. It will make the whole crowd of strangers in front of...

Got most of my education in Sweden and graduated from high school aged 16 with good grades. My parents never really pushed me in any direction. Mum said I could be whatever I wanted as long as I didn’t want to be a farmer (could possibly have had something to do with the fact that she was the...

If I had a quid for every time I’ve been asked that this week... I’d need to be asked a lot more in order to save up a deposit on a house, but it would buy me a nice pair of shoes! 😂  On the basis that I have solid grounds to support both teams I’m in a win-win situation, my team can’t lose. 😜...

The IT Crowd saves the day once again 😂

Of course. We’ll get through this together...🤝

Whilst on the subject of football. Any survival tips for how to get through football related conversations at work for the next few weeks? 🙄

Oooops! Hitting a water service is bad enough, I wouldn’t wanna be that digger driver.  :run   Just wondering if the water main was shallow or if they were planning on laying cables 3 m deep?  :huh:

Independent Connection Provider I think they can refuse your authorisation. 

No, reallyyy?!  :facepalm:  ok, i did kinda walk into that one :D   Thank you for that bit of education though :)  

My work phone is a 7000 year old nokia. It does nothing smart whatsoever, and it doesn’t even have Snake (much to my disappointment). But I do still kinda love it for reasons like only having to charge it once a week and I don’t have to take my gloves off to answer a phone call. 

Strössel makes everything better :)   I’m intrigued, what’s a V block? 

When/if I ever get to vote in a general election I’m writing ”Deke for prime minister” all over my ballot paper.  :wub:

 This is a fair point, the trouble comes when the employer does not belive that they are ”worth more” purely based on the gender of the employee. 

Apologies if any of this don’t make sense, I’m going with straight translations and I don’t think I even know the english words for some of this.  Start buttons 2 hand relay Delayed upturn No idea what støssel means, but opp means up :D   Støssel in what i think means top/up position (i...

Challenging my brain at this time of the night?  :blink:  Everything but what’s in the last photo is Danish or Norwegian, the last one is Swedish. Give me a minute and I’ll give translation a go.
