Proj yes I believe Scorpio and Taurus are good together. Shall we shag?

Would it be unthigh to say that I don't believe a word of all that astrology nonsense though? I think it was Russell Grant who put me off.

Thanks for all the half hearted offers regarding the cat shit. I've done it as I didn't want shit licked on me and the robot mower is not working.

TopiaryTractorTart · 15/06/2019 10:32

Oh thigh I love that ! There will be little white rabbits hopping around on those grass terraced bits for our amusement.

We could get rubber rings and slide down that slide. Can't fucking wait

TopiaryTractorTart · 15/06/2019 10:38

I went out with a Taurus boy when I was 17. He got off with someone else on New Years Eve so I chucked him.

M3lon · 15/06/2019 10:38

I don't know what star sign my child is! or my DH! Good grief I could have been in danger all this time!

CarolinePooter · 15/06/2019 10:41

Well Hitler was really into astrology and fortune tellers so not a great recommendation!

DanglyTassles · 15/06/2019 10:57

I married a Taurusbefore dh, I still hate him now! I'd put him on the list but he lives abroad and I don't do planes! suppose I could go on the magik carpet but I can't be arsed even murdering him.

nakedscientist · 15/06/2019 10:57

M3Ion the salary is halfway between mine and his. They we shocked at the lowness of mine and said "ooh well it will be an uplift for you then"...... Grrrrrrr.

What did you say to your HoD?

Mine is off on sabbatical not dead actually, I have a handover on Monday. Could be undead I suppose.
I would love to give you a job, consider it done, how' s your Biochemistry?

DanglyTassles · 15/06/2019 10:58

When we live in our high castle we do not need to go shopping. All shopping must come to us via Asda, Tesco or Ocado and sometimes Amazon.

TopiaryTractorTart · 15/06/2019 11:05

Not Asda DT! They are terrible, I'm sure we've been here before.

Once they just left all my food shopping with my neighbour because I had left and gone to work due to them being so late. She put it in her garage and all the frozen stuff melted. Idiots

TopiaryTractorTart · 15/06/2019 11:06

I think our own supermarket in one of the basements which is topped up by Oompa Loompas via a tunnel under the moat.

M3lon · 15/06/2019 11:12

naked Its wasn't all that awful in reality...just I lose patience with people thinking they are 'on top of the EDI agenda' but then when you say, I wonder if people other than professors could have a voice in...well anything' and all the same old shit excuses just start up...

I kinda lost it a bit. May have pointed out that non-professors aren't actually subhuman and do in fact have important things to contribute...

My biochemistry is absolutely tip top.....for a physicist........

How on earth has a HoD gone on sabbatical? You go on sabbatical when you finish being HoD surely? How does your HoD not know roughly how much everyone is paid?

I just BET they sold you this as a succession planning opportunity...

I am feeling extremely cynical about academia this morning....also all the other mornings...

M3lon · 15/06/2019 11:17

Oh - and if one more professor gives me some friendly advice about how I might make more progress with my agenda if I didn't raising things the way I do, or speak our the way I speak, I'll scream....actually full on scream.

If they put half the effort they put into policing the messaging into actually listening and changing then we would have fixed our problems about 5 years ago.

M3lon · 15/06/2019 11:18

man...I lost ability speak english!

nakedscientist · 15/06/2019 11:21

Yeah, he's not coming back, it's just an excuse to pay me less for a year and then put me in post ( I think...).

So, second year metabolism starting in October the? Great, I was stressing who to dump that on!

nakedscientist · 15/06/2019 11:22

Oh and I've gone a bit.........weird.........on the fat thread!

nakedscientist · 15/06/2019 11:27

M3Ion. Good lord woman, they don't want to fix the problem. No, no, they need to appear to adhere to a forward thinking agenda in the current climate going forward from the get go.........and relax, back to normal, old chap.

I just revised a book from the OU and it was the same old Watson and Crick 's DNA double helix ( Rosalind Franklin shared some data that helped them... Blah blah) I was not subtle in what I said... They've not replied, bastards.

Blimey a million posts since stupid o'clock and then.... Nothing

Stop me arguing on the fat thread! pleaaaaaasssseeee

ProjectGainsborough · 15/06/2019 12:22

I’m disappointed in all these nefarious Tauruses. We are loyal. I think we should eliminate these outliers.

Ok, I’m going to hold my nose and am off to the fat thread.

ProjectGainsborough · 15/06/2019 12:24

Fuck no, naked get out of there now. They really are getting Final Solution in this.

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 15/06/2019 12:45

Oh shit according to my birth date & you lot then my next career move is serial killer!
Though Thighs's Castle looks like a good place for vampires. Yes I know Bled is Slovenia but vampires can have holiday homes.
What was I up to early hours of this morning. Thinking about my next career move & does Villanelle get a workplace pension, a company car & how much is her clothing allowance?

pineapplebryanbrown · 15/06/2019 13:14
