Well.. a dog barked earlier.

Bit hairy there for a while.

Buddy the Elf was standing on the side of the road after a pretty nasty car crash on my way home earlier, that's about as wild as it's gotten around here.

Black Eye Friday is the last Friday before Christmas when the office parties and general getting-shitfaced-for-Christmas activity tends to reach its peak

I literally have a black eye. I literally walked in to a door. I felt like a complete idiot, plus it really hurts. So not great for me!

Please include pictures. Life in a wheelchair is decidely less fun than working legs... I need details & photos.

That Buddy Elf is a wrong un. Ours is a Sparkles... She's clearly stolen Ken off the advent calendar Barbie (who is v androgenous)

10 years ago I'd have had the fights in town to watch. Till they both got nicked...

On lunch break from work earlier I overheard one man tell another that he was lucky there were witnesses as otherwise he'd be a dead man. I don't know what happened beforehand but he completely ignored the threat and just kept on smoking his cigarette.

I used to live in Ull. Where I am now decidedly less dangerous.
