Seven Days at Work: part 7

So this little chapter of the blog comes to an end. I'm just about to leave for work on my seventh day in a row, with Dr Dave's party tonight acting as the carrot on a stick.

Yesterday: needless to say, I wasn't allocated crew baggage. Instead I was stuck in front of the ticket desk for 75% of the day, which was pretty long and boring though not taxing in the least. Afterwards I went to the tennis club with the old man for a couple, and I caught the Don with his dad and brother getting in a cheeky practice session at darts. I tried to organise a 'Super Sunday' this weekend for our darts Premier League, but there were only three of us who could make it so I guess it's probably not going to happen.

To finish with, I'm going to include an excerpt from a recent thread on Facebook. I'm guessing I must have caught Gareth in a bad mood, LOL!!

-----------------------------------------
[the thread is regarding darts on Sunday]

Gareth: I won't be able to make Sunday. I'm going to a BBQ at my Aunt's and i think Chrissy B is too. I also need to pack my shiz for america, which again i imagine C-dor also needs to do.

Me: Well there's no point doing it then unless Darren comes along. The practice of packing bags is something that always intrigues me. I've never understood what takes so long, or why whole days have to be allocated towards doing it. This isn't a pisstake but an honest question; how the fuck does it take longer than an hour (maximum) to pack a bag?!

Darren: I cant make this sunday. but its not because I am packing my bags.

Gareth: It's not as though i'm going to be packing my bags all day. I will be at a bbq for most of the day and then will pack in the evening. I also need to make sure I have all the paperwork and arrangements sorted before we leave and i'm going to try and get an early night. It's not as though i'm taking all day to just pack pants and socks. I thought this was a darts only thread?
-----------------------------------------------------

I've read this about seven times now and each time it makes me crack up, he was the one who mentioned packing bags in the first place not me! Hopefully G-Dor has calmed down a bit because I'm seeing him later!
