Last night I was chatting to a mate about childhood pets. I have no idea why - it was just one of those things. Realised that I may have been somewhat inaccurate when explaining my pet tortoises'* escape into freedom when I explained 'It ran away'.
My mate wouldn't stop laughing at me for ten minutes. Swine.
On another note, was having a bit of a clear out and am disturbed to find that I can track my entire career history in promotional T-shirts. Howevr, the coolest jobs also had the best T-shirts (in hindsight) so, here's a quick test to find out whether your company is going to hit the skids or not (assuming it has promo T-shirts). Look at the t-shirt. If it's something you'd feel happy to wear out on the street, you're probably safe in your job. If the ink starts to fade after one wash, run away. The company will be going down the pan in the near future.
