Weekend! What Weekend?

This weekend hasn't really been much of one. After receiving a rather stupid email on Thurday afternoon requiring me to complete a report for next wednesday, any time off was just a joke. I mean what kind of a person give you 5 days, of which only 3 are working to complete something. Suggests to me that someone needs to look at their time management. Don't get me wrong, its not like its impossible to do, just I'll have to work over the weekend. Also its not like I dont ahve other things to be doing, such as ICE quarterly reports and work/training courses. I mean that is what they pay me for right? Anyways, that coupled with what I'd describe as a rather personal survey that I had to complete online have now set my opinion on this development program! Mind you I shall go to the courses with an open mind, might learn something, or teach them a thing or two, you never know! Like acceptable response times...

Did manage some fun on Friday night, went out got battered, played pool. Heaven help me this may become a regular thing, and I knwo my liver is gonna hate me for that! Finally managed to make it to see Starwars too. Have to say its the best film I've seen in a while and ties up the saga nicely. Its quite a dark film, but not as far as the Empire Strike Back, which still has to take the crown. Would reccomend it to anyone who is umming and ahhing over whether to go or not, just make it a late showing so its not full of kids.

The GP proved to be dissapointing again, with Schumy lucky to get 2 points, though it was a nice move on Rubens on the last lap. Am I being cynical though in thinking that there might be some dodgy team orders at play there though? Or will it be the usual excuse of "spongey brakes" ? Have to say I'm getting quite distraught with Bridgestone, WILL THEY SORT OUT THE TYRES!!! Nice as it is to see Michael drive his socks off every weekend, I'd like to see him back on the podium soon, and preferable the top step. But any of you out there thinking I'm a glory supporter and will be abandoning my man will be sadly mistaken. Just looks like 1998/1999 all over again. Bring on the 2nd half of the season fight back and the thrilling finale, thats what I say.

Well a course all this week on 1st aid, so should be interesting. At least I'll be able to attempt to save dying people by the end of the week, but not sure how good I'll be! I'm guessing it'll be practicing on dummies and lots of videos, woohoo! Give me concrete and peg bashing over that any day!
