Woke up this morning and frankly, just couldn’t be arsed to
go to work. Decided instead to lie in
bed till 10.30 am and spend the day gardening.
Lord Heseltine was right when he said British workers don’t get up early
enough or work hard enough. Tell me
about it! Every day, I get in way before
any of my team mates and procrastinate less than most of them but do my efforts
go recognised and rewarded? England
might win the World Cup before they do. Today’s private protest is against the
capitalist oppressor. Today is for all duvet
day revolutionaries out there.
Solidarity brothers and sisters!
Rumour on the Street is we’re being sold if the price is
right and we’ve been told that the purchaser may not be your usual type of
financial institution. I hear Durex may
be looking to get into banking. They’ve
been in the withdrawal business so long they now want to start taking
deposits. Staff uniform will be replaced
with one made of pink latex and rubber swim hats will be deemed compulsory
headgear on dress down Friday’s. From
now on, annual bonuses will be paid in stock, staff to indicate size and
flavour when the flexibility window opens each year. He, he, he – can’t be any worse than it is
now can it?
No sign of cardoon flowers yet but fruits are starting to
come through thick and fast. Picked a
whole punnet of cherries from our patio tree and there’s a bumper crop of
blackcurrants also in the making.

This Tupperware
tub was just today’s harvest but there’s plenty more where these came from.
