Badger Jun 2024 10:21am, 3 Jun 2024 17,165 posts	Quote Pin Badger Cycled to work this morning wearing a lurid green Endurance Life tech t. Got to work and discovered I had not put the work shirt in my pannier. Sunglasses required for everyone in the office today.
Diogenes Jun 2024 10:58am, 3 Jun 2024 86,322 posts	Quote Pin Diogenes I was feeling pleased with myself for how much I've got done so far this morning, and then I realised that it's 11 o clock already.

Raemondo Jun 2024 11:35am, 3 Jun 2024 11,812 posts	Quote Pin Raemondo I made myself a delicious lunch of couscous with chorizo and sultanas and borlotti beans, and forgot to pack a fork to eat it with.
Lip Gloss Jun 2024 11:35am, 3 Jun 2024 75,944 posts	Quote Pin Lip Gloss I started painting the decking before realising my phone was on the bench. Cue long handled sweeping brush .
Fat Dave Jun 2024 11:37am, 3 Jun 2024 15,206 posts	Quote Pin Fat Dave Word froze. And, it seems, had not been saving any of my work this morning. Which was news to me.
Raemondo Jun 2024 12:56pm, 3 Jun 2024 11,813 posts	Quote Pin Raemondo Worse even then the lack of fork (I was able to buy a cheap spoon at a nearby shop), over the weekend some delightful soul decided to push over the chemical toilet at the site I'm working on today. The company has just come to take that one away and replace it with one less thoroughly coated in its own contents, but that means the air is now full of unpleasant aromas where things have been disturbed 🤢
