Re: Saying peoples names

I can very much relate to this.

At work - I very rarely call people by their names to get their attention. That includes my boss. It either has to be shortened names, nicknames or I merely start...

Re: What did Santa bring you for Christmas?

So, what did Father Christmas bring me this year?

A boot liner for my car and a pair of socks...

Oh yes...and a tub of Cadbury's Heros.

Re: Prefer to stay in on New Years Eve?

I'm someone who does unfortunately suffer from the typical 'New Year's Blues', where I'm generally feeling pretty low and reminiscent on both New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. I've not celebrated it...

Re: SA at work , my paranoid ramblings

No problem, Bluenoise72.

I have no problem with mutually speaking to people. Giving them the odd pleasant exchange and a bit of typically brief conversation about the weather and other menial...

Re: Putting on an act at work to get through it

Entirely relatable.

I've been in my current job for 13 years this autumn. It's in a shared sales office which, unfortunately to begin with and for many years, was a deeply social environment which...

Re: What are you doing right now? (6)

Trying to figure out how to get out of two work social events which are in the very early stages of planning. One I think I can get out of quite easily. The other? Hmmm...it could be difficult.

Re: Do you go to the gym?

I'll have to be completely honest here and admit to never having had a gym membership or having had any desire to attend a gym. Not because I don't want to improve myself, but for two simple facts....

Re: How many caffeinated drinks do you drink a day?

I dread to think, actually...

If we're talking about coffee (about the only caffeinated drink I have) on a typical Monday to Friday working day - anywhere between four and six is normal, depending...

Re: Do you consider yourself to have internet addiction?

@affluenza - That's understandable. I found myself unemployed for around six weeks back in 2010. My routine was basically get up, have breakfast whilst watching a bit of TV, search for jobs online...

Re: Last thing you bought

@Alone. - I love the bag! Embarrassing confession - I recently found myself in M&S and bought myself a pair of corduroy trousers in a similar shade!

Re: Type what you're thinking about right now (11)

I'm just thinking about how I've just waisted three days of my life stuck in work when the vast majority of the industry I work in are closed until the New Year. As predicted, there has been...

Re: TV programs you're watching?

I don't watch much TV, it has to be said. However, I am looking forward to the new series of The Apprentice, which I believe starts on either 5th or 6th January...

Re: Are you ill right now?

I had that nasty cold which was going around a few weeks ago, but seem to be over the worst of it now. I just cracked on with it and worked my way through it - although it was pretty tough going for...

Re: Motivation for walking

I really ought to get back into walking in the new year. I've not done much of it for at least the last twelve, if not eighteen months. I used to enjoy it and I did lose some weight. There was a few...

Re: The allure of small towns/villages

It can be a bit of a double-edged sword for me, this one...

I live in a mid-sized town and whilst I don't particularly like it or it's people, it serves my basic needs reasonably well.

Re: Having Boundaries

@alone - I won't go into too much detail about him. It all boils down to politics, combined with his job many years ago. I was literally a baby at the time but I know over the course of the next few...

Re: Do you consider yourself to have internet addiction?

Many thanks indeed for the tip, Alone.

I started using this pretty much as soon as I saw your post and I have to say, I've been impressed with it so far. No adverts at all. I'd never come across...

Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)

Pretty anxious about this week to be honest.

I finish work on Thursday evening, but the final week before Christmas always involves the exchanging of cards and presents. I absolutely loathe the...

Re: Having Boundaries

I'm generally a forgiving person and in the past have been too naïve towards several people, who I should have cut-off before I eventually did. Probably from my mid-twenties onwards, I've had to...

Re: Do you consider yourself to have internet addiction?

I'm beginning to consider YouTube Premium to get rid of the adverts. To begin with, I didn't actually mind the odd advert. I understand why they're there - to help the content creators. However over...

Re: Tea/Coffee reduces iron absorption

@biscuts - An excellent picture. I didn't see that one coming! That certainly made me chuckle! :lol:

I'm not much of a tea-drinker to be honest, but I have to admit I'm partial to a coffee - to...

Re: how far away from your birthplace do you live?

Re: Is anyone able to just be? To go with the flow? How do you do it?

I'm a little odd that when I'm with family members, I'm generally okay to go with the flow. I'm comfortable around most of them, they know what I'm like and generally my direct family aren't the...

Re: Do you consider yourself to have internet addiction?

Yes, Tembo. YouTube seems to be 'the' place to be. Especially if you want to learn something or see documentaries/explanations from different perspectives on subjects that interest you. Something...
