I fucking love Barolo.

Any sane person does.

 

[machine cat]

Right. I have done all my work. I have done all my filing. I am ready for holiday!!

What?!

 

[Voley]

but nice one NVP what's barolo like? I asked on another thread once, and as usual was ignored

Here's what it says on the bottle

"Garnet red colour with orange nuances. The perfume is typical, ethereal, pleasant, intense, with notes of violet and rose. The flavour is full, strong, severe but velvety and harmonic with a light licorice aftertaste like soft porn in the afternoon. It is suitable to accompany roast meats, game and is ideal quaffed in one sitting whilst in a bath, crying, and singing about your unemployment."

What?!

see earlier posts expressing our outrage

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Just fired off a couple of applications.

I have just overheard someone in the office discussing their plans to but 2 dozen advocados this evening. The mind boggles

wut wut? Holiday? - did you clear this with the Drag management board?

I think not

it's just not on - holiday forms need to be submitted and approved

*looks smug*

It is "staycation" time!!

So far plans are Wookey Hole and Cheddar Gorge (already booked) then the animation exhibition at the Barbican, the Dirt exhibition at the Wellcome Collection, the sci-fi collection at the British Library and the Horniman Museum

Sounds perfect

Didn't someone scrawl the last few words in biro on the label?

 

[TruXta]

17500 - goal reached!

 

[Voley]

It is a bloody lovely red. Up there with Amarone as one of my faves. Very thoughtful of them, I must say. They were a good bunch to work with, all in all.

Last day of contract is Thursday. That said I'll be doing a one-off interviewing gig for a week or two after that, so won't be entirely feckless.

Ah, that's not so bad. Definitely calls for a bottle of Barolo mind.

Mmmmm. I was supposed to have my last day the 30th of June, but bosslady arranged for extension to get things properly sorted. Word of that didn't trickle down to me office-mate, so on the day lo and behold a bottle of whiskey adorned my desk...
