It's my sister's birthday today, so yes, it's a bad day for me as I have to shell out and make an international phone call; half of it wasted listening to her spawn making gurgling noises. Oh joy!

mmmm.....well actually thats one more time than i call my sister.
3 times a year.
Christmas, New Year & her birthday. She calls me on my birthday (and maybe Christmas & New Year too).
No, its a great sunny, autumnal day here (Must be something to do with Dr A going back to LOS). I'm going for a walk down the pier later. https://teakdoor.com/images/icons/icon7.gifQuote:

no worries mate!
The only txt's i get from ex-girlfriends is "i hope you burn in hell you cheating bastard"
No problems for me yet today, on the way home from Nong Khai today i passed what was left of a large truck that had been parked wheels upwards in a ditch by a Thai stunt driver. He was standing nearby looking dazed and confused, maybe he did not know what day it was?
In my case, she was the one who cheated! :)Quote:

mind you, I flew into Bkk and onto CM on that inauspicious day; all that happened was that the plane was 30 minutes late
....but what happened in that 30 minutes of 'lost time' Doc - did you 'miss' a chance encounter that may have altered your life - Alternatively, perhaps you had a chance encounter that you wouldn't have had if the plane had been on time....Think on it Doc, think on it....but not too much, especially if you are driving your bus because it is easy to get distracted by thinking too much and you may miss a stop and then the would-be passengers would get really angry at the bus not stopping - In fact, one of them may miss a chance encounter because of your bus not stoppping, or maybe it would be the cause of a chance encounter - with another of the disgruntled waiting passengers, one with a 'plan'?.....You see Doc, things are not always as clear as they would first seem....Those 'lost' 30 minutes may yet come back to haunt this world....And all because of a distracted bus driver named 'Doc'....Quote:

Friday the 13th is just another day to me.
actually friday 13th was quite lucky for me.
my wife got suspicious and called me just before midnight to check where i was and who i was with. And luckily actually I was where I had told her I would be, and with my mate from work as I said I would be.
Usually that is not the case......
Anyway I gave her a right earful for not trusting me and making me lose face etc etc......
My mother died on a Friday 13th, so I have been a bit superstitious about it since then.
Friday the 13th, funnily enough, was one of the best days I've had in months. I felt awake, happy and I actually had a laugh with the customers. Last Friday the 13th wasn't too bad either, if I remember rightly.
