Night on the Tiles

March 9th, 2008 Big Al No comments

Flares TilesWe went out in Bradford last night for my friend and colleague’s 40th birthday. I had a good laugh. We had a few drinks in Lloyds before heading off to Flares for many hours of making a fool of ourselves dancing. At stupid o’clock we went to Omar’s for curry before seeing the night off and going home.

On Friday I was at my manager’s sister’s house (she’s house sitting) for food and merriment, watching sky sports on loop and leaving half way through 51st State because my friend and I were knackered.

Last night I dreamt I had a MacBook Pro. I dreamt that it fell in the bath and I dried it out and it ’still’ didn’t work! Damn electronics.

Back to work tomorrow – boo! But not long until Easter – wahey!

More 1&1 and Night Out

June 10th, 2007 Big Al No comments

Well, I moaned at 1&1 and they switched my server back on. The day after I also received a letter from the debt collector for non-payment for services provided. I emailed them pointing out 1&1’s incompetences, and copied 1&1’s billing dept. All next morning I got an email from both companies saying that my account with the debt collection agency is closed and no monies are owed. I hope I don’t have to go through this every quarter.

It was Kes’ birthday yesterday so we went out for many many beers starting at 4pm. Saw some guys out I’ve not seen in years. I enjoyed it – it was good. Mikey came with me too. We left about 11:45 and started walking for a taxi, but ended up spending out last tenner in an Indian. We started walking from Shipley into Bradford as we still hadn’t found a taxi, and I tried to get cash from the cash machine. It turns out that my bank are closed for maintenance until 8am Monday, so I’m pretty much screwed for cash! By this time we were in Bradford and it was 2am. So, like you do, I called my mum for a lift home. Thank God she answered – I didn’t fancy the 10 miles walk home, especially when we’d already walked 4 miles to get to Bradford in the first place.

Anyway, got home okay in the end. Feeling surprisingly fine considering the length of the drinking sesh, which is more than I can say for Kes who’s apparently feeling like death.
