Yes the new Issue 5 of my bowling mag is out for all you millions of eager readers and if you want a change from listening to the Michael Jackson news stories go here and have a bit of peace…
With a week where the ladies toilets at The Monastery (sounds contradictory that doesn't it) was invaded by creepy crawlies, in fact it resembled a scene from movie King Kong as millions on ants crawled on every surface, I of course don't normally visit there!
I just went there to view the most talked about event of the week (until of course today), inside huge bugs 3 inches in length resembling giant woodlice and scorpion like creatures with huge claws, you could here all the little feet tapping on the porcelain
As I stood in the door mouth wide open a one foot long giant centipede was heading towards me, I quickly slammed the door shut and made a quick run for the safety of the office!
Also this week my manager, Bob does not believe I am from the planet Earth and requires me to produce documentation to that I am not an alien, I have only been working there 8 years!
I have got to keep reminding myself that if I don't pass for human I am not much good to my task of saving the planet much like Doctor Who, yes my cover is blown but for me it goes much deeper than flying about in a wood box.
We had a sales meeting which our ever cheerful sales guy Captain Pug wash, shouted from the corridor “better off putting signs on things that “work” rather than “don't work” while trying to grab some water, “less signs” he added, as I sat at my post on sentry duty at despatch.
On Monday Miss Bickerdyke showed me some karate moves under the watchful eye of DA Miyagi.
On Tuesday I visited the Police Station after work to collect a Luke’s Phone (which had been stolen etc – its a story in itself!) – what utter chaos!
There was someone laid on the floor drunk, a west Indian lady was in tears at the desk as she told a long story of her threatening neighbour, a guy looked like he was just going to hang himself.
It looked like I would be there all night and rather than sit in a 3D version of East enders episode I went outside to grab one of the coppers and complain that I was only here to pick up a phone for my son!
I thought of going to “Gods Eye View” mode, at first it didn't work but eventually I started to feel how the poor girls at the desk felt, it was a hot muggy day and I just wanted to get home after a real grueller at The Monastery but she was stuck there presumably until the end of her shift.

So “DA Greyhound” looks like he is going to win, there are only two days left in June next week but its still possible that Potter will get that important extra load.
He's a very talkative but generous guy is Greyhound, this week he brought me a ham sarnie and a trifle and today he was celebrating his 54th birthday
I have spent another week white lining it to work on Street hawk and another weekend beckons to me starting with bowling tomorrow, I have enjoyed this week but the humidity has made it hard to sleep, the nights are getting shorter now, we passed the longest day on Monday.
So am I right thinking that those in southern hemisphere of the planet will all of had there shortest day on Monday?
Life feels generally good but sometimes tiring, both me and the teacher agreed today that in our job we have to “think” the most in our job first thing Morning or last thing Friday tying up all the figures.

I like the bowling newsletter, what a great read. Ants in the toilet, it must be the weather I guess. Do you know I wonder about what you are doing at least once a week. I think it is because I admire the way you live life to the full, doing lots of things and enjoying them. I think I could learn a lot from you're example.
Ants and a giant centipede. Hmmm.... I would have to agree that it must be either very dry there or hot. Ants come in when it is dry. I've gotten sugar ants before near the kitchen sink. Like the bowling pix.
Yech!! BUGS!
bugs in the toilet? now there's a good reason to take off work, hee heee heeeee.
i intensely dislike police stations. for all the good they're supposed to do, the scenes there are horrific at the best of times.
