The General Conversation Area

I also love the snow and not just because I get to stay at home from work but still get paid either :p It was funny as my boss phoned me today telling me not to bother going is as we wern't opening, I looked out the window and was like "pfft, it's no even bad..." and then at about 2 looked out my window like "wtf, where did all that come from?".

I hope it keeps up and we get plenty more of it, and again not just to avoid work...honest.
 
I have a question. If someone’s following you on here and you follow them back.... does that mean you’re going around in circles?

You're already getting to deep and philosophical for this time of day dude XD

How are we? :)
 
But it’s things like these that drive me crazy!


I’m good and you?

But your crazy enough Phobos and you don't need philosophy to add to it ;)

Yeah I'm not too bad thanks dude, had a pretty chilled day (pardon the pun). We had some contractors here earlier (a bunch of Kyuubeys :p).

To try to keep it short, we were in need of a new fence at the bottom of our garden. It's been an ongoing battle with the council since last summer - when will they actually turn up? When they turn up they don't have the parts, council saying they've been when they haven't, the usual stuff. My Mum had been on their case, asking them to actually PHONE when they intend to turn up, you know, like a courtesy call, because they decided to turn up out of the blue last week when we weren't in. So, one last time, a plea from my Mum to get them to PHONE to make sure we're in, and what do they do? Just turn up out of the blue, yesterday, to start work on the fence. In the SNOW of all weather, despite them saying last summer (when this whole ordeal started), that they wouldn't know when they'd be able to start the work because winter will be here soon and it can be so unpredictable!

IDIOTS XD
 
Bloody hell. Why can't people in charge of organising stuff ever seem to be able to, you know, organise stuff.

How do, all.

This is the thing, someone, somewhere, just isn't communicating information. Plus, they just contradict themselves! It's done now, and they've done a decent job as it goes...

But it's the PRINCIPLE! XD

Have you had a McFlurry of snow today @Neil.T ?
 
I'm still laughing at that!

Yeah, it's been on and off again here. Still quite piled up.

Did you get out for a walk or anything today?

Hee hee heeeee! Ah, I did a funny XD

Same here, it's been quite blustery too. I thought about going out, but I left it for today. I'll likely see how it is tomorrow. How was work? (if you were in today, of course) ^^

Mmm, yeah. Same here. We had a bit of a mini-blizzard earlier in the day!

No work for me today; day off. 🙂
I was watching some episodes of Space Patrol Luluco on Crunchyroll, and also an episode of the infamous Pop Team Epic. Oh, and the problem with Google Photos on my phone has miraculously fixed itself, so... a good day all round!

Plus I've managed to get my data to last the month without having to miss out on General Conversation shenanigans! 😄

Neil, do you like...actually work? :p

*Hides*

I'm glad you're well and you've had a good day :) Also, glad your phone is functioning as it should again. I'm actually surprised your data hasn't run out, I remember you saying that you would need to wait until tomorrow, but, you've managed to make it last somehow! Well, you did go to the cinema a couple of nights in a row, and you know how Phobos likes to take advantage of your absence with a tagging party...soooo, whilst you didn't have to reply as such you did have to slog through 113 notifications one night...

Yeah, I literally finished the last 4 eps of YOI earlier. There was only 12 eps so not too much of a mental slog to get through (since I'm rubbish at committing to anything these days)...but, I guess I can go at my own pace and just watch things as and when I feel like it.

Well I've certainly gotten brain freeze. Getting to Uni was an ordeal of waiting for a train to leave for around 30 minutes. Luckily I've managed to get a train homeward bound but on this occasion the snow has just hindered my work progress (needed to film today for my course and Almost didn't make it.)

Aw man that's a pain :( As much as I enjoy aspects of snowy weather (the aesthetical aspects), I certainly don't enjoy the impracticalities, especially as, like you, I have to rely on public transport right now. I hope you manage to get some filming done soon though!

Yeah we filmed today, need to edit tomorrow assuming things don't get worse. I think having cold feet was the worst thing about it, I'm just hoping I can claim a bit of a refund with that delay repay system Greater Anglia have.

This is the thing with this type of weather, you want it to go away, but you don't know if it will just keep getting worse. Around my area, the gritters generally keep the main roads clear, so busses at least can stick to the main routes if they can't literally get round the houses. But, every area is different, and if you live out in the sticks it's much more awkward.
 
Neil, do you like...actually work? :p

*Hides*
Only when it can't be avoided! 😜

Yeah, with a site like Crunchyroll with so much to watch, you can just pick away it at your own pace. Have you seen @NormanicGrav's massive Legal Streaming thread, btw?https://forums.animeuknews.net/threads/legal-streaming-every-anime-available-for-the-uk-ireland-online.41/
It's really handy. It lists what's on CR (Crunchyroll) and others.

As for the data thing, I have to admit that I totally misread my using figure earlier in the month: it was 2.08 GB, but I read it as 2.8 GB. I'm crap with numbers. Hence dropping out of Higher-grade maths! 😅

Haha, that made me laugh! Not a total slacker then ;)

I've not seen Grav's list actually, but worth a check out sometime ^^

Oh Neil XD Well, you and me both. I got a D at G.C.S.E, but managed a C when I resat the exam at college. I had a much better, nicer, and more competent teacher than the witch that taught me for the whole 5 years of my high-school tenure.

I hate numbers though...and numbers hate me!
