I'm getting that sinking feeling at work

While fetching my car out the back of work this afternoon I noticed that the engineers had set up an impromptu set of lanes with safety tape and a couple of Keep Left signs for good measure. My spirits lifted - did they just create an after work back carpark rally track?

Taking the work car out for a spin
Upon closer inspection...no. That's not the case...(bugger)

The reason for the taped off lanes and keep left signs? Well that'd be this then:


No it's not the remains of an 80's car fallen into a black hole, it's a spare tire one of the hard working engineers dragged over to stop people like me driving their 90's cars (namely me) into the mini sink hole that's opened up in the back car park.
To really point out that the area is best left avoided, they've created emergency lanes.

I'd heard whispers that there might be a couple of disused mine shafts lurking in the backyard but I didn't think there were ones for tiny dwarves dug right under the asphalt.

No where did I put my tiny light and pickaxe?

The true meaning of Flo Rida's song 'Whistle'..

The whistle song? What's it about? Read on! Controversial I know but I'm about to reveal the true meaning behind the Whistle song by Flo Rida. Why? Because I'm getting the general feeling that people around me are really missing the true spirit of Mr Rida's epic masterpiece... We're getting right into the real Flo, yo. After all this time, it's still all about that wisal baby song!

Please don't ignore this massage

It's been a while between scam emails - life has been life, work has been hectic, I've been grunting and sweating my way through my exercise sessions and so I've been putting responding to random idiots through my email on the back burner.  Until today when I was kindly asked not to 'ignore this massage.' I hope it's a hot stone one! Trust me, I NEVER ignore a massage. Better set the record straight then...

Last M.A.M.E standing part 1: Almigo has a plan

Yes I've decided to embark on my most ambitious project to date (well aside from changing a rocker cover gasket on a WRX, on a scale of what I can do that one was pretty ambitious) and build a fully functional arcade emulation machine for the back shed. Aka one of these bad boys. Probably not this one though.. Do I need a fully functional arcade emulation machine? No not really. Will I complete a fully functional arcade emulation machine? Well hopefully, that is the plan. Will I break things along the way? Undoubtedly, this is me we're blogging about. Am I in for a world of pain for doing this? Damn straight. Come join me, this should be fun...(ish)
