So, today, I not only had a Rustlers burger for my lunch, but I 'cooked' it in the air fryer.

I even flipped it halfway through, you slags. That's about as mucky as we get as a culture, right?

Like, stuff that people genuinely don't get outside your corner of the country. Hell, stuff people don't say outside your family/village/estate.

My personal favourite - 'on the drag' - I'm from Suffolk. Everybody says it when they're running late. I have overseas colleagues working here who've picked it up and say it. Nobody says it outside Suffolk, it turns out. As I discovered when I went to University(and I only went to university in bloody Essex).

'You could ride bare arsed to *place name here* on that' - used to describe something very blunt. My patternal grandad was a chippy. Used to describe particularly poorly maintained work gear.
As in - 'I was working wit ol Bomber Brown terday. Yew should sin his tools boy, could rode bare arsed to Bury on 'em. Took him hawf a bloody day ter cut fower planks'

'Fart in a trance' - something/someone very aimless which was something which in my family, anyway, came from my maternal Grandad who served in the navy during the wat. Apparently the original navy saying was 'like a fart in colander' which then mutated on his return to Suffolk.

Hit me up people.

>!....when Kumail started unbuttoning his shirt during the prize task. Nearly as mucky as Joana's 'appreciation' of Tom Jones.!<

Let's not kid ourselves. We nearly all work in buildings that are often uncomfortably warm in January so, be good to yourselves. Water bottles at your desks/drug tallies. Take your bloody breaks.

And tell patronising managers/infection control types to piss off if they try to tell you not to drink on the wards.

And remember - when assessing potentially dehydrated patients that insensible(ie sweat, exhaled water vapour, etc) losses can hit up to 800mls a day...

I can't say as I'm sad about this and amusingly enough, a Labourlist poll is suggesting that he'd lose a leadership contest against Starmer.

Who do we want then?
None of the current front bench are overly inspiring, Andy Burnham(currently not an MP) signed off on the disastrous privatisation of Hinchingbrooke hospital. There's got to be SOMEONE remotely competent and not obsessed with privatising the shit out of everything in that lot, surely?

Any way to do this? Anyone got any halfway pain-free workarounds?

I mean, I don't do many road trips nowadays but when I do drive for longer than 30 minutes or take the dog out for a good long walk, it'd would be nice to be able to just go from.....one album to another, as a surprise rather than the next one alphabetically or into an autoplay that invariably features half a dozen songs from the album I've just listened to.
