Eunos Chump

It's another view-from-a-hotel posting.  I've been stuck in London for the last 6 days, working all-hours to get a new office opened on time.  This is not very interesting, is it?  But I'll look back on it and think, yeah, I should really get a new job...

I've been on a H&S course today to allow me to work on building sites.  I now know the maximum permitted voltage for a work lamp in a damp area, and the minimum height of the handrail on a scaffold tower.  Yeah, be impressed. Monkeyboy got a load of Lego/Megabloks for Xmas, the construction of which has been sub-contracted to me (seeing as I'm now a certified expert).  I've only built the Halo Pelican drop-ship so far, that's taken several days... 6 more to go. Boy's main present was a Xbox, we've got them networked together so we can play all the Halo games co-operatively; check out the geekiness going on! "Foxtrot Tango 5 zero, we've got multiple inbound Covenent drop-ships, LZ is hot, over" "Roger that Bravo Chunky 6... ARGHH! You just killed me with the gravity hammer !"  

I've bought a diddy little digital video camera to stick on the bike, it's an eBay Chinese clone of a MD80 so only cost £10. It works surprisingly well, and it records sound too.  If only I'd had it with me when I got pulled by an unmarked police car on the M3 earlier today, for doing 98.68 MPH!  At least I'd have some decent footage in return for the £60 it's going to cost me :(
