Bull

An American touring Spain stopped at a local restaurant following a day of sightseeing. While sipping his sangria, he noticed a sizzling, scrumptious looking platter being served at the next table. Not only did it look good,the smell was wonderful.

He asked the waiter, "What is that you just served?" The waiter replied, "Ah senor, you have excellent taste! Those are bull's t e s t i c l e s from the bull fight this morning. A delicacy!" The American, though momentarily daunted, said, "What the hell, I'm on vacation! Bring me an order!"

The waiter replied, "I am so sorry senor. There is only one serving per day because there is only one bull fight each morning. If you come early tomorrow and place your order, we will be sure to save you this delicacy!"

The next morning, the American returned, placed his order, and then that evening he was served the one and only special delicacy of the day. After a few bites, and inspecting the contents of his platter, he called to the waiter and said..."These are delicious, but they are much, much smaller than the ones I saw you serve yesterday!"The waiter shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Si senor. Sometimes the bull wins."

Master Taj

Well, after all the work, the results are finally in, and I have got my MSc dissertation results!! I got a B, which therefore means I have now got my MSc in Commercial Computing. I can now put another 3 letters after my name, that no-one - apart from employers - cares about. Its a good feeling, that I am now about to close the door on my studying life. After 20 years of schooling, I can now look forward to a blissful life....working!?! Great!?!

I just have to share this, because its genius!!........

so theres this family of balloons, mummy balloon, daddy balloon and their
kid. one day, they say, "baby balloon youre not allowed to come sleep in
mummy and daddys bed again from now on.

during the night the baby balloon approached mummy and daddy baloons bed and
tried to get in, but he couldnt..so he let a little bit of air out of mummy
balloon and tried to climb in...still not enough room.so he let out a little
air from daddy balloon. there stil wasnt enought room. In the end , baby
balloon did something dangerous and let a little air out from himself. in
the end, he managed to fit in the bed and went to sleep.

in the morning, mummy and daddy balloon woke up and were both disappointed.
Daddy balloon woke up baby and said..
"not only did you let your mother and me down, most of all, you let yourself
down"

Amsterdam....here i come

Well, after all the planning (4 days), after all the thinking (5-10 mins), after all the hotel finding (1 day) I am going to be off to Amsterdam in the first week of August. For 4 days I will get Amsterdam fever, (and hopefully, no other disease!!!). Just me and my cousin are going so it should be a good laugh.

Now, Amsterdam, is a great city, because of its parks, museums and coffee shops, but does anybody else know what I could do there. It has beaches nearby too which could be a possibility. I can't possibly think of anything else to do there......does anybody have any ideas?? Obviously I am going there for the zoo, and the museums!! There couldn't be any other reason, could there?? (Mua Ha Ha).

ICE

Following the disaster in London East AnglianAmbulance Service have launched a national "In case of Emergency ( ICE)" campaign with the support of Falklandswar hero Simon Weston and in association with Vodafone's annual life savers award. The idea is that you store the word " I C E " in your mobile phone address book, and against it enter the number of the person you would want to be contacted "In Case of Emergency".

In an emergency situation ambulance and hospital staff will then be able to quickly find out who your next of kin are and be able to contact them. It's so simple that everyone can do it. Please do. Please will you also forward this to everybody in your address book, it won't take too many 'forwards' before everybody will know about this. It really could save your life.
For more than one contact name ICE1, ICE2, ICE3 etc

As a wise man once said.....

"Silence is easy...It is easier not to blog, so well done to people who blog however busy they are at the time".

As you may have noticed, I haven't updated my blog for a while now. Due to other issues, and being very busy at work I have been a bit slack, but now....I'M BACK!!!

I will leave you with these quotes:

"If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definetely isn't for you!"

and

"Somewhere on this globe, every ten seconds, there is a woman giving birth to a child. She must be found and stopped".

Agreed?
