And in lighter news, two young men in Swansea, Wales were caught on CCTV cameras verbally abusing two drag-queens. When they wanted to escalate from verbal to physical abuse, they were promptly wrestled to the ground and beaten up by the drag-queens.

I laughed myself silly when I saw the story.

Bet those guys won't be telling that story at their local pub.

I thought it was a nice addendum to the "would you tell your friends if you'd been mugged by a girl" discussion we had some time ago...

I was ridin' 'long the trail to Santa Fe...
When I met a purty gal along the way...
I said 'Ain't we met before?'...
Then she drew her .44...
So I tipped my hat and slowly rode away...

Finished for the weekend

And I've just gone to put some leave in, and to my shock I have discovered exactly how many days leave I've got left for this year.

Somehow, between now and the end of March I've got to squeeze in 23 days leave

And that'll still leave me with 15 days to add to next year

I should get it before the end of the month. Wasn't the due date sometime in early December, or am I mis-remembering?

Well it might be a wierd (or even weird) European lamaze excercise, but we're British dontcher know old boy

It is maternity leave, but seeing as maternity is quite a long word to type out I didn't want to have to type the whole of maternity out so I thought I'd shorten it to mat, assuming that everyone would know it's short for maternity.

Thanks for indulging us off worlders. We don't gestate our young, so it is quite bizarre to see your blokettes toting progeny around for so long.

I still maintain that it's worth the 18 years of hassle I'll get just so that I can get Christmas and New Year off for the first time since I left training

Or we'll have declared war on each other in some sort of sci-fi-esque misunderstanding.
