It's our one on Monday and I have to say I'm not looking forward to it. We go to the same place every year, on the same day, at the same table and eat the same food. At the end of the meal they'll be a 'disco' laid on by the restaurant with the same tape they play every year and the traditional plate smashing.
The only way to get through the night is to get pissed. Even Nance won't come with me this year cos it's a Monday night
Humbug  |

Aye, this year we are going bowling.
Plan B for me and a colleague is go to the bar and buffet bit but skip getting roped into doing any "team spirit" building bowling and making a ahsarp exist to another pub.  |

I got a meal with the mob I have the early Friday meetings with - that's on the 13th at some restaurant, forget which one. Could go to another on Monday but I've left that a bit late, prolly not.
I'm making an effort with Christmas this year, I was a miserable cow last year. Not yet though. Still too early innit  |

actually Polonium-210 can't be detected with a Geiger counter as it emits Alpha rays, a Geiger counter only meausres Gamma rays.
SO NER! [/geek] |

| Indeed. It's also worth noting that the maximum allowable body burden for ingested polonium is only 1,100 Bq (0.03 microcurie), which is equivalent to a particle weighing only 6.8 picograms. The maximum permissible concentration for airborne soluble polonium compounds is about 7,500 Bq/m3 (2 × 10-11 µCi/cm3). The biological half-life of polonium in humans is 30 to 50 days.[23] The target organs for polonium in humans are the spleen and liver.[3] As the spleen (150 g) and the liver (1.3 to 3 Kg) are much smaller than the rest of the body, if the polonium is concentrated in these vital organs, it is a greater threat to life than the dose which would be suffered (on average) by the whole body if it were spread evenly throughout the body, in the same way as cesium or tritium (as T2O).

| My work had a christmas do it was rubbish, we (my department) went out and spent too much money on a crap meal and then stood in a crowded pub last Friday, then on Wednesday when we finished we had a meal in the canteen and the boss talked at us for about an hour and half and me and my boss kept inserting the word paedophile into her sentances such as "terry has been with us for 25 yrs and what a lot of people don't know is that Terry is a very keen.... (paedophile)" or, I know there are a lot of (paedophiles) here today" which at least prevented me from dying of boredom... |
