    Yeh, it was very tempting this morning with a forecast of hail and general shitty weather in wellywood. Would have been a great weekend to get out on the road but I fear that I will need polar attire

    I have just realised that I have 15 days of sick leave accrued and they are starting to take it off me. Anyone got anything nasty that will take me out for three weeks? I would prefer someting that doesn't itch

    Yep I did. Half a day today so I can drive here....

    Anybody riding south from Picton to Chch anytime after about 1pm friday, if you see a fella wave at you from a Silver Legacy GT headed north and loaded down with wife kids and general clutter, wave back, cause that'll be me.

    Yea I wish I could, but Im working all bloody weekend AGAIN
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Can I borrow some of your sick days?

    *dying slowly at work*

    I had Mon and Tues off this week due to this damn cold/flu that I can't get rid of, and now I've run out of sick days so I need to be here... it sucks

    DAMN YOU WINTER - YOU SUCK

    *sulks and continues to die slowly*

    I've heard if you go out drinking all Thursday night you can legitimately take a sick day on Friday!

    I will be lucky if I get my normal 2 days off (Sun, Mon) this week

    I hope that all of you lucky ones have a good one though.
