The Owl clan wrecking another car

Well at least it wasn't as bad as your last car. Be thankful you guys haven't had your bikes wrecked in the same manner I've had some pricks knock my last bike and take off.

You can leave my good name out of it!

I had my last bike knocked over too, but they didn't get the chance to run.

Sign of the times, I laid off 4 staff about a week ago. Thankfully i gave them plenty of notice and one of them found another job and i managed to find jobs for two of the others, so just one jobless but that was always gonna be the case with this young fella.

Not mint either Meanie!

For the first time ever this week, I've taken some annual leave solely because we're quiet.
Still, I think my job is safe as no-one else knows how to switch on the kettle.

yep definitely sign of the times. We have had to lay off our temps which is not good. This is usually the time we start hiring extra.
