Without wanting to criticise him in any way, I just don't think his focus is on the written word at all
nor on anything particularly intellectual

That's why I like him, he's without pretention of any kind

He's sports-minded, taking qualifications to be a fitness instructor, plays poker online, supports local football team,
goes out clubbing with his friends
- he just has an almost opposite mindset to this type of site basically ie this site is more about thinking than doing

I suspect many of us are more about thinking than doing.  :-\

half asleep is fine.

that means you won't be sharp.  (as sharp)

that way the other members will have a fighting chance with you. 

too bad i am not feeling sharp, or i would take advantage of you. :o

What's wrong?  Do you have a cold?

No, I just woke up feeling really sick/out of sorts - haven't actually been sick tho

Unfortunately it's going to look like a real skive to people at work/my parents as:-

a) my parents weren't here to give me my usual lift to work

b) I was meant to see the Support Service Counsellor at 8.00am (I was never going to get there under my own steam anyway!)

c) My 'colleague' is off today also so we would be short staffed in the office and it was v stressful for me yesterday

   - I swore at someone over the phone thinking it was the 2nd silent/crank call in a row but it was just someone's phone on the blink whereby they could hear us but not be heard.  I said 'Are you taking the f-ing piss?!' 

Just my luck that this gets reported back to our departmental manager!  He said to my line manager 'If people get silent calls, can they say to the caller 'I can't hear you, I'm putting the phone down now' instead of  'Are you taking the f-ing piss'

LOL  he never said a word to me tho
- perhaps he just put me on the 'Make redundant at first opportuity' list   ::)

It all looks like a skive but unless my body had magically created a 'sick feeling' to order, it's not!

No, the whole world 'takes the piss' in terms of annoying me on a bad day!

I never said that

I'm getting confused - what exactly are you trying to say?

perhaps it's the language barrier?  ;)
