My manager and the butchers have been implying they'll do something to me at the end of the day, I walked out the cash office and out the door and looked around while everyone had their phone out looking at me, then all of a sudden my manager just pours a huge bag of flour over my head

Yeah, I've got my halls sorted, and I'm going on a big ikea shop tomorrow, which should be fun.

Hey I had my last day on friday and didnt get any special treatment
then again I worked at Howdens so I'd probably just get a nice big larder cabinet thrown at me
[QUOTE=cr2142;51029384]Yeah my accommodation is fucking me off a little, they needed a photo of me as well as a signed document which they forgot to send to me until yesterday, so I filled it out and took a picture of myself, they were fine with the picture but said the document can just be a "picture of the signed document" so I sent them a photo from my phone with the signatures but they haven't replied
hoping that its just because they are closed on weekends. Also registration is looking like a a pain in the ass, gotta fill out a huge registration form online for my uni, using stuff like term accommodation addresses and stuff which I haven't even received yet[/QUOTE]
for online enrolment my term time address was just my home address until it came to face-to-face enrolment, by that time I had the accommodation sorted so I just changed the term time address before going to physically enrol, dunno if your uni is similar in any way

Your thumbs man
Still not sure what to do regarding my phone contract, so far my signal with Virgin Media has never achieved 4G since they don't provide it yet but I get 1000 minutes, unlimited texts and data a month for about £21.50, alternatively there's Three which offer the same for £23 and supposedly have a good signal but there's only 200 minutes which may be a little short. Any suggestions? Even thought about trying Giffgaff but I've heard too much bad about them.
It was my last day doing crowd control at a charity event, 3 days out in the sun and my face is on fucking fire. Good few days though, told a random woman in the queue if she moved any slower I was going to Taze her and she went "Oooh, I'd like that".
Though that was pretty mild compared to one of the volunteers who left saying "Bye, I'm off get dinner and fuck a stranger". September is apparently a free for all in this city... must be all the goddamn students.
I also discovered my cars brake fluid had leaked out while I was working, so I had to drive home with no brakes. Great fun.

I'm on the 'billy no-mates contract' aka pay as you go with EE.
But in all seriousness I rarely use my phone now. I get such shit reception anywhere I go, I just find it easier to send a fb message or email when I hit a wifi spot. My parents use bt internet so I can use their login code for free.

wait for the morning bud, dont bother getting yourself banned for PUI
which in all fairness should be legal in this thread considering we have a couple of scotsmen/northerners, in which their blood stream is clogged with special brew and newcy brown
if PUI is against the rules then just ban me now.

i don't think i've been sober for over 3 weeks
[editline]12th September 2016[/editline]
while i'm photographing freshers week for a ancient scottish university, i saw someone from 3 years below at school telling someone outside our venue about the different names for cocaine, with a fag in one hand and mouthing abuse at me when i challenged her calling coke gear (any drugs are gear, from my understanding). i then received about 5 slurred texts (i didn't realise it was possible to slur written words) asking me to go home with her.
god bless freshers wouldn't change it for the world
also a guy got a single bollock out with a guy from geordie shore, i've no idea why this wasn't the most important story.
Purple Aki has his own show on BBC Iplayer I don't fucking believe it.
"The Man Who Squeezes Muscles"
Gah it's reaching the point where all my mates are back at uni and im left stranded in bloody Dorset, which is shit because there's no underground rave scene here.

Can confirm gear normally refers to any drugs but I do know people who call exclusively refer to coke as gear

Dave Lamb better narrate it.

They haven't even owned the brand for a day and they've already fucked it up.
A prediction posted in a Whatsapp group by myself;
C4 will find increasingly weirder people each season, bringing them in entirely based on their "weirdness" rather than capacity as bakers. This will continue for around 8 years until they realise nobody has been watching it for the last 5 years. The rights to the show will be sold off to Channel 5.

i don't even give a fuck about the cancer bit. if they're going to use it, at least a minuscule fraction of the profit might help somebody.
but fucking celebrities straight away? brutally remorseless.
exactly. they saw a profitable market, and thought celebrities, to maximise viewers. not long until it becomes x-factor 2.0

To be fair, bake off has been done with celebrities multiple times in the past with the Sports Relief Bake Offs (3 series of 4 episodes) and the Comic Relief ones (2 series of 4)
