I'm talking about the hay fever fairy, who paid me a visit over the weekend. I hadn't really suffered with symptoms up until this point, but now I have the nose problem, the eye problem, the itchy throat problem... the bitch.
Apart from that, it was another quiet weekend. No sport on TV (boo) and not really too much money around at the moment to do too much.
Oh, we had a little barbecue for Sunday lunch - just some burgers and sausages - but why is it whenever I barbecue it smokes like a bastard? I do it properly, let the flames die down so you cook over heat not flame (this is important) but as soon as I put any food on the grill it's like I've just set fire to the whole of outdoors. It sucks. But the burgers were mm-mm terrific.
This week - I can't believe I'm in this situation at work again, but I have NO WORK to do. All my projects are done, (or waiting testing) and any work I might have to do I won't find out about until about 14.00 today when the U.S people get into the office. So this morning I can look forward to internet browsing and trying to look busy. It's no-one's fault, not even mine, but it sure does suck.
And, a week this Friday we go down to Cornwall for our 'boys weekend'. I seriously can't wait. Surfing, beer, good food, half decent company (ha, I'm kidding of course) and a weekend of just bein' a bloke.
Oh, and I burnt my fcuking head on Saturday training with Jake... I hate going bald.
Soundtrack of the day: The sound of my will to live slowly dribbling out of my ears as I sit here with no fcukin' work to do! Peace.

The Hayfever fairy has not left me alone for past three weeks, im so sick of feeling like complete crap, at this very moment my eyes are swollen/itchy/stinging, my nose is running/sneezing and I am breathless.
I even went to the doc's to see if they would give me some fexofenadine, which a couple of people at work are taking and it's meant to be really good, only on prescription too. And the buggers at the doctor's surgery wont give you it unless you have a serious allergic reaction.
God I hate this time of year :(
Anon. I feel your pain. But WHO IS THIS? I can't re-iterate this enough, names people, names...
I'm very lucky I don't suffer with Hayfever....
You must be doing the barbie wrong.... I barbied a joint of beef and it was divine....
Good food, good friends...the best way to spend a weekend...
It's Miss Wills :)
The reason you can't cook a bbq is that you're English.
Stick to mushy peas, pork pies and substandard fish n chips.
Get your passport renewed, buy a one way ticket to Perth and i'll hand you the tongs anytime mate.
BBQ + Mates + Beer = Good Times (yes in that order!)
Piss off with ya Aussie sentiments... its not fair making me this jealous when Im sat in this office with these people. Bastard.
Perth is an amazing city and I could live there..
Cottlesoe beach is one of my favourite beaches in the whole wide world.... I'm very jealous... Is the ocean beach hotel still there.
The little creatures brewery a good place for a pint or 10....
Simon if you put a hankey on yer head you could pretend to be Aussie...
Both pubs are still there and I have to say unfortunately I dont frequent them often enough!
Simon if you keep your anger at bay for 10 mins in the airport queue they might even let you through customs!
The beagle working there will sniff out your burned barbeque over the weekend and point you in the right direction.
: P
oh har fcukin' har Mrs Dawson!
Hayfever Fairy? I miss the days when she bopped me on the head with her weedy wand. Instead I was blessed by the "Allergic to 70 out of 72 allergens tested for including every plant, tree, grass, mold, and weed common to my state, plus my pets" fairy. Fuck you, mother nature.
