Not really. You might get an occasional fishy whiff when a taxi or bus goes by but it's no stronger than what you'd sense if you asked past your local fishmongers. There's so many cafes and restaurants you mostly smell delicious food.

learnincurve posted:What you have to do while you are there is sit outside a cafe in st mark's square and have a Coca Cola with ice and lemon in it, costs an absolute fortune but Italian Coca Cola is the absolute best in the world and the idea of sub par lemons is an affront to them. I had a beer in St Mark's shortly after arriving. Following up with a Bellini in Harry's Bar a few hours later, I don't think I could afford a Coke anywhere without applying for a bank loan. e: I got twatted in the face by a little Chinese lady waving a selfie stick around as I was getting off a bus earlier.

Saw SPECTRE yesterday. Good film but a few things bugged me about it... unfortunately can't explain why without Spoiling everything. :/

Dysgenesis posted:Casino Royale was good. The remainder of the Daniel Craig bonds have been awful. I'm going to standby my earlier statement of it being a good film. Now... good does not mean OMGWTFBBQAMAZEBALLS. Its a fun film to watch on a lazy Sunday afternoon when its pissing down with rain and you just remembered all your mates are too busy to hang out because they have to look after their kids (which hey, that's actually a good thing and drat me if I'm gonna stop them spending time with their kids). It is very, very typical bond though. The twists can be seen coming a mile off and I found myself watching it and thinking, "Oh we're doing this bit of the, "How to Bond" manual are we?" Still fun in parts, but I wouldn't recommend rushing out to see it unless you're quite attached to the Bond franchise. Oscar Romeo Romeo fucked around with this message at 19:45 on Nov 10, 2015 |

Yay. I woke up at 4am with a sudden urge to be violently sick all over the place. After a miserable clean up operation I went back to bed shivering. Woke up later with a fever, terrible throat, headaches and more phlegm than a garbage pale kid.

Went to the doctor's and was confirmed I've caught a virus. Yeah great, I know, I told you that when I got here. What I wanted to know was what's the deal with my leg feeling ice cold for no reason every few minutes over the last few days? "Oh that's just an environment thing".

Squalitude posted:What's your major malfunction, and do you get full sick pay? Throat infection. Yes. I was expecting to be off for two or maybe three more days from today but when asked what I do for a living my doctor signed me off longer as she didn't want me to risk going back too early and possibly making it worse. I've been locked in the house for a week already and starting to do my nut in. e: I did have fun in the waiting room after terrifying a small child who saw me cough up a little blood.

There's a group of man children on Judge Rinder arguing over Dark Souls. Just let that settle in. Two man-babies have taken a third man-baby to court over a loving computer game bet.

I was feeling ok last night so figured gently caress the doc's sick note and go back to work early. Then I woke up today feeling poo poo again and coughed up a lung. I'm starting to get cabin fever here. Happy Birthday sausie man.

Welp, I just had a phone call from a young lady I've been texting on and off for the last few weeks. She's poo poo housed and said she phoned just to hear what my voice was like, then followed up with a fair amount of flirting. Gotta say, quite a nice way to cap off a late turn at work.

Bozza posted:lol yep, we'll just make the trains longer this will not be an issue at all We just had a new station built nearby with longer platforms because the previous one (which was pretty bloody long) couldn't accommodate current train lengths. Get off of carriage eight at the old station and you'd face plant into a bush, then roll down a fairly steep hill.

Whorelord posted:I'm collecting money for a domestic abuse charity you heartless oval office Sadly Waitrose will kindly ask you to move along if you aren't one of their three nominated charities for that month. Vitamins posted:the only thing waitrose is better for is farming looks of derision and hatred from people that make 100x your yearly wage or their husband does Former JLP partner here (worked in both Waitrose and John Lewis for six years) and can confirm JLP pay really isn't great. Its not rubbish, the yearly bonus helps, but the pay certainly isn't in the highest for retail in the UK. I will say though, if you're going to work in retail JLP's not a bad enterprise to work for.

Finished work, no traffic on the way home, four days off for Christmas and noticed a pile of bottle shaped presents wrapped up with my name on the tags under the tree when I got home. This is a good sign.

Pistol_Pete posted:lol @ anyone who shells out a quarter of a million quid for a box of bricks with water and electricity piped in. Quarter mil are you mental? I saw a lovely little church that had been converted into two maisonette's, each going for £125,000 freehold a month ago and thought to myself, "after Christmas". Stupidest loving thing I've ever done. Naturally they both sold within a week.

DOWN JACKET FETISH posted:Why does everyone always act as though moving to another area of the UK is something on a par with changing mobile providers, and not a massive upheaval Previous career I wouldn't be so shy of doing that, in fact I did do that many moons ago. Now I'm kind of tied down to this county because of the new career but I'm not adverse to moving anywhere within a reasonable commute. Houseboats are starting to look really awesome.
