Do you want cream with that sir?

(Posted 15:11:40 on 21st January 2008 by Mr O)
Ok so it's over two months since I've blogged, and yes I've seen a doctor and prunes have been prescribed.

So happy New Year, and a big apology two both of my regular readers for the lack of content recently. I'd love to put it down to being abducted by aliens or something, but it's a combination of too busy at work, a bit of can't be aresedness and lack of interesting things to say.

So onto the blog, the real reason for it is that I was doing a bit of research at work the other day and came across a competitor's website. Pretty run of the mill stuff, the usual things I'd expect to see until I stumbled onto the "recommend a friend" page, a bit unusual for a forex site, but even more unusual was the fact that you got a free gift for recommending a friend, a pot of clotted cream. I had to double check as this seemed a tad strange, but no it was true, for each friend you recommended to their website you got a free pot of clotted cream. Now obviously I would like to point you to this site, but that would be disloyal to my company, plus it's winter and strawberries are out of season.

Talking of doing double takes I had to do one in the supermarket the other night. I was walking past the display where the have the business cards for local merchants and services when one caught my eye. I thought it said 10% off slut hire, and although knowing that the supermarket was in a rough area of the city, I knew this couldn't be right as the normal discount is usually 25% off. Actually it was 10% off suit hire, but that was less interesting.

It is strange to note that I have chosen the most depressing day of the year to do my first blog in ages, but there you go.
Blue Monday (link removed as no longer active)

Right I'm off, have another quiz to compile to tax the bumpkins, so look for that on the site in the coming days.

Adios.
