Father’s Day

My parents are on holiday in the USA for the next three weeks, which means that they’re away for Father’s Day, so we’ve bought cards and have given them to our mum to give to dad on the day.

I like my card. It has a black and white photo of a thoughful-looking middle-aged guy on the front with the caption “Dad had finally got himself an email address and a webcam. Now all he had to do was work out how to turn the computer on.”

Inside, I’ve written the standard ‘Happy Father’s Day, Love Mark’ message, but on the inside cover, I’ve written:

“Just to let you know, we decided to have a party at the house while you guys were away.

We only invited a few friends, but it seemed like half the town showed up!

The good news is that everyone seemed to have a really good time.

The bad news is that the front door is missing, the garage roof has a huge hole in it and the police haven’t found your car yet.

Other than that, everything is fine here.

Hope you guys are having a great time!

Love,

Mark”

I can’t wait until he opens it.

The laugh and the camera shake at the end make this even better.

This is seriously a photo of me as a kid standing beside a chimpanzee next to a swimming pool.  It was taken in Spain somewhere in the early 80s.  I don’t actually remember it.

Reinforcing the vending machine hate, a friend tried to buy a Twirl today.  The machine dropped the bar, but it bounced off the glass/top of the flap’s hinge and bounced back onto the top of the food on the bottom rack.
I wish I could have actually been there to see this happen.

A telephone conversation I had today.

  • Me: Hello.
  • Them: Hi, it's Dave from the van rental place.
  • Me: Errr...hi?
  • Them: Yeah, it's about the van you're renting this weekend.
  • Me: Sorry mate, you've got the wrong number.
  • Them: Is this xxxxxx?
  • Me: Yeah, that's my number, but I'm not renting any van.
  • Them: Well, this is the contact number on the form.
  • Me: Okay, but this has got nothing to do with me. I'm not renting a van this weekend.
  • Them: Are you sure?
  • Me: Yes!
  • Them: Okay, so what's your name?
  • Me: Why?
  • Them: It's about the van you're renting.
  • Me: Yeah, I'm not renting any van. You've got the wrong number.
  • Them: Okay, so what's your name?
  • Me: Nah, mate. I don't know who you are.
  • Them: It's Dave. From the van rental place.
  • Me: Alright then. Bye. *click*

“See, I’m a dreamer, man, and when I was a cook I’d always work with people who weren’t dreamers. Like, I was cooking at this restaurant and I put a hot dog on the grill and my kitchen manager came over, and he said, ‘Mitch, put the hot dog up here, in the right-hand corner of the grill, so in case you get a whole bunch of orders at once you have all this space available.’ See that’s how I knew he wasn’t a dreamer, because the day I give up my dreams is the day I have strategic grill locations.  A dreamer has a philosophy: the entire grill is hot.”

Mike Jr was seriously going to kill Mr Smith from next door if he didn’t stop interrupting him and his dad on their morning walk.

The candy machine in our breakroom is a jerk.

The machine in our place must be related to it.  Bastard owes me 50p.
