    Started off the day with a poltics exam (9am on a monday - not my finest hour), but other than that day seemed to be alright.

    Re: Most depressing day of the year

    Today had a radiator removed in the house for the room to be replastered. The guy who took it off forgot to cap it and we started using the heating again for a geyser to appear in the room..

    Furthermore we've had our shed broken into and countless bits and pieces aswell as 3 bike stolen.

    Oh and i spent 30minutes removing a Snickers wrapper I had stuck in the printer and have a bruised hand as a consequence

    A good day it is

    I found £10 on the way to the lab today.

    So great for me, but depressing for the sod who lost a tenner!

    Well it started ok, but then sorta went downhill this afternoon.

    nothing drastic... just a spanner in the works when you don't need one!
