Meenzer 15379 Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Just woke up. Full day's work ahead though, including the magical customer who sets a deadline of one hour on a piece then calls up every five minutes to ask if it's finished yet. Fella's meant to be flying to Heathrow from Serbia tonight. Good luck to him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44325 Posted December 22, 2006 Author Share Posted December 22, 2006 Bloody hell Meenzer, he might be having a very Serbian Christmas and a Serbian Neeeeewwwww Yeeeeearrrr if the reports are anything to go by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 No fog in the Toon or Belfast so far. Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 15379 Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Indeed! He's flying with Swiss via Zurich rather than BA, which improves his chances, but we'll see. If it's a comfortable-hotel-in-Switzerland Christmas and New Year, well, that could be worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonraider 0 Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Break? Christmas break? What the hell is that then?

luckyluke 2 Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Bloody hell Meenzer, he might be having a very Serbian Christmas and a Serbian Neeeeewwwww Yeeeeearrrr if the reports are anything to go by. He'd have to be really unlucky for that as Serbian (Orthodox) Christmas isn't til the 7th of January. But I agree with the sentiment, hope it clears up in time Meenzer.

Might not be the Empire State but it does have some architectural merit. Plus it improves the skyline. We havent got a river or bridges or owt like that so it's a welcome addition. Blatant scouse-o-phile, anti-manc instincts on display there btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatant scouse-o-phile, anti-manc instincts on display there btw. I think it's just the way it stands out on its own. To have a decent sky line you need at least half a dozen sky scrapers in close proximity, imho. I actually think Manchester is OK as a city, but its flatness and number of brownfield sites close to the centre are negative points. I do prefer Liverpool tbh, naturally.
