Beancounting: September 2006
http://oboejane.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 29, 2006. To celebrate my birthday quarter drawing to a close (for future reference, my birthday quarter spans July to September), I treated myself to two new dvds from Amazon:. BBC version - another 5 hour epic to enjoy on "poorly days", when I've already watched P&P). Posted by OboeJane at 4:53 pm. Thursday, September 28, 2006. Email just in from Uzbekistan:. This week is like ticking off my last meals. Not sure yet - will update. Think I am meeting Everol for lunch. My favourite plac...

Beancounting: November 2005
http://oboejane.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 29, 2005. Not sure who left the comment on my last post (anyone? But I am perplexed as to how they think appearing in a porn mag perused by the boss could possibly be fast-track to career advancement? Admittedly, if they wanted to sack you for a sideline in boob-flashing it would be tricky. It has come to my attention.". You mean you were flicking through a porn mag, boss? Posted by OboeJane at 7:47 pm. Tuesday, November 15, 2005. Of course, the other rule is still my favourite:. Appare...

Beancounting: August 2006

Friday, August 25, 2006. My holidays are like buses. They are full of miserable-looking people and go nowhere fast? Erm, no. More in the "don't see one for ages, then three come along at once" kind of way. Posted by OboeJane at 4:55 pm. Wednesday, August 23, 2006. Posted by OboeJane at 4:16 pm. Tuesday, August 22, 2006. Posted by OboeJane at 1:45 pm. Monday, August 21, 2006. Not sure how my Vinopolis experience sits on the entertainment/economy scale. It cost 20 (although I think that may be a group ...

Beancounting: February 2006

Monday, February 27, 2006. Cat owning: ultimate selfishness? My dislike of cats increases every year. At this rate, I will wind up as a leather-faced old biddy living in sheltered accommodation leaving out rat poison for all the "beloved companions" and rubbing my arthritic hands in glee. Last year it was that ugly fat ginger cat that caught a collared dove in my back garden and ripped off its wing without actually killing it. Bleurgh. Posted by OboeJane at 3:18 pm. Friday, February 17, 2006. To Pall Mal...

Beancounting: December 2005
http://oboejane.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 28, 2005. I am hoping that, with Christmas safely behind us, Duracell will stop airing their stupid radio adverts. You know the ones - with the leering voiceover suggesting that Duracell "just keeps banging away - know wot i mean? Yeah, yeah, ad-boys. We get it. Long-life batteries for your childrens toys / immense sexual stamina). Is this gross, or what? Posted by OboeJane at 3:52 pm. Monday, December 19, 2005. We won't go until we've got some. Posted by OboeJane at 8:47 pm. First th...

Beancounting: May 2006
http://oboejane.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 10, 2006. Of course, with tragic inevitability I missed out on watching Victoria Sponge and Cupcake - since I'm still at work. Posted by OboeJane at 11:11 pm. Well past my bedtime. Much excitement tonight, as I am going to see the beautiful Victoria Sponge and her Cupcake perform in a heat of Drag Idol. However, the heat starts at 11pm. On a schoolnight. These caberet ladies obviously have robust constitutions. Posted by OboeJane at 4:00 pm. Monday, May 08, 2006. Is it a boy thing? Someone...

Beancounting: June 2006
http://oboejane.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 05, 2006. Always wear a cycle helmet. Ok, ok, so not in the shower, or at the cinema, or round at your mum's house. But when on your bicycle it is highly recommended. Glenn came off his bike today. For once, he was wearing his cycle helmet. This is a recent development for him, only brought about by one of his workmates seeing someone knocked down and killed the other day. Sadly, it was not Glenn's well-cushioned noggin that hit the deck (but don't take that as justification not to wear one).

Beancounting: April 2006

Tuesday, April 04, 2006. Just a quickie, cos I'm out on site at the moment, but I just had to boast about my supreme achievement at the Questars adventure race on Saturday. In case you've been fortunate enough to avoid it, adventure racing consists of trail running, mountain biking and kayaking for many hours, in search of little electronic markers. In the hope of winning a pair of socks and the applause of a roomful of rangy SAS-alikes. What are we looking for? That's not a path! View my complete profile.

Beancounting: October 2005
http://oboejane.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 29, 2005. I still don't appear to be any good at this. Orienteering near Chichester, with the blue and yellow-clad Southdowns Orienteers. Usual assortment of wild-eyed, mad-haired people in distressingly tight legwear, including one in strange psychadelic patterned lycra. Here are my key stats:. Number of over-60s that beat me: THREE. Slip-slide trouser-muddying experiences: ONE. Bramble scratches on legs: ABOUT 50. Posted by OboeJane at 7:54 pm. Thursday, October 27, 2005. 2) We don't ...
