Unnerving smile

Not quite the work post that I hinted at earlier, or you were screaming for, but we're getting closer.
Now I don't strictly work in a customer-facing job so it's not something I have to worry about, but there are people at my workplace, the company HQ, that do speak with outsiders, with tenants (I work for a housing association). I may have mentioned this before when I went into the bank to get a loan and after sitting down with a lady to do the application, fill out all the paperwork, I went to leave and we shook hands and she said "It was nice to meet you" and I was literally disarmed, I stopped in my tracks and didn't know how to react (although not unusual for me).

The posts that never were ( = Content!)

Along with digging through old posts, I found some old drafts that I started but never flourished, never matured into full-fledged posts. As mentioned in the previous post, I found it fascinating to read the kind of stuff I was writing a couple years back so I'm going to post them here for analysis. Some were particularly time specific, so don't make any sense here, although interesting my F1 post going on about Lewis Hamilton outshadowing Jenson and how now he will never get a chance to challenge for the world title, can't always be right :)

The archives are interesting

That's true I think. For some reason I found myself looking at Google Analytics for this blog - it's always interesting to see how people stumble here and what they decide to look at. That being said I believe most people that go here are people I know in the real world, or fans of Bottom and drinking. Yes, that's right, one of my most popular posts is my Bottom Drinking Game - a game of drinking to the British TV Show Bottom (it is literally middle-aged Young Ones).
Anyways, I fell down the rabbit-hole revisiting some old posts which others had been checking out and it's made me want to blog again, so I shall try!
