First of all - what happened yesterday. I was called into work at 4pm due to their being a major network outage. I got in just before 5pm and had it all up and running within 10mins. I'm great, me!
Then had another call around 9pm saying that it was happening again, so I dialled in and checked it out. It was indeed happening again, but this time it was a different problem and I couldnt get up to Bristol, so they called Tim in. He called around 11.30pm to let me know it was working.
So, I was up at 6 this morning and just after Tim left I went for a 10 minute run around the estate. Got back home, had a shower, got dressed and caught the 6.53am train to Bristol.
Thats not a rant I here you cry, that a boring tale of bollocks! Yes, but now my rant starts.
So I get on the train and end up sat next to some bloke who is quietly reading his book. I get my Arrow Words puzzle book out and start to do that. Within 5 minutes however, I have got to the point where I want to stab the man next me and beat his head to a bloody pulp against the window.
Why?
He was chewing gum. Normally, not an odious thing - but this guy was doing it with his mouth open, along with sucking his lips as well. The amount of noise (and a disgusting noise at that) was incredible. I mean, for crying out loud - does he not realise how horrid it sounded? It was awful. By the end of the train journey, I had already planned how to kill him and dispose of the body, along with any witnesses (about 80 people). Aarrgghh!!!
