2008 is wonderful, I feel like bursting into some jovial song similar to 'Jingle Bells'

[The Moan Ranger]

Not too bad so far, but I will let you know after the "big" announcement in the office on Thursday. With any luck, the date of my redundancy will be brought forward. Hopefully by a lot!

Evenin' all. Mine (New Year) was going fine until about 90 minutes ago when we had a power cut 

Or power outage / failure / stoppage, or whatever is the current euphemism 

Total blackness, silence, apart from the smoke alarms squeaking at me every 30 seconds or so. Reminds me that I am totally and utterly reliant on electricity 

So what does your computer run on then? Gas?

P'raps he's using lap-top with a charged battery in it (instead of vomit). Telephones lines are usually unaffected by local power cuts so the technology of communication does enable posting duting a power failure.

Not even a little one... please...?  .....la la lalla

1 eye-popping estimate for more roof repairs

Can we expect to hear you have another estimate on the way?

A practice bomb has gone missing from an aircraft on a routine training flight in Lincolnshire.
Ministry of Defence (MoD) officials believe the bomb was lost by a Harrier from RAF Wittering flying to the Holbeach drop zone.

A ground search of the flight path was ongoing on Tuesday night and police have been informed.

Anyone finding the light blue practice bomb with brown tape around the bottom of it should contact police.

'Small explosive'

The RAF said it was "highly likely" it had landed harmlessly in the sea or on land within the drop zone, but the possibility of it falling into land outside the target area could not be discounted.

An RAF spokesman said: "We are very aware of the risks of flying and safety remains one of our highest priorities.

"An investigation has been convened to determine the cause of the bomb's release.

"A small amount of explosive is contained in the device - roughly in comparison with a commercial firework."

I just have an image Nick Towers with a practice bomb sticking out of the roof  now

Come friendly bomb. At least the insurance would pay up then
