I,m back from my anger management weekend (see last post). The councillor was a liberal git so I twatted him and now I have no pent up anger at all. Marvelous. Thanks to Bill for the email about what he thinks about the council. I did reply to him asking if I could publish his four-letter tirade in this post but he didn't get back to me time so I won't (angry man, very angry man). As to the council and the problem I was having with my Council Tax bill going awry, I went down to the offices at Marmion House to sort it out. I got a bill printed out for me after a while and was told that they'd been into their records and surprise, surprise, my address does't actually exist. There is a simple reason for this I calmly explained. "A few years ago I changed my name by Deed Poll to Diogenes and I actually live in a fucking barrel you stupid bollocks!" As to to the progress of this week's quiz, I have the caricatures ready for printing on Wednesday but I still need around ten questions and the picture round and music tape still need to be done. If anyone wishes to contact me between now and Thursday night with suggestions, comments or anything at all you can as always leave a comment on this site or email me at quizard_97@yahoo.co.uk Don't forget to check out the joke, it is a genuine job application submitted by a 17-year-old to McDonald's and it's a doozy.
