Another Saturday Night in....

The hardest part of having sprogs
Is having no privacy - the little sods!
When you're feeling fruity and need the deed done
They're always awake and stop your fun

Now I'm not complaining they're my lovely kids
But sometimes you just have to get rid
Of the little angels to someone dear
So you can have your hubby near

When they're small and get very tired
To bed they go while you are wired
But when they get to the years of teenager
You might as well go celibate I'd wager

So you snatch what moments that you can
Together alone as fast as your man
Can manage to do it before they come back
And you must get out of the marital sack

And pretend the house you've been busy cleaning
Your red face from fast work is quite rightly beaming
Cooking their dinner with a smile on your mouth
They'll never guess what went on down south ;-)

Panic at the office....

How excited was I on Monday morn
To start my new job - my best suit I'd worn
I buzzed on the bell at my new work door
A big massive grin on my face I wore

They were all so friendly and happy they be
Oh my word my inner self is free!
I sat at my desk and logged on to the PC
And chuckled away - I is happy is me

Then the deep hidden panic began to rise
Oh God all the stuff I'd have to revise
The structure, the policies and organisation
Oh thank god I had Daisy to conversation

She calmed my nerves and said you've paid your dues
You know that this is the first day blues
You do your job well and it's just the reaction
To moving - this is your new life transaction

She was right you know - the next day was fine
And after that a jar of whiskey was mine
At the teams away day - the new girl won out
To a roar of staff "it's a fix" they shout!

So in conclusion I've made the very right move
Today was fantastic and this I can prove
I'm here on my blog bragging about
The new place I work as I love it no doubt! :-)

Welcome to the free world...

Yesterday I left my job of 23 years
Today I intend to sink a few beers
To celebrate the great escape
From the establishment who forced my fate

My ex-colleagues are talented folk
Very highly of them I have always spoke
The world is changing and not in a good way
And I wanted more than just the pay

I love my work and do it well
But the last three years have been close to hell
The many tasks I had to achieve
Seemed impossible to believe

I wish my ex-colleagues the very best
Because their patience must pass the test
In the years to come they must do more with less
And for little reward and lots of stress

But to you all I must point out
There's more to life, I have no doubt
So take a risk and hope it will pay
Because life is short and its the only way

To ensure your enjoyment and many happy years
So come on all you stagnant peers
Stand up and let your inner self speak
And get the lives you deserve and seek

I shall very much miss you all
But you can catch me here on my blog wall
To keep up-to-date and in touch
