Zombie has a particular meaning as a song and was written with a particular message in mind. I'm not even sure how I feel about the cover version/the rerelease that was going to happen before Dolores passed away...Having grown up here where the Troubles were a constant thing, I will always see Zombie as a protest against killing innocents to make a political point. But NI is and always will be extremely complex. I feel like Zombie belongs in that context, rather than being repurposed for Syria or other conflicts.
Lots of research pictures for an Ancient Rome project, maths and English grammar worksheets etc (set work for home schooling) cannot be printed because or printer decided to be EVIL and just mess with our heads. Two days of fiddling, wasting paper, jammings, rude words and headache.I have wasted so much time copying worksheets (using handwriting) to prepare home lessons. I think we are going to order a new printer tonight... In other news, I cut a toilet-roll tube in half to make two mini Scuta (scutum = Roman shield) and had a bit of fun painting them; it was a task meant for my kid to do, but *I* NEEDED the diversion!!!
Okay, so I and the chap with whom I do the morning shift have been bending over backwards for weeks to keep stuff ticking over at work - without us two, that place would have gone under - we went above and beyond yet again today and did a ten-hour shift, along with everything else we've been doing for the past 6 weeks, working like dogs, basically... and we've not been paid. To really add insult to injury, we found beer bottles strewn about the office. So the boss turns up during the afternoon shift and has a bash with his buds, and we hear nothing whatsoever from him for weeks; we just turn up, slog our guts out and don't get so much as a "thank you" or even our wages. Well, I'd like to see how he thinks he can get on without an engineer and a wiring technician, because if we don't get paid by the end of the month, then the pair of us are out of the door.

How irresponsible can your boss be???
