Is it Just me or are we all suffering from a recession induced quiet spell that sees all of us with more time to be on TDO more often these days and talking about slightly more trivial subjects at depth and in more length than we normally do..this being an example of afore mentioned Triviality :?

I could talk triviality til it comes out my backside (in fact I'm sure I do on a regular basis) :lol: and as regards time on my hands I work 3 nights and they bore me now so I have to be dragged out kicking and screaming :cry:

It doesn't take a lot to confuse me and you've succeeded. What possible cross purpose have I achieved without trying :?

In an effort to explain myself out of something I'm not sure about here goes. I only work part time and that is weekend nights. It's quiet at the moment so it is boring, when I'm bored I'd rather be in the house than in my taxis. Then the call from work will come hence the expression of being 'dragged out kicking and screaming'. Chatting trivialities I've got down to a fine art now and seeing as the post was originally about chatting trivialities on TDO I thought it was a relevant comment :P

That would appear to be a satisfactory explanation.......you used the word nights with an 's' on the end.....it would seem you do far more than my good self who is full time, one night per week :wink:
