Bob Geldof

Overheard in the canteen -

Muzza - That Bob Geldofs daughter's fit.

Daniel - Who's Bob Geldof?

Muzza - He was in that band, U2 wasn't it?

Me - No, it was the Boomtown Rats.

Daniel - Never heard of them.

Muzza - You know that bird Paula Yates?

Daniel - Nah.

Muzza - She was married to Michael Hutchence.

Daniel - I've heard of him, who is he?

2.

Cameron - Are you going to see Starsky and Hutch on Saturday?

Spike - Is it on?

Cameron - Yeah, at the town hall.

Spike - Is it a cartoon or something?

Cameron - It's an old skool cop show.

Ira - They used to drive a red car or something.


Are they just doing this to me to make me feel older and more depressed?

Is it not enough that I'm the new boy among a largely young male workforce?

They have their lives ahead of them, mine is largely spent and still they taunt me.

About Me

Despite compelling evidence to the contrary this was never meant to be about either beef or cheese, subjects in which I have little more than a passing interest. It is true however that the fates have recently conspired to find me work at a cheese factory but this is little more than a cruel, coincidental joke told at my expense.
