...it is granting me the opportunity to experience a truly novel feeling.
Hot Fuzz is great fun - which means I agree with Dom.
Typically, it only requires one of the two of us to state we agree with something and the other is simultaneously silently, discretely or publically coming up with reasons why they don't. I'm pretty sure it isn't deliberate, but sure as eggs is eggs, when one says up the other says down. Since we've known each other, there is no issue I have known the two of us to agree with each other on, and now the British film industry comes in from left field and supplies the answer. I don't know what the world's coming to. We'll be running LARPS together next.
Is it unacceptable for two different characters to have the same theme tune? One of the tracks off Avril Lavigne's new album matches perfectly with the human guard I have planned for autumn 2009, but Emma thinks it fits for Tempest as well. She found the track, but I suggested it for the guard before she pointed out she was considering it for Tempest. Does she get it, because you can only really assign a song to one character and she has every variation on having found it first? Or do we both use it, on accounts of the fact that at the rate characters progress these days she'll be rank nine hundred and thirty seven before he sees the light of day, so never the twain shall meet?
It's a good song - and while I know that Avril Lavigne and good song don't often appear in the same sentence, she does occasionally get her head into gear and write something that has vaguely three-dimensional lyrics.
I have spent the last three days of my life attending a training course that I thought would take half an hour, and of which I have already received instruction on the salient points. To my eternal surprise, it was probably the most interesting time I have spent since I started with HMRC. I learned one new thing, which was gone over in ten minutes, and already knew the rest, but therein lay the beauty of it. This offered me cast-iron proof that everything I had been doing has been absolutely correct - I really do churn out between a hundred and two hundred percent more items than my work colleagues, and it isn't down to the fact that I'm rushing and doing a slapdash job. It's down to the fact that they would have trouble matching wits with a stuffed aubergine.
I want a better job, and I'm beginning to think I deserve one. How I failed the first round of their graduate recruitment scheme last year becomes ever more mysterious.

Personally I find the whole disagreeing thing just bizarre anyway.
Congrats on being proven right in such a satisfying way with respect to work, hope you can get a better job if you look for one.
Also, SWAN!
