And let's not forget the superannuated pension. Ring the council and try to find someone to talk to at 4pm on a Friday afternoon.

it was when the weather was good it was, just me, the birds and the odd car now and then.

**** as a teenager I'd have loved it in the rain, I'd have listened to Staind and read philosophy under an umbrella and thought about how no one else gets it.

Straight-down rain though, even as a teenage emo I hated wind. HATE. I feel like it's attacking me on purpose.

The fact that a council was paying someone a wage to sit and count some cars sounds like a parody though.

Ahh true any job that involved being an arsehole must be the most uncool. "Can't pay? We'll take it away!" types too. Remember this guy?





One of my favourite moments of that series was when Luke S(?) had to say "...Chris got pied..." in the diary room during the no laughing task

BB: "...who got pied...?"

"....... ... Chris got pied"
