Damn, it's time to get ready for work already. Hopefully it will be a cruisy shift and I don't have to work too hard. So if you guys could do your best not to set things on fire, crash your cars or get your cat stuck up a tree that would be great.

I’ve been gardening all day and now cannot move from couch, so there’ll be no risk of any of that over here

so jelly, I love gardening

That sounds good, stuck on couch is usually an ambulance job. Unless you are really heavy and need some burly firefighters to hoist you up I won't need to do anything.

Just do your best, that's all we can ask for. But if you do decide to do something try to at least make it interesting. Get stuck it the chimney pretending to be Santa or something.

Chimneys are for rich people.

So the Santa story is just your cover for trying to rob the place and steal all the expensive Christmas presents? Clever.

Rumour has it the big man never went down chimneys because he was taught lock picking while doing a stint in juvie when he was a young lad.

Will try my hardest. Hopefully the rest of society does too!
