The pavement was still unavailable this morning, as Virgin Media were continuing to dig up the street.
I therefore had to take another detour to work. My journey to the office was a tad less stressful than my ride home the night before. Firstly, it was daylight. I also knew the route to take, so didn’t find myself lost in the backstreets of Weston.
The diversion did, however, add time to my journey – approximately 10 minutes extra each way.
This may not seem a lot, but considering I can normally make the trip in just 8 minutes, that is a 125% increase!I therefore feel that Sir Richard Branson should have to pay me for my wasted time – a grand total of 20 minutes…
A quick search on Google revealed that Richard earns an annual salary of $6,450,000. This can be broken down to roughly $736.30 an hour. For 20 minutes, he will earn $245.43. I feel I am entitled to this.
At the current rate of exchange, I am set to receive £190.53 – although I’ll just settle for a Hive webcam. I’ll even use Virgin Money to change the dollars into pounds.
If you are concerned that Rich will suffer financially and be unable to feed his family, as a result of my pay-out, consider this – all I am asking for is 0.0038051162790697676% of his annual summary. Needless to say, he wouldn’t be forced into visiting a food bank.

There is a well-known saying that there's 'no such thing as a free lunch'. That may be true, but it is possible to get the thing you eat the lunch out of totally gratis.

The team tasked with removing my household recycling clearly dislike me...
A week or so ago, they appeared to drop kick a bag full of our rotting food down the street, before leaving it for Claire to clean up.
Most recently the good-for-nothing-so-and-sos left behind our cardboard recycling, despite taking away all our neighbours' rubbish. I guess... - Veggies Are Not Vegans
Something which is starting to increasingly 'get my goat' is companies who appear to believe that vegetarians are the same breed as vegans.
I am in the former if the two and have been so for two years. My wife has been a veggie for as long as I have known her.
We are most definitely not... - Doing A Rubbish Job
Cheers to the refuse collectors at Bath & North East Somerset Council, for leaving the street in a worse state than it was in before they arrived.
... - Ranting And Raving
There was an illegal rave in Bath last night.
Judging by the reaction of local residents on social media, this was undoubtedly the biggest event to take place here since Asterix visited the City in 50 BC.
Unsurprisingly, the vast majority have been condemning the rave, with any excitement the result of outrage and not illegal drugs...
About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
