Curly Dreads!
I curled my dreads this weekend - I washed them on Friday, and plaited (braided) them while they were still dripping wet. Took them out of the plaits this morning, and voila! Curly twisty funky dreads :-)

Things I Learnt At Work: Part Two
1) How to pull a pint of real ale. Honestly – I used to fib and tell people they weren’t on, just to avoid having to pull one. No more!
2) When the music player freezes, it results in lots of Rage Against the Machine; Red Hot Chilli Peppers and other ace music being played. Best part? No-one could turn it off.
3) I learnt how to print off a receipt for cash payments
4) Monday 3pm shifts are great to work if you like standing around doing not a lot for long periods of time. I don’t.
5) You can never clean down a bar too often…
Until next time! (Which’ll probably be next Monday, 3pm…)

Things I Learnt At Work: Part One
Some of you may know that I currently have two part time jobs, one of which is in a student bar. Yesterday while I was working at said student bar, I learnt some things. Here they are.
1) Joes Bar, the award winning bar I call my workplace, and the place where I spend my wages, is actually supposed to have an Italian theme. Hence the pizzas, pasta dishes and no burgers. It’s also supposed to be obvious. Err..
2) A continuation of 1; there is no hope in hell of us changing it to a steak house.
3) We have a Guinness nozzle safe behind the bar. This is actually amazing! A safe for a beer tap nozzle! Awesome.
4) The chefs can be bribed.
5) I love bar work. I already knew this, but I feel the need to reaffirm it. I love the atmosphere, I love the chat, I just love bar work.
This is all for now. I’m off to continue to catch up with the ‘Granny A Day’ Crochet Project!
