Well done Chris, you t*** you! Who'll be wearing the sick tee shirts next year then? Where did he get this sudden rush of altruism from, was he drunk?
Thanks guys, I'll pass on your best wishes. I dare say it'll help keep his chin up whilst they rev up the Makita 10mm SDS.
Was he drunk? Erm, yes I believe drink, and that other great male motivator, sex, was involved. It's a long story but it all goes back to his days at Surrey Uni, where one drunken night in the Union bar, he signed on to the Donor Program to impress a female who he quite fancied. Having had his wicked way, he neglected to take the necessary step of signing off the program. A basic error, and one which is about to cost him dear.
Anyway, fast forward ten years, and having completely forgotten about it, he was somewhat surprised to be contacted by the Anthony Nolan people asking him to come in to give a blood sample. He was told there was a low likelyhood he would be of any use to them, so was initially hopeful he wouldn't be needed. Anyway, it turns out he's a very good match and to his very great credit, he had no hesitation in saying yes.
Having said that, the sanctimonious bastard has being lording his moral highground over us and telling all and sundry in the pub "I'm saving a kiddy's life you know...". I mean smuggness, it's not a very nice characteristic is it?
. I've told him I can't wait to use his hollow skeleton as a xylophone.
Anyway, all of Team Zarse are pretty proud of him, but when you see him next, don't forget to punch him in the pelvis!
