Afternoon everyone!

Well it another fun Friday and the Gadgets Towers folks are nearly ready to pack up and enjoy the weekend, which is even meant to be sunny!

This week Mandy has been away on holiday so the office is a little quiet. As Monday was a bank holiday we started our short week on Tuesday. What with the free delivery at the weekend the day was busy. Dirk was updating me with his success in the 10k race he ran on Monday!

The highlight of the week was Wednesday. Having started off the day with a double chocolate cookie (yum) it also was the champions league final. For the girls this meant a night of peace and for the boys a night down the pub doing some male bonding! As Dirk and I debated on who should win…I said Barcelona, and he said Man U. Never the less our predicted scores were made and I set off to the pub to watch the game.

Come Thursday and I was happy to see that Barcelona won. Dirks predicted score of 2-0 was correct (if not the 2-0 victory for Man Utd that he wanted…) so smiles all round the office. Also on Thursday I also was chuckling to see the latest Katie and Peter fiasco! Yes Dane Bowers is sneaking back on the scene which had me and Dirk fully convinced we think this is all just media set up!

Well its Friday today and the week has flown by. Today me and Dirk are having a differ of opinion! After watching the last episode of extreme male makeovers last night it got us talking about the subject of male vanity. For those of you who have not seen it, basically the presenter Tim Shaw examines all the different things men have done in the name of vanity to get him looking tip top. may I add to the extreme of drinking his own urine!

Long story short at the end, in my opinion, this guy looked amazing (see before and after pics below)! Fresh faced with fake tan sporting a nice healthy body with no facial hair. Were his wife and friends happy? No! I’m more than sure she protested through her insecurities of him now looking better and more attractive to other women. Dirks point was that fake tan will always induce ridicule from his friends?

Personally, I see it a must that men take as much pride and attention women do.. whereas Dirk says any man spending that amount of effort will be joked and laugh at by mates. You can’t win ha ha!

Anyway whether its fake tanning or slumming it on the couch, enjoy your weekend and the weather!
