Chris: enjoys a pint!

It was St Patrick's Day on Tuesday and despite the temptation to bunk off and spend the day in a beer garden, we all made it into the office... well, almost all of us.

Chris managed to wangle the day off, having worked on Monday instead, and he didn't wait long before he started to rub it in. At 12pm on the dot he texted us a picture of himself in the pub and revealed that he was already on his third pint!

Trev's phone has also been inundated with texts, including one from the Mackem Mover!

After watching the newest dancing sensation in football - nine-year-old Matthew Millard - bust some moves on Saturday's show, he decided to text Trev to remind us that he is still the undisputed King of dance in the North East.

Apparently he is going to be in a new T-Mobile viral in the next couple of months after winning the Tyne-Wear Dance Off back in December, and we can't wait to see his latest moves!

Meanwhile, Bobbie has been getting a bit hot under the collar this week.

He is currently on a mission to prove to everyone that he is a lot smarter than his appearance on The Weakest Link a couple of years ago would suggest, and was less than pleased when Lisa asked him what grades he got at school.

IQ

Dev suggested last week that we should all take an IQ test after reading that Frank Lampard has one of the highest IQ's in football and although we haven't got around to it, Bobbie has already made his own list based on who he thinks the five smartest people in the office are!

We're not sure what the criteria was, but needless to say he was in the top five!

Outside of the Office and it was a bad week for Dave, after his 'classic' VW van started to fall apart on the motorway.

"It only had its M.O.T a few weeks ago and then all of a sudden the wheel bearings went and the front axle broke!" a distraught Dave told us.

To perk himself up he went shopping and bought himself a kettle, but with the exception of that his weekend was apparently 'about as exciting as one of Graham's weekends'!

Now normally that would probably involve a bit of D.I.Y. or painting and decorating but this week Graham went all rock 'n' roll on us and had his ears syringed!

Apparently it didn't hurt one bit but gave him a 'nice warm feeling' instead. Nice!

See you next week.
