hmm, seems it is raining, to come there will be more rain, some rain, and a bit of rain, followed by rain, then it will rain

    Monday, wet, grey and a pile of work awaits. It can only get better from here.

    At least the ribs are on the mend which is just as bloody well as I've been talked into a pre Christmas downhill trip.

    Morning, crisp and bright but -4 here. Hound brought up his food yesterday at about mid day so we didn't feed him last light (as per internet wisdom) and he's very excited about breakfast this morning, on the plus side he is very obedient when he's hungry...

    Where are you going Stevo?

    Went to a talk by Doug Scott who was the first to climb Everest via the SW face (along with Dougal Haston), great story and a nice guy, makes me wish I was any good at climbing. Came away with a couple of signed copies of these shots of Dougal taken by Doug:

    A fairly heavy weekend was had so feeling a little delicate today.

    I think the highlight of today will be some ironing.

    Rain and minor flooding issues here, minimal motivation today. Plus side I have steak for dinner.

    Great pics Hayden

    Working from home as the builder is here to start the bathroom, which was handy as the drain in the street was blocked and flooding. One call to the local council and it's sorted - exceptionally surprised!

    Later is dads taxi work

    Contemplating getting up, ready for youngest to appear like drowned rat after walk home from school. Will then get ready for number 2 of 3 night shifts, hopefully better than last night as server issues crippled the factory. Suspect software upgrade ?? Wouldn't like to explain that away if it's true.
    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    Evening folks,
    Working from home today, very dull. Girl managed 4 hours of school which is good. Feels like we've turned a corner, but I've said that before. Boys parents evening tomorrow, so he's being overly nice. Feels odd going to a school parents evening for an 18 year old lump. Last one for him, lucky sod.

    Your ribs have healed and Chelski are temporarily top. However...

    A DH run has been planned and we have the xmas footy schedule to get through.

    We've got a really tough Xmas fixture list - West Brom, Sunderland, Palace, Bournemouth, Stoke.

    DH is another question all together...
