    Currently hiding in the car hoping the rain will stop so I can walk to the office, but looks unlikely (rain, not office).

    Not looking forward to a day of fire fighting, I'd rather be stoking it.

    pineapple powered brekkie, followed by a pleasant walk around frosty park, watched the ducks on the lake, listened to the stream burble, watched the sunrise, headed to a cafe to sip espresso and read the cartoons in my inyt

    will try to maintain the resulting feeling of gemütlichkeit

    Gopping here. I claim to be in the wettest part of the UK.

    Off to the sticks. Must order armoured cable - mile of it which will finally sort long garage tripping leccy saga. I guess 46 years is not bad for old style twin and earth.

    Hes WFH alfresco style, aka in the garden getting a tan.

    Equally gopping here I thought it was foggy in the distance, no it was misty at home and heavy rain coming to work. Ducks seem pleased though.
    Quietly smug having resolved some bike related issues saving myself a fair few pennies and effort, currently plotting a route to christen the new setup.

    Coffee and meetings seems to be the order of the day, some webex with a US client later and some plotting with ze Germans shortly.

    Toodles!
  • Morning all.
    Much tedium at work. Might clean the office revolver again. Rain forecast later.
    Cheers all.

    raining cats n dogs here too. Suspect it will be a turbo session over a run. Take too long to thaw out.

    Any exciting things happened in my absence ?

    Awaits Pinno potted summary...

    Grey and damp down in The Big Smoke. Uni research continues on behalf of Stropteen in between work stuff. Currently battling TKOFFA who are trying to unload a big pile of FX costs onto us on a very flimsy excuse. They can **** right off.

    I like how her main concern seems to be that's it's devalued her house slightly.

    May not fight the cold virus, but fcuk me, I feel better.

    Work Christmas party done. Well, the company one. Lots of expats well pissed up. At a livery hall in the city, lovely building. Left at the right time. Slightly disappointed when I left, but delighted to be home now.
